Lonely

[xXoblivionXx]

I've noticed that even when I'm with people I still feel alone. I'm not sure if it's because I genuinely think that no one understands or because I'm not opening up entirely. But I feel really unwanted and frankly I don't want myself... so why should anyone else? :(

I get the same feeling a lot. I suffer from depression, and anxiety disorders. Things that I have found that help;

Try to watch something, like a music video or movie that you enjoy that makes you happy. Maybe an old cartoon you used to like, or a comedy movie.

Find an outlet for how you feel if you aren't comfortable opening up to people, open up to yourself. Examples of this would be writing, art, music, etc. If you have people you are close with, (or any of us on here if you would like) let them know how you feel. Talk about it. Getting it out of your system sometimes helps, depending on the person.

Avoid negative people as often as possible. You don't need toxic people in your life.

Make a list of positive things about yourself. Nothing negative. List what you are good at, what you like about yourself (eyes, personality, anything.)

Take a nap, and try thinking of something positive as soon as you wake up. Think of it as a quick "reset" button.

xXoblivionXx,

No need to analyze yourself too much. The best thing you can do is be content with yourself. That helps a lot with loneliness because it allows you to not ask for any particular thing of yourself. Finding contentment in your life can be difficult, but you can totally do it. I believe in you :D

You've always got us on VT as well. We're always willing to help you out.

:)
