Do you ever just want to be held tightly?

Not feeling well both emotionally and physically... I need to be held (((

I hate contact for the most part. But I kind of understand how you feel. Sometimes I want someone to at least offer, even if I pull away.

I'm sorry you're not feeling well. Hope things get better for you.

I understand how you feel, sometimes all you really need to feel better is being held, being close to my boyfriend makes so relaxed and calms me right down, so i can relate. Its kinda like being sick and wanting someone to tuck you in tight, same kind of feeling.

I hope you feel better

I too know how you feel, and only wish I had someone to do this. this has been the most awful year, and it's not even over yet. Hang in there

I absolutely know that feeling. I can't remember the last time anyone even hugged me. It is hard and lonely sometimes.

That's ALL I want.

HUGE hugs to you........... I am a very huggy person (especially for a guy). I think contact with other people is the ONLY thing that keeps me alive.

Yes, in that way I'm lucky to have my wife... She recognises now when I'm despondent (my face is quite dead pan so it's hard to recognise my emotions) and will come over and just hug me without saying anything.

If it wasn't for her I'd be in a much worse place (in addition to unfed or watered ) so I'm so grateful for that. Physical touch means more to me than words, I'm very tactile and being wrapped up calms me.

Edit: might be a daft suggestion but do you have a pet? Like a dog? Mine is forever wanting cuddles and attention which I find helps lift the mood too.

yes, i feel like it sometimes, but since i have no one to do it for me, i usually end up on those times crying in to my own pillow... sometimes i just want to know everything's okay.

want to be held and told that things will be okay

I'm also suicidial and being held makes me feel really safe. I cuddle my stiffed animal for comfort...

Cuddling my stuffed animal calms me enough to sleep but I have nightmares about my abuse and I just want someone to hold me...

I, too, need hugs. It is so helpful when I'm depressed. It makes me feel safe.

I really need a hug but there is no one around to do it. I am totally alone. I mean, no friends no family--no one.

I have family but they don't understand me. I'm emotionally alone. Being held gives me a feeling a security. I wish I had someone to hold me. Being alone and depressed and having PTSD sucks. I need a hug :''''''''''''(((((((((((((((

I feel the same. I know my family "loves" me, but it just doesn't resonate with me. And only a couple of my friends even know I have major depression (which I've had for nearly the last 20 years or so). I want to be held also. I want to feel accepted.

Yes, I certainly do feel like that. Most recently it was T i wanted to hold me. Felt like i was falling apart. She decided it wouldn't be good for me though....

Can i give you a virtual hug?

Yes I'd love a virtual hug. I wish I had someone to hold me. I can't take being alone...
