Almost everyday, while in social situations, I always feel extremely isolated. As if I can't talk to anyone, and that no one understands what I'm going through. I've tried talking to countless counselors, both online and in real life, yet I can't tell them everything and I always feel horrible afterwards. I always feel extremely lonely and empty, along with chronic feelings of boredom.
It's as if nobody understands me, and that I'm completely helpless and drowning in a sea of death and sadness. I just need somebody to be there, but no one is. Not even my family or close friends. They don't understand it... I feel like I'm drowning in anxiety, sadness, and complete, emptiness. And that there's nothing I can do. |

You are not alone on PC! A lot of us understand. I have been there in social situations, to the point of avoidance. Which isn't a good idea, but I find connection here! I read what others say and feel connected to them. Maybe that will work for you. If not don't give up trying, there are many people like you. Try, that's all it takes. Yes its hard but start online first then start putting yourself in situations than will help you feel comfortable. Good luck.

Only you know when you are ready to reveal everything. Take heart in speaking about and working on what you can for now. The time will come when you will feel a level of trust with a counselor to start working on these hidden issues. If you feel anxiety and panic building when trying to do so, close your eyes, take a deep breath, and tell yourself that I am doing this for me. You are not alone and there are lots of people willing to help

A lot of those feeling come from early childhood and how you interacted with your parents. Your parents may have been to aloof and not there for you emotionally. Then your mind internallised all this. Therapy take much time, stick with it.

I suggest writing down your feelings at the moment it happens and then show it to your therapist. I've been down that road. f you keep working on yourself you'll find a silver lining.

We are here for you! There are people here that feel the same way. Be patient with yourself and give yourself some slack. It takes time and trust to build a relationship where you feel comfortable enough to talk to someone. Don't give up! Love and light
