Loneliness

 I have been feeling quite lonely, detached from my friends and family and like no one understands me. I'm not seeing my friends and family as much or spending as much time with them due to many factors I can't control. This means I have been spending a lot more time alone away from others. I am actually quite antisocial most of the time and I prefer to spend time alone but recently I have really missed spending time with other people. I feel so alone and like I don't have anyone to talk to about the things I like or do fun things with. If I ever do talk to anyone it's always about school or chores or stuff I am actually not that interested in. It has left me feeling really low, lonely and an outcast. I'm worried that if it carries on like this that my mental health is going to get even worse than it already is and might lead to an incident of some sort. I have absolutely no idea what to do about it so I was wondering if someone could give me some advice.

  • You’re beginning to address it here so things are getting better right now.   The challenge for you is to tolerate the change happening different to what you imagine it to be.  The courage you might need is that courage required to let time pass and the courage to trust that things shall be okay despite your catastrophizing.  For starters, every sane person is on your side. 

    if you want any other starting point I am on your side and wishing you as much well as is possible to wish another.
