i feel so lonely, i have no one. no one really talks to me anymore i feel like im slowly losing everything. im depressed as well and i hate myself for it. sometimes i think id be better off dead. its just soo hard. always in bed. im always sleeping, and i just am so ashamed of that and feel so lazy. everyone hates me. need a hug tbh.
anyway, i hope you are all okay and im sorry for waisting your time.
take care!
You are not wasting anyone's time. I'm here because I'm lonely too. My name is Pea, by the way and I mostly post in the Journal Support Check In area. Every day I look forward to responses here because I feel like I'm bothering people in real life with my problems. Sometimes I struggle to get out of bed and get on with the day too. It sucks, but we just gotta keep trying. You're not alone. I'm here with you 🤗
I don’t hate you, and this wasn’t a waste of my time, your time or anyone’s time. Everyone has been that down before… people just hide their emotions because that’s what society tells us to do. But that’s just not how people work. That’s not healthy, either. Go and listen to some music, watch a movie or go for a walk. Just do something to get your mind off your misery even if it’s only for the time being. You’re not weak (that’s my fear), you’re not better off dead or anything like that. Don’t hate yourself for your depression. It’s literally not your fault.
@johnng823 thanks for the kind words. Also yeah will try all that. Also how is it not my fault tho? Think everything is my fault tbh especially my depression.
I see what you’re saying - but I’m going to turn that around on you. How is it your fault? Everything we feel- from anger, to sadness, to love are all just chemicals, hormones that run through our system. To say that you’re responsible for that when you’re only human is something you need to think about. You’re no more in control of some of these thoughts and feelings than you can control your liver. Or pancreas. Like I said, that’s not because of anything you did. Sometimes we have to remember that we are only human. That we do things that we wish we didn’t. Or that we didn’t think through. As long as you stand by yourself, learn from your mistakes, and have some self compassion - you can be unstoppable.
Hey Maps,
I, too, am a bit lonely but feel like I don't have anyone to talk to. My friends are long distance, making it hard enough....on top of it, we're all busy 20-whatevers (I'm 21), and most of my friends are my age or older.
I wish I could make your pain go away. Let me know if you want to talk to me; I'm here to help!
