I don't even know why I'm writing this, but I just feel like I"m not connecting at all lately. Not with anyone in 3d (except T) and not with anyone online. I feel like isolating and I don't know why. I feel like I'm on my own planet, alone.

Anyone have any ideas or suggestions?

I'm sorry you are feeling this way. Not connecting It must be very frustrating.

I don't know what to tell you, except keep trying?

I hope things start getting better.

I dont know if this would help, but, when I post something, I always appreciate anybody that replies, however, I always hope for replies from certain members, and you are one of them.

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{Angela}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} I get the feeling quite often, too. It makes me raise my voice to whoever it is I'm trying to connect with, or at least get some semblance of them having heard me. Yelling only gets me yelled at, so I keep my mouth shut.

Maybe in 3D you could walk up and touch the person you want to make that connection with? Not connecting

That's the problem. I"m only 1/2 sure that I even want to connect with anyone. Part of me wants to, but part of me just wants to hide. That would be less distressing if I had any idea why

For ME, those symptom would indicate a bit of a depression. But that's just me. Isolating, and disconnecting are, for ME, sure signs of depression. How about you? Take care of my pal Angie. Hugs, em

Hi SweetCrusader -- I get that feeling too. In fact, right now, I kinda have those blahs of feeling too detached from everyone and everything.

Like Gloria, I find you someone I look forward to hearing from and "seeing around' the campus. I hope you'll keep trying until something works.

I agree with Emski. Isolating and feeling lonely and disconnected are sure indicators of depression to me. That and sleeping a lot. Hard to connect with others in my sleep. 'cept for with my dream guy, but he's apparently AWOL at the moment. Not connecting

Please take care of yourself. You may not feel all that connected here, but you are loved and wanted here.

Hey sweet one. I am on with the depressed feelings board here. I think what has been helpful to me is forcing myself to do something healthy like a walk, swim, movie with a friend. You are a good crusader my friend, hang in there.

((((((Angela)))))) Do you know that you're my best friend? Even though we've only met in 3D twice. I really look forward to chatting with you, although I'm afraid I might lean on you too much sometimes. It certainly seems to me that we connect. But I'd really like to see you reaching out to more people who are near you though.

I'm really sorry you are feeling that way. I'm not connecting much IRL either, but I have you, and that helps a lot.
Love,
Wendy
