Why feeling sad and lonely especially now OP?

Stillwaitingforsummertime · 13/10/2024 01:39

Felt it for a long time but today has been particularly difficult and need a handhold

Aerin1999 · 13/10/2024 01:40

I’m here too

Chillilounger · 13/10/2024 01:45

Can you tell us what's happened today?

NiftyKoala · 13/10/2024 01:47

I'm here too

Allmychickenscometoroost · 13/10/2024 01:47

Sorry you're feeling like this op. I lead quite a lonely life too. sometimes rubbing my arms and shoulders helps to soothe, or even giving myself a tight hug by wrapping my arms around my body.

Tell ua about yourself @Stillwaitingforsummertime , I'd love to know more about you, if you'd like to share?

LibertyCaps · 13/10/2024 01:52

Hey @Stillwaitingforsummertime, I'm here.

I'll have a listen.

I've also been there.

Chat away.

Stillwaitingforsummertime · 13/10/2024 02:03

Personal problems, grief, marriage problems, I barely know where to start, my sense of self worth has been ground into the dirt. I am very hemmed in by my circumstances and I’m overwhelmed with trying to cope with everything.

OP posts:
NiftyKoala · 13/10/2024 02:04

Nights are the worst I think. Is there any that you like to do that relaxes you?

Lavenderandbrown · 13/10/2024 02:06

I’m here too op. Marriage problems really can keep you awake and mind just circling can’t they?

oakleaffy · 13/10/2024 02:08

Being in a bad marriage can be far lonelier than being on your own.

Maybe get free of the husband?

Things always seem far worse by night.

Can you put the radio on? Just the sound of another human voice can help.

DramaAlpaca · 13/10/2024 02:08

Heading to bed soon, but for now I'm here.

You're not alone, OP.

You don't know where to start?

Start here.

I'm here and listening.

I love to listen. Tell.me. talk to me @Stillwaitingforsummertime

Stillwaitingforsummertime · 13/10/2024 02:24

Thank you all. I usually scroll to distract myself or sleep to block it all out.
I’ve made lots of mistakes in my life and am now being held to ransom by them. Everything’s my fault and I don’t deserve forgiveness because my actions hurt other people. It’s me, I’m the problem, it’s me.

OP posts:
Theirishwoman · 13/10/2024 02:28

Oh no :( I’m sorry to hear this OP. Feeling responsible for shit circumstances is very hard. I’m sure you were making the best decisions you could at those times. I’m very sorry for the loss of the person you are grieving.

sending you a hand to hold

LibertyCaps · 13/10/2024 02:28

@Stillwaitingforsummertime

That's madness. No, no , no.

I absolutely refute that!

C'mon lady.

I've made so many mistakes. Really. But I always feel good about myself.

I do. I do think it's OK to like yourself.

LibertyCaps · 13/10/2024 02:30

@Stillwaitingforsummertime why is the problem you?

I don't believe that.

Talk to me.

Aerin1999 · 13/10/2024 02:50

you there OP? Keen to hear more…

Stillwaitingforsummertime · 13/10/2024 02:53

Because I’ve been through some awful things that have made me feel shit about myself, and I’ve put other people through my shit.

OP posts:
Stillwaitingforsummertime · 13/10/2024 02:54

I’ve made a few mistakes too many

OP posts:
tattygrl · 13/10/2024 02:55

There is never a point of no return, OP. Certainly not for someone who feels reflective and wanting change, like you.

I've overcome some things I seriously, genuinely never thought would change or shift. I love my life now. I don't say that to brag or rub it in, but to provide testimony that you can go from feeling utter despair and seeing no path forwards to really loving your life and feeling safe and free.

Keep chatting to us.

No.

No.

The shit you have other people have put you through isn't you.

Darling.

We've all made mistakes.

I've made ao many.

I still like myself though.

tolerable · 13/10/2024 02:58

honestly-my ruling planets appear to be chaos and disaster....The nicest thing my ma EVER said bout me is "EVERY one of your fuck ups are epic"...the lady werent wrong tho.
EEEEEEEEEeeeeeven IF its you(the problem) -knowing that is key to fixin it. Only person you can change is yourself so is actually a positive. i doubt you wanted or set out to hurt other people(?).....
I swear i lived 909 days in hell- scrolling , blocking, disassociating is sometimes....what you need to do.Feel alone and being alone aint the same. we are here.
Whilst some shits just irrversible n not always portray you at ever finest moment... its ok. feels super crappy right now...but....it passes.
am the least wook person on planet- seriously previously wouldnt have clickt the link...like i sid..909 days in hell- had to sorta STOP my own thoughts n this kinda offered relief..even slept sometimes.try it.dont fight it or eyeroll just do what says n ...be .....its ok. we all fuck up
