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.

boredom..

Boredom is killing me.. All alone with nothing to do.. Drinking coffee all the time.. No one to talk to. Always checking up my phone to see whether someone called or not? I wish i could find someone . I cant trust a human. I cant live with these 'animals' anymore.. These ((people)) around me dont have feelings. I always wish there would be someone to ask me "how are you today" at least? I dont deserve to live? I dont deserve to be loved and cared for? I dont deserve to be hugged and kissed?? I have done everything to make others happy. But, when it came to me.. They all left me alone; me,, and my coffee..

Hey you do deserve to be hugged and cared for and until you meet the right ones to do those things you gotta take care of yourself and spoil yourself.

You absolutely DO deserve to live, you absolutely DO deserve to live, and you DO deserve to be loved. I don't know why or who put these ideas in your head, but they are not true. I know that we are not there to give you a hug in person, or kiss you when you need a kiss, but we are definitely here to care about you, talk with you, and support you! Lots of Hugs. GB

Take martial arts. It is easy to make friends there. YOu pratice with someone. It is easy to start conversations there.

I find myself feeling the same way quite often. Waiting for someone to call or text, wanting to talk to me or actually be around me. Loneliness is hard to deal with indeed.

I'm glad you found us here on DS. You do deserve to be loved, hugged and cared for...regardless of what those around you say..or don't say.

You need to do whatever you desire to make yourself happy. To meet other people, get out and do something you enjoy or always wanted to do. Hopefully, while bringing joy into your won life, a friend will also emerge.

Here's a nice article about boredom. I read it yesterday, and it has helped me tremendously.

Of course you deserve those things (virtual hug)!

As far as combatting boredom, I get on a bicycle and start pedalling. Are you physically able, and do you live in a safe area?

I also like to use video editing software to mix and edit music, particularly movie soundtracks/scores. It's really intense and generates passion.

Totally understand. I'm in your shoes, have volunteered, took classes, put myself out there--BUT---no one seems to want to be bothered!! My answer--keep trying, what is the alternative, more loneliness? At least trying puts you out there. Volunteering was actually fun. Yes I am still lonely, but if I didn't keep busy like this, I'd lose my mind!! Just keep trying, something will give!

I feel your pain. I'm bored so I'm always looking to see if anyone has texted me...nothing. Hardly anyone to hang out with. I hate being alone but I'm always alone. Sound familiar? So many of us are in the same boat. Don't give up. Sit back some day and daydream about a perfect life. You'll find it lightens up your mood. You are definitely not alone.

    I got an email from Kohl's that I had a 40% off coupon for today and tomorrow only.  It took me about an hour but I placed an order and got some great deals.  I have been wanting a new dress.  I like dressing up sometimes.  My birthday is coming up and I have dinner plans at a nice restaurant.  But, honestly, I'm a little out of control again.  I went through this in the fall.  I bought...

    Has anyone else noticed that clearly speaking and doing things intentionally is liberating because it helps combat the feeling of depression and a sense of hopelessness? Let me share a little more: in my experience, when those who have tried to project a hidden agenda that is obviously not aligned with integrity and well-being, it's best to be firm and speak clearly from self-awareness and...
