I just really need someone to talk to.
Hi everyone, I joined this forum as I really need someone to talk with. I moved from home to another coubtry 6 years ago. I have friends and I have created my own family here but I am struggling balancing work and private life, I have no one to talk with as usually I try to be the one who is always "fine" and I am always acting as caretaker buy the truth is I am seriously struggling. I just want to talk and be myself without filters.
I am in my mid 30s.
Thank you so much for reading my first thread.

I happened to be the big brother and find myself in the responsibility almost like the head of the house hold, love my father but sometimes he doesn't stand for the rest of us and I feel like I have to help my family, because of that and depression I've lost my girlfriend whom wanted and I too wanted to marry.
I'm not as old and experienced but I'll just say that I think you have to open up to your significant other and let them know, just try to get through it together.
When you're in love, you start seeing your bae as an extension of yourself, so when they're hurt, nervous or really excited about something like getting accepted into a school or program they really wanted, then you experience the same feelings as them.

I have lived for 15 years with a loving caretaker, just like you. It often happens that such people as you or my ex end up having demanding and egotistic people around. Just like me. You put everybody first, being happy to give more than you take. And you are humble and quiet about that. I might be wrong, but why don't you try to speak to your nearest and dearest about what you really want and probably direct them or teach them to become as caring as you are. I regret not having had the chance to give back at the right time. It's too late now.

Sorry to hear that you are going through this. Sometimes I also feel the same way. I have close friends but sometimes I feel they are mostly interested in talking about themselves than in me.
I am here if you need to talk to someone. Love and light ❤️
