I think I can relate.

Does it feel similar to: being alone in a room full of people and then someone telling you you're not alone?

I feel that way a lot. I put myself out there, I put forth effort, and when I turn to someone I thought was there, they're a mile away. And then I think "what's the point?"

It’s difficult. It's difficult to be there and it's difficult to remember it doesn't last forever. We have to remember who we are: our strengths and value. But the stregnths and our value do NOT disappear. It's just clouded by emotions and thoughts.

You are valuable. Not perfect; but no one is. Your feelings are valid, but they do not define who you are.

“...Emotions themselves are neither good nor bad. They are simply our psychological responses to the events of life” Gary Chapman
