I’m hitting a real rough patch lately , being consumed by total silence and loneliness ….I have so many problems in the social world. I seem to be having trouble finding a place in this world . I sometimes feel I have done all I am going to in this life and have nowhere to turn, it’s ridiculous because of the support I have in place but still I feel this way.
Some of the friendships I have seem to be in place only because of the situation I’m in , I feel if things being different , my social life would also be different. I also may be over thinking some things . I still see how some people act towards me and I see them in other situations as they are totally different towards others. True friendship is a great thing and as of now I feel alone in my journey onward.
I truly need a direction to turn in ,to just put all I have towards it , and get past these feelings of destitution and despair . While a lot of people say it’s ok to be lonely ……It sure doesn’t feel good sometimes.

I wish the very best for you.. If not anyone, you have yourself with you always. Take Care!
Thanks H A…. 🙂
I am sorry you’ve hit a rough patch, from experience in being a “supporter” to someone who struggles as well, I know that sometimes you don’t need to hear words, you just need to know that someone is listening and hearing, that although people may not know or understand, they don’t judge the challenges you’re facing either. He struggles to find those true friends too…it is difficult. Don’t give up on voicing your thoughts and frustrations, even if only in your writing. Your in my prayers that this bend in the road will not be a long one.
What support do you have at all Tim…? Is there a community program available to join..(even if you’re hesitant to be around people in a group) Do you belong or have any wish to belong to a church ..as many have ‘single’ groups that have a lot of the same feelings you do? What about joining a gym club where you might interact and find a like-minded person?
These are just suggestions…maybe you’ve thought of them and dismissed them..but I know there is something there for you…it’s just a matter of finding it…I’ll pray of course…Diane
