The last few years for our family have been difficult I was diagnosed with a potentially life limiting disease, although I am currently in remission, lost my career which I loved as a result and had over the last 3 years 3 deaths of my closest family leaving me with no family and the worst part my dd attempted suicide. I don’t want to moan. I know a lot of people have worst things happen but its left me feeling so alone. I keep people at a distance now as firstly I don’t want to talk about everything (I do really but don’t want to bore people). Before this I was an outgoing funny (so people told me) person who loved to have a good time. Today after the school run I went back to bed as that was where I felt safest. I had months and months of counselling but it didn’t do anything for me. I just feel so alone and lonely and like my heart is breaking. I don’t want to feel like my life is over I have responsibilities but this loneliness I feel is all consuming. Are other people lonely and just not revealing that they are. How can I get myself out of this black hole. I can’t spend my life hiding in bed. Other people come back from bad stuff. Why can’t I?
