Hello.

I'm feeling really alone and out of sync with life. I don't know where I belong. I'm not sleeping much and hardly have an appetite. I feel nervous to talk to anyone because I feel like i shouldn't be emotional or sensitive to the things that I'm struggling with.

I know how you feel. Know that your feelings are valid. Sometimes even the simplest things can be overwhelming and cause big emotions but thats ok! ESPECIALLY this year when there is so much uncertainty. It's ok to feel those emotions and it's important to talk about those emotions. I am new to this app but have already seen that people here are willing to listen and not judge, so this is a safe place to talk. Also, be kind to yourself... celebrate your strong days, forgive your weak ones, and don't be afraid to ask for what you need. 💞 sending love and support.

@Cloudshapes thank you. I needed to hear this. Its tough when the main thing I'm struggling with seems so stupid to others.

@cantforget

I have felt like that too. Your struggles are valid. I was very nervous to share my feelings and still get so emotional about my struggles. But they are mine and I am dealing with them the best I can. Talk to someone...it really does help.

@cantforget I too and having similar issues. I've been highly overwhelmed for quite sometime and it seems to only be getting worse. If you need someone to chat about not sleeping well, or loss of appetite, I can totally relate to what you're going through.

@conscientiousNest615 it can be so tough can't it? Have you found any strategies to help?

@cantforget It absolutely can be daunting. When I get really bad, for me it helps to have someone that I can either call or sit down and just have them listen. For me though, crying and letting out my emotions really works. For the most part, I like to get out of the house and go for walks, it really does help with grounding yourself and clearing your mind.
