Loneliness

I’ve never done anything like this before and I’m very nervous, but due to the pandemic my diagnostic assessments have all taken a very long time almost 2 years. I’m coming close to the end soon ( I hope,) but I just wanted to talk about loneliness. .

I feel super lonely and there is not a lot of support out there for people that haven’t finished their diagnosis yet, and it feel like no one understands the sensory struggles I face and many counsellors look at me with two heads when I talk about things. 

 I don’t have any friends as I really struggle to understand socialisation. I just wanted some advice and to see if anyone else feels the same really. :)

  • aye i feel the same... at first i didnt mind as i felt mistreated and angry at the world/the rest of humanity but then years of loneliness irons that out and makes you crave some form of normality and camaraderie or a partner at least. the silver lining is that the solitude makes us more tolerant and accepting people, better people who would welcome anyone with open arms due to our starvation of company.
