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.

Just read "loneliness" definition, for this group. It's so easy to see me in that short first paragraph. I could just be that. I know deep within myself --that-- hope lives and I can just exist, or I can LIVE.
Good things are inside of me. I'd like to share, if you're interested shoot a line back.
it's been so long since I've been on this site. well... here goes.
I am so disappointed with myself that I can't believe in the positive in anyone or anything. Sound familiar?
When I am less suspicious, sometimes I see my error. Sometimes people are really the " worst" that I thought of them originally.
So who wins? By being " right"- I don't win. I just feed my desire to be alone. I only win when I just open up and accept others too. Maybe I'm the worst to someone else's eyes also.
Recently I have seen how rich it could be to be around others. I want more of that.

This choice is an expression of who I am.
Life has made me hard enough. I like going against the flow.
To me, having thick skin doesnt mean being "unhurtable."
Being able to forgive offences and not become bitter....thats tough.
Lol. Thats my goal anyway.
Do you have any hobbies/crafts that you can get involved with..a way to keep busy but also to meet others with the same interests
You're support by reading, writing, and thinking, is valuable to me.
" persuaded" - not sure I'm there yet. But willing to be sometimes.
Your success with that goal is admirable.
I did read your journal posts about sleep. My sleep issues are so small compared to yours. I do realize what an immense impact that has on life. I feel for your challenge.
Your success with getting enough quality sleep, regularly, is a hope and a prayer I have for you.
Yes. I do have some desired hobbies/crafts. My interest and activity in them will return someday. I wish you continued enjoyment and success with your hobbies/crafts.
Thank you. When I read your helpful post, I see some me in it.
I do tend to crawl off and not come back though. It was a delight to read your message. I do hope to become more responsive to this site. ( as you dislike smartphones, I dislike texting- but I'll evolve)
