Had my ass handed to me
Hey
I don't know how many people have this problem. Finding people you can unload on and lean on for help and support. Most people don't want to hear it or won't show an ounce of sympathy.
I had my birthday on Sat, my friends took me to dinner and a movie (Gravity) it was okay but I live with my friends and it is not a happy situation. But I don't have an alternative right now. I decided to share with people I thought i could unload onto. But I was told that they are not interested in listening to my belly aching. I was hurt, cause I don't feel that anyone cares about me.
If I could get my act together and do the things I need to do to get myself where I need to be I would. But I have a lot of work to do to get myself there.
I feel very alone and no one cares. I understand why some people take their own lives, because no one was there to show they mattered.
thanks for listening

\"I feel very alone and no one cares.\" I feel that way too. That\'s why I keep things to myself and I prefer to be quiet. I\'d rather have peace over drama. If I need something, I\'ll ask for it. If I don\'t understand something, I\'ll ask for it too of course. It\'s as simple as that.
Sorry you\'re feeling down. Hugs to you
Thank you for the much needed hugs, Rosy. At least I know I can unload here
Hugs back
comforting hugs. Dear Lily, i\'m so sorry, that you had a rough experience on saturday, and didn\'t recieve the care, and also the support, that you seeked. i understand, as sometimes it can hurt us emotionally, when we reach out for support, and care, and aren\'t listened too, it can make us feel invisible at times. we must remind ourselves, of how strong we are though, for trying, and that even though, it can be discouraging when we 1st didn\'t recieve the support, we can definitely reach back out to others, there will always be caring people, who we find, to be there, when we need them most :) You can always feel free to write to me :) i understand, as i\'ve had some situations where i felt invisible, and not appreciated, and not listened too, and it can be an awful feeling. i\'m sending our my love, and healing energy,and comforting friendship hugs, from our home to yours. Take care, i\'ll write soon :)
Hi Chris
I find that you find out who your real friends are when things are not going well in your life. It\'s good when you can find someone who you can not only laugh with but who offers you a shoulder to cry on
Thanks hugs
(Just joined minutes ago) Boy, reading through some of the responses just in this thread makes me feel a little less unusual. I have a recurring stress dream so regularly, and no other dreams I remember. Why not fantasies? But, yes, I feel very alone as my divorce becomes final in two weeks. I have moved into a new home with dog pal; my soon to be ex lives about 15 miles away and we are still friendly. She wasn\'t happy, and neither was I but she had the courage to leave me last year. Now with the new home and settled in, I am suffering from a \"what do I do now?\" I guess the guilt and aloneness is setting in, where until now I was busy moving and making the new home mine. I have many internal conversations yet don\'t want to do most of what I come up with. Am not a bar guy - don\'t drink, and can\'t ever hear anyone in those settings, let alone attempt a conversation. No church interests me. Have to try meetup.com I guess but have some experience with it in the past and it seems the things I like to do are too solitary to find and make new friends. (photography, meditation)
I feel like my life ended. I realize it\'s all opportunity ahead but can\'t seem to dig out of this depression and anxiety. Had counseling when married for the marriage but it didn\'t keep us together.
I\'m a guy with lots of internal thoughts - my wife was not expressive. Not a good match? in some ways yes, some no. I guess no won.
You have people who care about you. I know I do. I have been away working, gone 4 days a week and dealing with a piggie who is real sick. I know how you feel about people. I feel that nobody cares and I have been supportive. I also chose to let go of a few friends who I took the blame for stuff and really it was the other way around. I recently found out a few things and now I am done.
It is never easy to live with anybody. It is also never easy when there are 3 in the house and you stand alone on things. I finally woke up and realized I am better off forgetting about when I did what you are doing. Of course it was all me. I am dealing with a very sick piggie, but you are a friend to me and I apologize for not being around a lot, but trust me, when and If you ever get out on your own, you will be better off. Plus, when you do get out on your own, it won\'t be easy, as I have almost been homeless, but I will tell you what, you will be happier. I was a fool to apologize for things when it wasn\'t all just me. I wish you peace.
