How To Cope

I lost my mum a few years ago and was abandoned by my dad when I was a baby so I don’t have any family really. I’m not the most open person emotionally and struggle to let people fully in. Is anyone in a similar position to me, and if so how do you cope?

@nayv Hi, I'm so sorry for your losses and that you feel alone. I can relate to feeling alone. I lost my dad to suicide as a child and my mom to cancer as a teen. I am now 39 and am married with five children, but I still feel alone and without the support I need sometimes. I am not close to many people in my family and have always struggled with maintaining friendships. I am a new listener but I'm here if you need someone.

Try to connect with people in your community. Engage in social activities. Develop good friendships. and Try to connect with listeners on 7 Cups. I hope it will help you.

Hugs!
