Lonely😕
Feeling really lonely today. I woke up just wanting connection, craving that feeling of being loved and wanted. It’s hard not to sit with these feelings and let them take over. I know I shouldn’t tie my worth to being in a relationship, but it’s tough when it feels like something is missing. I miss having someone to talk to, to share little moments with, to just exist with. I keep reminding myself that this feeling won’t last forever, but right now, it just feels heavy. If anyone relates, how do you cope with this? Just looking for some words of encouragement
@Priscella In what ways do you feel alone?
I find that almost everyone has hard days like the ones your describing. Feeling a lack of connection is common in day to day life. Are there certain activities you enjoy or people you could surround yourself with to take some of this focus and pressure off?
@Priscella you got many people around u cutie, and also... u're working for urself, to live better. everyone is going to come and give emotional support until u need it and once u're again left alone you'll understand that u're capable of everything and focus on creating a better life for ur own and i believe in you.
@Priscella I totally get how you feel, Priscella. Loneliness can be really tough, but it doesn’t define your worth. You are enough just as you are, and this feeling won’t last forever. I’m here if you want to talk
@Priscella I understand how lonely it could be. I've been there and honestly I had no one back then to be with me but I'm here for you. And honestly if you wanna talk or need me, just a message away
I relate. It makes it extra hard when the world has such a toxic individualistic view on everything. Typically people are met with being told “you need to learn to be alone” which is completely invalidating and not the point. Many people who are lonely have been alone and are used to it, that doesn’t take away the cravings of connection. I find most people telling others they need to learn to be alone are people who are in relationships themselves. It’s normal and natural to want connection and to feel seen, heard, and valued by another being, especially if you don’t have many people in your corner. I hope you find someone willing to listen to you and makes you feel valued and loved. You deserve it.
Hey. Sometimes I also feel the same. At such times I do things that I love to do which helps me distance myself from such disturbing thoughts. I love cooking so I cook and listen to some music. Sometimes I play with my cat and groom him. Nothing can replace the satisfaction of being able to open up to some loved one but this is where we are trying to live every day. I would love to connect with you and hear out what you want to say and also share mine.
@Priscella I think I end feeling this way often. Like I don't belong, don't have a team, but more times than not, I don't end reaching out to those who would be there to reduce the loneliness even if it's just a little.
Maybe you should share this feeling with someone in your circle. Don't stay lonely which means don't stay alone. Let someone in so they can care about what you feel.
@Priscella I can relate to this a lot, pri. I wish I had a solution but I don’t. You’re not alone though 🧡❤️🧡❤️
