Hi all...

been a while since I have posted...I guess cause things were kinda ok and manageable but after a weeks arguing with husband and onset of depression, I really need some support.

I have an overwhelming feeling of lonliness. I have a few 'friends' but noone I can really connect with. I don't even know if they qualify as real friends. Argh anyway, I am so lonely and feel trapped in this horrible hell called life. Its never ending. I am 31 and all I can remember is mysery, torment and abuse. I can't sleep and eating enough to feed a small army.

I am also having severe abandmonment issues...I am scared the few so called friends I do have will up and leave me Maybe they should. I am no good. I keep calling them friends but really, all I have is 3 friends...so pathetic is that? I really feel like a loser

i feel you, I'm in the same boat.

I also have very few friends. Really only one friend and my husband and mother in law. I don't feel like I connect with anyone. I'm also feeling depressed and alone. I'm in major brain fog, can't work or relax or think.

I keep trying to think how to make new friends but I don't know how.

me too! I don't work and alot of ppl I have known have moved on. As a kid its easy....you randomly talk to other kids and hey presto you're friends! I know if I was to walk up to a stranger and say hi, wanna hang out? They would run a mile lol

Where on earth as adults do we meet new ppl other than the work place? And even when I worked, the ppl I worked with I just didnt click with so that was no help.

I have my hubby, parents, brother and 3 ppl I guss are kinda friends but still .....lonely. It fricking sucks :'(

It's exactly the same for me! I work but I don't connect with people there.

The best way to make friends is to pursue an interest and meet people there who share it. I go to a Block-of-the-Month club at a quilt shop. A bunch of ladies who love quilting are there for the next 30 minutes or so and we strike up conversations. Haven't made an outside friend yet but we do recognize each other now.
