Hi,I haven't posted in a long time......Ihave suffered from depression for years.....I have taken medication and have gone through therapy but I feel this sense of emptiness. I have gone through some losses in my life but for the most part I have been blessed in many ways. I can't seem to enjoy life or what's around me, it's as though I have a cloud over me.

I have tried out to family and friends but I don't think anyone can understand unless they feel the same way....I'm not alone but I feel lonely as though no one understands how bad I really feel.....

Thank you for listening.....

You're not the only one who's in this kind of situation. In fact I think there are a lot of us around.

I never have anyone to talk to at all. I guess nobody wants to hang around with someone who's in pain and coping with medical issues in today's self-oriented world. I have depression, but I've been told it's situational depression...I'm very ill and I haven't got much income.

I'm like you, the people I do run into in stores and places like that have no way of understanding what a mess my life is. I suppose that if they did know, they wouldn't want anything to do with me...I'm too much of a "downer"...nobody wants that in their lives.

I try to keep busy with things, it's the only way I can keep going really.

I feel for both of you...the desire to have a close friend who cares and unconditionally loves us...and the realization that our loneliness negatively impacts our quality of life. You're right in that our society today is very much centered around the individual...and it seems most individuals are interested in others only if there us something in it for them. Thus, you,re not alone in your loneliness for many of us share the sand feelings.

    My 5 year old came forward on March 5th That another child in his class was reaching into his pants under his underwear and touching his penis each time he was in this class. The offending child and him sat alone at the table, clearly out of sight. He was trapped because he was afraid of disrupting class and afraid of the other kids, laughing if they knew what happened. The disturbed child...

    I was in an abusive relationship for 17 years it's the only relationship I've ever even been in so what I thought of as love im now finding out wasn't love at all and that sucks my dad says things like I just need to let it go and it's insulting frankly. I let it go for 17 years just because I'm no longer being abused doesn't mean the pain and anger are gone. I refuse to let it go when I was...
