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.

Back.Hi everyone.

Use to be in this group and one day I felt hey I am not so lonely anymore.Well that has changed and I am very lonely and feeling desperate to have friends.Which makes me feel even worse.Maybe I am feeling so needy cause I just ended a relationship and know I will be living alone and really need to learn to be happy and like myself.I realize this does not happen over night.But my biggest fear is I will be completely alone with no friends to talk to or go places with.When I try to make friends I feel like I over try if that makes sense I basically smother them.And then when they stop talking to me I am even more miserable then before I met the person.I realize I need therapy and yes I am working on that.But to have a friend to talk to and share life with would be so nice.Maybe if I get to were I like myself and can be happy others will like me as well.Oh by the way I am Jerrie and I feel like I am completely alone.

Hi. I have never had a friend to go places with or do things with.
At age 53 I am used to it by now. I like it that I am completely alone.

I am totally alone in this world. My depression has lost me everyone. It was okay when I was able to fake it, but when things got really bad a few years ago, I lost friends and family.

I wonder if there is anyone out there suffering in this way with both severe depression and lonliness? it is scary and hard.

Thamk you all who welcomed me.And I do suffer with depression and the lonliness.I think my biggest issue is learning to be comfortable with myself and to like/love myself.For alot of reasons I have put everyone before me even those who have treated me badly.I do not expect to change over night but with me finally realizing I have a problem with mself and do not like who I see in the mirror or basically who I am as a person I think its time to make some changes.Have any of you ever had a expierence that your self esteem is so low that if you are paid a compliment by anyone you think they are just being nice or out right telling a lie? I do this all the time and I realize if I keep seeing myself as a loser and ugly eventually everyone I am in contact with is going to feel the same way cause of my actions.Any how headed to bed going to e,n,t docotor cause I am sick hope I get over this soon feel terrible.Everyone take care.Hugs.Jerrie

    Can you identify these rom-coms from just a screenshot from the middle of the films? This is a multiple choice quiz so even if you're not entirely sure you can always take a guess and at least have a 25% chance of getting it right anyway, so why not have a go?! https://www.buzzfeed.com/alysaurus688/rom-com-screenshot-trivia-quiz
