Loneliness Support Group

Loneliness is an emotional state in which a person experiences a powerful feeling of emptiness and isolation. Loneliness is more than the feeling of wanting company or wanting to do something with another person. Loneliness is a feeling of being cut off, disconnected and alienated from other people. The lonely person may find it difficult or even impossible to have any...

I am always by myself. Even being in a 7 year relationship. It's like no one wants to be around me. Or be my friend. My phone doesn't ring at all during the day. I'm in bed all day. Which all in turn makes me push everyone away because it's like they don't REALLY care so why should I bother? What is so wrong with me that no one wants to be around me? I'm nice. I'm caring. But no one will ever get the chance to see that because no one bothers to give me a chance. No one cares. I'm getting so used to be alone that I don't want to be around people.

I know how you feel. I've spent years feeling that way, and still do from time to time. Part of the issue isn't necessarily how other people are, but rather how you feel about yourself. I found that when I felt worthless and as if nobody cared about me, I attracted situations that confirmed those negative beliefs about myself. When I started with therapy, journaling, working on myself and trying to do different things to build up my self-esteem, I found that things in life started to change. I wasn't feeling so bad about myself, and I was attracting better people into my life.
I know it's easier said than done, but try working on yourself and your beliefs about yourself. I know that it would help.

Couldn't have said it better. I have been there. Negative self talk is toxic. The more you pull away and isolate the more isolation you want. It's hard to pull out of this but take it day by day. It will get better and plenty of people will be able to see the real caring loving you. I'm sure of it. Everyone deserves to be heard.

I know exactly how you feel. I'm in there too. No one cares. And that makes you dont want people to be around. Because you start to be conformed with the situation. I dont know about you, but I dont feel thats right. I want friends, I'm trying so hard for that. Unfortunately its not working the way I wanted, but, lets keep going. You are not alone. There's a bunch of people just like you and me.

You have to find comfort in yourself and stop worrying about everyone else. People will come around in time. The biggest concern should be in your own ways. What do you really want in life? Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

The world likes to train us to compare. You can't compare yourself at all since everyone was built different with unique abilities.

I find myself feeling the need for attention myself for a brief idea that that makes me happy. But it doesn't last_ I crave more and more. I'm working on how to make myself happy so that once I can do that then I'll be confident enough to except others around me being happy as well.

I feel that It is about changing the way you think!

I don't know if that made since......I'm still waking up and kinda feel a bit dizzy today
