Can never find anyone when I need someone

Sometimes I feel that if I were more popular or something, people would actually care about me. On my various social media sites I see a friend going through a tough time and they get so manypeople supportingthem and being there for them. But if I'm having trouble with life I'm lucky if I get 3 people there forme. I guess if I was more popular I'd get more support in what I want to do or know someone gives a crap. It's stupid and vain but I'm sick of this. I might be an attention whore or something but it'd be nice if people remembered I existed for once.

It's the middle of the night and everyone in my house is asleep. The darkness of the room around me seems like a mirror and reflects me. I don't want to look at myself and see my insides and i start to cry trying desperately to push the haunting thoughts of myself away. All i want is to sleep but my brain asaults me with thousands and thousands of siamotainous thoughts. Why can't i ever find someone to talk to in this dark strange night?

I understand. I feel like people don't care about me because I'm not a very good person. I know it's because I am shy and I have a hard time connecting with people but I always feel like there is something else wrong with me. I don't know why it's so hard for me to make people like me. Or at least to feel like a anyone cares.

I go through such feelings sometimes and I don't think it's wrong to seek support.Support, care and love, that's what friendship is all about!But not having enough friends to support doesn't mean that you or me lack something. Being popular seems nice but it's not always true that people get true support becasue of their popularity.

Having a single good friend to care and understand can also be soothing.

I was addicted to Facebook and felt like this many times, people get so many Likes, comments, but when I closed my profile, I realized that all that wasn't important except the support and appriciation by true friends. In fact, now I have discovered that it's easier to connect with a few good and true friends without having thousands of people in the friend list.

I've felt like that before, too. It doesn't make you an attention whore at all. It just means you want people around when you need to share your feelings. This is a great place for that.

I'm the type to isolate myself so I'm alone most of the time too. I was okay with being alone until my anxiety amplified all the negative emotions and turned it into loneliness -_-

I feel like every time I need to talk to someone everyone else is too busy for me. I come here and all the listeners r offline or talking to other ppl. I feel so alone...

I had a near breakdown last night since I wasfrustrated with certain things. I posted something about it on Facebook and like 3 people expressed a little concern. What I love is that no one ever checks in. No next day messages or texts asking how I am. No one sends me anything to help me feel better. I try and do itwith my friends when they're down but I neverget anything in return. It'sstuff like that that convinces me no one will miss me if I were to disappear from their lives.
