Loneliness
Hi guys! I'm really struggling with depression becauseof loneliness. I have no one to talk to... I have no friends irl, just one friend online and he's going through a breakup, so I try to be strong and happy when we talk.
Also, I met someone I really liked, but I didn't realize he was having depression and I said some terrible things. I hate myself so much for it now...
I can't make new friends at the moment (I live in a small city with nothing to do and I work from home). In 1 year I'll move to a big city for my studies and I'm sure it wll be easier to make friends, but until then I'm falling apart....
@Ravenclaw89 I honestly feel your pain and loneliness is not something easy to go through. Have you ever tried apologizing to the friend you said mean things to? I want you to know that for now you could always use 7 cups or even Pm me sometime if you need someone to talk to? You're not alone and many people are experiencing the same struggles as you. Do you live with family? Or have you visited them? Sometimes when I feel alone it helps to surround myself with family; they really help, but I do hope you feel better soon.

Thank you for your answer!
I don't know how to apologize to my friend, because it wasn't really mean comments, just bad things for a person with depression to hear. For example, I once said "oh man, you're really trying to be unhappy"... I guess I was sick of his negativity, but that's a terrible thing to say...
I live alone and family makes everything worse... Especally my mom who has something bad to say about everything I do...
I'm really glad you choose to come on 7 cups! 7 cups is a great place to get resources and chat with listeners! You can also visit our group support chatroom with chat with other members too :)

Hi <3 I just came across your post while browsing the forums and I thought I'd drop in and say you're welcome to shoot me a message if you could still use someone to talk to about this!
If you'd like, set up a time for us to talk here (I've just recently started using this to help me schedule my chats): joshcrs101395.youcanbook.me/

Im so sorry your going through that. I know what its like to feel like you have no one and it can be so good overwhelming. I think instead of just waiting for another opportunity to find new people and make new friends, try to make some now. I know talking to people can suck sometimes but trust me, it feels so much better to talk to someone face to face about your problems than through a screen.
