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 feeling down today. I have a lot of anxiety over going out in public today. I don't even feel like going to the knitting store. My mom is no help to talk to either. I guess I could call a friend, but I don't want to. I'm trying to relax by listening to music--it's really the only thing that reorients my mind. I just want my mom to love me as much as I love her. I feel really lonely today.
I came from a family that wasn't warm and affectionate. They grew up in similar families. They have other qualities that are important,, like honesty and decency, being trustworthy - most of them, totally dependable - if you needed something, you could count on them,
but if you needed a big old hug - wrong family. They get to be who they are, really great people who happen to not be huggers.
But, if you're talking about someone who is very moody and critical,
those aren't things you just endure constantly, because that impacts your life negatively and interferes with your peace of mind. If those behaviors are bringing you down, you can just spend more time away from the person, or if you can approach them about it, tell them that it's depressing to be around anyone who is critical or negative for
no reason.
Sending you good wishes. Happy knitting!
