Like someone else said, I find that helping other people helps to fill some of the emptiness in my life. I like to post in forums and in groups on FB, it helps give me a feeling of community, while at the same time allows me to help others and to receive help and support for myself.

Try to find something that you are passionate about, and take steps to make it happen. I recently created a community page on FB and it has really given me a purpose and I find that I have been coming online more and interacting a lot more. I want to help people, and I feel like with my page I am doing that.

Best of luck to you!
