It’s pretty late at night, and I’ve been having trouble sleeping for the last couple of days. It feels like everytime I give my mind free time, it focuses on how cripplingly lonely I feel, or how I can’t talk to anyone, though all these thoughts are constantly running through my mind all the time so it feels like I should be used to it. I’m a pretty introverted person, and though I love my friends I don’t feel comfortable burdening any one of them with this.

Unorthodox Fairytale

Friendship
Friendship is the best thing in most people's lives. Friends = someone to relate to, someone to share your deepest darkest secrets too, someone to laugh with......
We are here for you. You aren't a burden. You deserve the world, you're unique and beautiful. If you don't feel comfortable talking about your problems with people, that's okay. The aforementioned people will help you even if that's just by being there because they care for you. You can get through this.
(P.S. I have sleeping problems too and can totally relate; this sucks. It's 2 am rn so sorry if this isn't legible or seems rude or something. I'm pretty sleepy.)
ReplyA lot of people will probably tell you this, I don't like hearing it much but ive tried it out and now I look forward to getting home to my empty apartment.
What skill talent or hobby do you have?
If you can't think of one pay attention during your breaks at work as soon as you have 15 minutes to NOT think about work.
If nothing comes to mind, what do u read about online? Ask someone like a parent what you enjoyed as a kid.
I went through thesse over the course of a few tough years after rehab amd a divorce. Realized how much I like to jam music and record my thoughts on a portable microphone, maybe to post a podcast someday. Or maybe just for me.
Either way, i look forward now to time alone and ive got hundreds of songs and voice entries recorded. Actually just got home from work now, gonna shoot a new video jamming on the guitar. Couldn't be happier. Hate to be contraversal but also medical mj has turned my attitude around 180 as well. Not sure where you stand on that, I was against it my whole life till age 30. For me it takes away the ptsd rage and anger that I turn toward myself- as I used to use that to wallow in my lonely misery. It got very bad after 10 years untreated, suicidal for the last few.
You might not know what you enjoy yet as loneliness can trick you into thinking you enjoy nothing. Guarantee 6 months from now - if you practice a skill every day, you'll be pretty good by then. The more talemts you work to develop, the more people will gravitate toward you to enjoy those talents, and your confidence will build.
This will take time. 6 months down the road in july you'll be glad you started learning [coding,guitar,piano,painting,etc]
Either way the six months will pass. Embark now on the missio
