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 think the worst feeling is knowing that you've never been worth fighting for...friends and significant others just let you go without a thought....like you never meant anything to them at all.
Feeling so lonely and worthless these days. My life has been such a waste.

Cheer up my friend, tomorrow IS a new day. But it feels empty when you are down. I have been there . I empathize. Can you write three good qualities about yourself?

I can relate and I say to hell with them. Find your own self worth and don't let others dictate it to you. I finally learned after over 40 years of being used and abused by people all while I was looking for exceptance and just someone to care about me for once. Most people only care about others until they get what they want from them. That goes for family too! If you want a friend that cares I am here for you ! Hope you have a better day !

We've all dealt with loneliness and it hurts. My loneliness was most acute in my late teens. Like Simon and Garfunckle sang about the teenagers on a bus (or whatever) "Kathy", I said, although I knew she was sleeping, "I'm empty and aching and I don't know why." The terrible emptiness and awful ACHE that comes from never having felt loved. Did you ever see the old classic movie, "Marty" starring Ernest Borgnine? They show it on Turner Classic Movies on cable. Just saw it recently. An overweight man in his 30's is being nagged by his Italian mother to get married, and finally he screams, "Don't you GET it?" I'm fat and ugly! Girls don't like me! I'm never getting married!" But he goes to the dance hall one more time. And there he meets a woman who feels lonely and rejected as well. You guessed it! They rock each other's world! Everything changes!

I'm sorry-I think I know how you are feeling-when even so called family treats you as a stranger

Hi Missy, I feel I can relate to what you've said here. And whrn love was presented to me I didn't recognize it. But I agree w lostsoul in that it seems many people are just out for themselves. It's ok to look for people who are worth your energy. I've been making some changes myself. I'm done with soul suckers, energy suckers. I want to surround myself with more genuine relationships, where I am cared about and important. If its not the case, then those people don't belong.
