Lately I’ve been feeling so alone and isolated. My grandfather recently passed and that really took a toll on my mental health. I just feel like i have no friends, the one close friend that I have always cancels and never shows up on our plans. I want to unfriend her but shes all i have and we always have so much fun together. I have no boyfriend nor am I talking to anyone. I hate seeing no notifications from people I hate being able to sleep to no random calls. I’m still young and i’m trying to wait it out but I just can’t anymore. I don’t plan to self harm or anything I have never done anything like that but I just want to feel happy again. Any ideas to help me?

Tough and sweet and sensitive
I feel like a fake sometimes. I get told I seen so confident and outgoing and brave and like nothing can hurt me. But god things really do get to me sometimes....
Hey there. I understand that you're going through a difficult time, but things will improve. When I lost my grandmother, it was a challenging time for me. Although I was pretty young, I was devastated by this unexpected event. But, gaining support from others was not always easy for me. I didn't have many friends at all and nobody to talk to. The only advice I can give you is to work on yourself. I know it's hard, but showing yourself love and making yourself feel good about yourself can improve things for you. As I am writing this, I am also going through a tough time because of my recent heartbreak which took a massive toll on my mental health and made me unhappy in general. From this experience, I put more time into myself and got back into a routine to distract myself from the pain. I did the things I love or things that make me personally happy. If your friend is not paying attention to you and making you unhappy, it will only affect you more. Especially if you're always wondering what she's up to or doing. There are always other people who will reach out, and there is always a way. Just focus on yourself, get back into a routine, and sometimes taking mental health days to relax and do things you love can help a lot. I hope this helps, and always remember, you are not alone. Best wishes to you.
