Something’s not right

Re: I can’t cope

Hey @Captain24 

You are not alone hon, we are here for you 💜💜

Re: I can’t cope

Yeah, it's a bit like that eh? Losing track of time? @Captain24 ?

 

Can't believe it'll be April soon.

Re: I can’t cope

Yeah I feel like I’m having memory issues @tyme. I have no idea of time. 

The good thing about April being around the corner is that daylight savings ends! 

Then is Easter next weekend. 

What have you been upto? 

Re: I can’t cope

I don’t understand what is wrong with me. I’m in a pretty good place but I

feel more alone than ever. 

Re: I can’t cope

I'm back 🙂 @Captain24

 

Sorry I was absent for a while tonight. 

 

Loneliness? I'm not sure if i've shared this with you, but I found myself in deep despair and loneliness. I had everything going for me - family, job, security, money. But I was alone.

 

Upon reflection, I've learnt that loneliness is a state of mind rather than being 'alone'. That is, I live alone at home, but I'm NEVER lonely. If anything, I want to turn off from people sometimes. Even now, I have a list of people I need to respond to, call, email etc. 

 

Well... maybe last night (or this morning), I actually had some 'me' time... lol. I stayed up until the wee hours of this morning hooked to a ridiculous game my niece downloaded on my phone... I haven't done that in 2 decades or so!

 

But yes, MH can cause one to feel lonely - even when there are people everything. It's like an emptiness and void from deep within that cannot be satisfied.... what do you think?

Re: I can’t cope

Hi @Captain24 

I can understand the alone feeling. I am mostly surrounded by family yet feel so lonely within myself. I think it is more the fact that people don't understand what I am going through and my experiences. In one way I don't want them to know but in another way it is nice to have people who can relate to you.

 

That is why I like spending time on here. There are others that can understand me without me having to go into details on things.

 

Please know that you are not alone on here. I know it is not the same as in real life but at least it is something. 💕💕

Re: I can’t cope

Thanks @Snowie. I think it’s because I’m feeling good and I have no one to share it with. Even just to chat too. 

Re: I can’t cope

@Captain24, it’s lonely not being able to share things with people. I’m at uni, I probably feel more alone here than when I’m in my room alone.
