I feel like I need more friends or atleast people to talk to otherwise I am going to go insane at this point with everything that is going on in my house. I'm losing control over everything and seems like i can't get through to really anyone, maybe one or two people, but they have their own lives to live... I even tried talking to a crisis line and they didn't even want anything to do with me.. Kind of hurts especially coming from them..  I mean aren't they supposed to want to help people?.. but yeah... i need help... Im going crazy..

I'm sorry that you're having a hard time. I am too. Sometimes knowing that you're not alone helps. I am here. How can I help?

i called a crisis/suicide line once---got stuck with probably a college kid, chewing gum on the other line; had to deal with a lot of bad stuff by myself.

i dont have relatives, have a woman in my apt building to talk to, and a bus driver when i'm on his route, that's it.

check out some quote images in a search engine, for some advice; i even make screensavers out of them; "relax...stress...grief" quotes. And look up helen keller quotes and her life to put things in context.

good luck; hoping for the best.

I certainly understand what you are going through. I was going to make an online profile over the weekend because I felt so desperate wanting someone to talk to. It would have been a very big mistake, as I am going through a divorce. I didn't have the nerve in the end to complete it I even look at this site hoping someone would be on.

I offer friendship to you.

Hello there, I can understand you. I don't have many friends, one really. and my boyfriend. I so want to change that, and I often don't know how to change it, I want to feel part of a community, to share with people, and give more of myself. Looking for ideas and support. How can i help with what you're going through? I am here to listen.

    89FToday it is again another hot day but cooler then yesterday. Since this is August it is to be expected in my neck of the woods. All the grass is yellow and flowers are starting to go to seed. I need to water my garden but this time of the year I'm so over it, which is weird because all my plants have their fruit or veggies.Sandra, this time of year reminds me of your Dad and his toms.
