I am not completely alone in life. I've been hurt a lot by a lot of people, I had a Mother that walked out on me, a Father that was never in my life, and a Step-Father that was abusive while he was in my life that went from physical to mental. Luckily I have amazing Grandparents that are still alive and still appear to care for me, also an Aunt. They are all I have and though I DO have them at times I feel alone too. They don't always understand the things I am going through but compared to the rest of my family they've done a pretty good job of staying in my life. What I want YOU to know is that even though some of us aren't completely alone nearly every one of us feels lonely at times or feels alone. Even those that are married or have a decent relationship don't always feel great about it. A lot of times we feel lonely because we feel like no one really gets us. So there again you aren't alone if you look at it in that aspect.
I'm not sure what advice I can give you. I have two jobs and meet all kinds of new people, and although I don't generally keep contact with those people I get to talk to them for that day and that helps with feeling lonely. I am sure if you would try to go out some even if it's just to the movies or to a place where you could play pool or something you would meet some people and it would drastically change your opinion about being lonely. Sometimes all we need is someone to talk to, and although you have your father he is getting very old and he's not going to be everything you need. You need to get away from that some times and meet some other people. Once you do that, I am sure you will realize there are people that care about you and are supportive and that you don't have to be alone.
I wish you all the best and if my post did nothing more I hope it at least made you feel a little better about your situation.

Hi and thank you for all your support. You sure have been through a lot and have a level head about all of it. Me, I'm an emotional mess. I think at times I have social phobia that keeps me from doing things. Work is all I know. My job is such odd hours and days. Depression and worry is the only activities i know on my days off. It's got to stop....I know. I just have to figure out how and when. When or if I go to the movies, I've got to fight the emotional stuff of wishing my mother was with me like it used to be. We did everything together. Wish I could run away from it all. I'm so tired right now....I'll close and really appreciate your care and concern.
