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...
Just diagnosed with PTSD and I have Sjogrens Disease. Very isolated because not a lot of people know about Sjogrens. Mine is more on the severe side and I take Chemo Infusions. I have 3 kids and no one has the time for Mother. Having boys are hard because their wives are wrapped up in their families who give them everything and not a mother in law who doesn't have the money to "Buy" them. I am not a drinker and that leaves me out of the loop. Just retired so don't have any interaction that way. Feel as if the world would be better without me. It is very hard when you just dont fit in.
Go find a square hole. :)
What do you like doing? What hobbies have you always wanted to take up?
I've just had my youngest child leave home. I still work but I can feel the isolation and loneliness, divorced, living alone. No reason to do anything any more.
I assume this is a temporary phase, and I will adjust, and then start going and doing the things I've always wanted to do. Just as soon as I figure out what they are... :D
Yeah I feel like drinking myself to death sometimes. It has come to that I have a drink every night. I never used to do that. Sometimes I have two. I hope it doesn't get any worse. My daughter is older too, 24 yrs old, still lives at home BUT she is never home, so I've got the isolation and loneliness, divorced too. I'm trying as hard as I can to fight it. Don't get too depressed!! Fight it!!
