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'm 20 and have felt lonely all my life. However I see most of the members in this group are much older then me. I hope me being here isn't disrespectful or people don't want me here :(

Of course man lonelyness is rough. Some people may have it worst than others but we all know how hard it could be. Welcome to the group :)

Loneliness is a feeling and it's pretty much the same at 20 as decades later.

This site is for anyone/everyone. Hope that it's all that you want or need it to be.

Well, I'm 26. I remember being 20 as if it was yesterday...getting drunk, going to clubs, getting in verbal(& nearly physical) altercations with the jackass who called himself my "boss". Fun times. I can't believe I'll be 30 in less than 4 years. Where does the time go? ...lol anyway this is supposed to be about you. No you are not offending anyone by being here...and if anyone is offended they can go fuck themselves because this is a forum for everyone. Everyone is welcome here reguardless of age, sex, gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity etc. Welcome to the loneliness corner of DS.

I don't think age matters when you are dealing with these types of struggles. Plus, you might get some insight from those older than you that might help you see things in a different perspective, and give you some hope. Glad you reached out and hope we can help!

I don't think age matters either, but you will find more people with things in common with your age-mates. All I want is a sense of community and opportunity to help. Asking too much?

I'm 30 and incredibly lonely. I have been looking at this site for a few years now. I also notice that a lot of people are older...but I think thats okay. Anyone who shares the same feelings can help despite age.

i'm even younger than you.. i'm 18. how about that depression?
But i also have this sense of not beloning, but i pondered about this a very long time and came up with the idea that when you are surrounded by people who are at a different life stage than you, you feel like you do not belong with them.
it might be on an intellectual level, an emotional level or just anything.
if you are not in the same stage of life you will only go so far with those friends.. you as a person can not grow if you are surrounded by people who are at a different life cycle
or am i completly of the chart?
