Good luck and keep trying, lost.

Try calling one of your friends if you can. If there is someone you trust, maybe someone who already knows and understands a bit about your situation.

It is very very likely that they don't know how your are feeling or how much a phone call from them would mean to you. Maybe they don't know you are suffering right now. Maybe some of them know but think that what you need is to not have people bothering you right now as you deal with it. They may think they are actively doing what they should, for your benefit. As we isolate ourselves we do actively push people away, and even friends who understand may take that as a "cue" that you would prefer to be left alone for a while.

Don't shut yourself out.
