WHAT IS LONLINESS

IT IS GETTING UP IN THE MORNING AND SITTING DOWN TO EAT AND NO ONE THERE, ITS GOING IN THE OTHER ROOM AND NOBODY THERE, IT IS LOOKING AT THE PHONE AND NOBODY THERE. IT IS A DARK PLACE TO BE, ITS CALLING YOUR SISTER AND NOBODY THERE. ITS LOOKING AT PICTURES OF YOUR LOST CHILD AND NOBODY THERE, IT IS PICKING UP HER CELL PHONE AND NOBODY THERE, ITS SITTING DOWN FOR LUNCH AND NOBODY THERE, ITS LOOKING AT THE WALLS AND NOBODY THERE, NOW IT IS SUPPER TIME AND NOBODY THERE, ITS WANTING TO GO OUT BUT NOT A LONE AND NOBODY THERE, ITS FEELING SICK AND NOBODY THERE, ITS LOOKING OUT SIDE AND NOBODY THERE, SOON YOU LOOK FOR THE BIRDS AND ANY THING MOVING ,IT CATCHING SELF TALKING TO THE BIRD, AND IT FLIES AWAY.

I am so sorry for your sadness. After losing my husband I was where you describe, but don\'t give up on life. I know it\'s hard but through the technology of cyberspace I am here. You are alone, yet surrounded by the spirit of love. Let your heart have hope in the grace of a New Year. Big hug to you. Sharon

Sis, I know I should be there for you more and Im sorry for the times Im unable to talk on the phone, I am working on somethings and soon my daughter will have her own place. i really am going to try to improve my heath and were trying to get moved so i can have you come to my house and stay as long as you like. I just need to get things situated. I dont know why your family cant see your alone and be there for you more. excuse me but they know how to find ya and be there when they are in need. I wish there was a group near by in your city where u can have friends. here we have group of ladies that meet at he church and they all work on one great big quilt. I say a lil companion lap doggy would help a great deal, they dont take the place of humans but they definatley are therapeutic. Its your home too i would put my foot down and go get ya a furr baby. yes it would be another task taking out to go potty but i think the benfit out weigh the cons. Im going to call ya in a couple hours when im not chasing after the kiddos. I am upset that none there helps you more =( Maybe u should just move to CO...we would spoil ya!!!I Love you and I will pray about your lonliness heartache. Bless Your heart and Know im always with you in heart and mind...Love your lil sis,Leslie xo (((heartfelt hopeful hugs)))

I am so sorry that you are feeling so alone. It is very hard when all you can see is the emptiness. Perhaps you can join a support group in your town, or volunteer somewhere. I have found that when I help others...somehow I feel better. Love and gentle hugs...Karen

One can be \"alone\", but not \"lonely\" - its all a state of mind.

Im so sorry you are feeling like this, i wish i could help you more shirley, i think the one thing you must do is get out of the house more, even if its to go for a walk, how about getting a doggy you could take for walks and would be company for you, youd be supprised what a difference a pet makes. Im always here for you, love you, susie x

You are always so sensitive and supportive of people on here. That makes you a very good person. For the past several years I have had many heartaches with my family. My husband works nights my kids had moved out to early and I have been talking to dogs and cats for years. They don\'t interrupt and they love you no matter what. Since that time we all been diagnosed and treated for ADD/anxiety depression and learning issues. All of these things were genetically handed down and then my husband and I created a real genetic mess for the kids. They have suffered a lot. On top of that I made some huge mistakes as a parent because I didn\'t understand our disabilities. Now we are happier and closer than we have
ever been. the key was medication and the time I have spent with my therapist. It will be two years in march and since my life and my health are so complicated we will be together for a while longer. She is worth every dollar she makes. Every day is a new day. If today sucks just hang on until tomorrow and if the mind stays open things can change for the better. My story is living proof. Give yourself some love and find a way to let go of guilt and regrets. We are here for you.

My dear Shirley: I am sorry you are going through this dark struggle. I think in one way or another, especially when I had my breakdown, I was in the same place. I know that there are still things I need to deal with that are difficult, but one step at a time--it\'s the same for you. Don\'t try to hurry things along. As for guilt--only Jesus can deal with that. Talk to Him and tell Him how you are feeling and ask Him to give you peace. Also, are you on any psych meds? I can\'t remember if you told me or not. Maybe you need something different now to help you during this time. It is worth a shot anyway! Just remember though that you are NOT alone--Jesus promised to never leave or forsake us. And you have your DS friends. I hope that will help you to look up to Him for His grace to shine on you.
Take good care my friend. I am here if you need me...
Blessings,
Kelly
