If you're single...

[Tellmeifimwrong]

...who do you talk to when you're sad/tired/lonely?

This made me laugh!

My dogs, a couple of close friends, Netflix, read books or podcasts ,

Mumsnet.
I don’t want to worry others or bring them down.

Do you have friends that share their low times with you? If so, does that bring you down or are you pleased they felt able to open up to you and that maybe talking through things has helped them?

I live alone but am never lonely. I enjoy my own company and have a busy social life. Not really sad often, if I am I cry it out and if Im tired I'm better just going to bed and will be better the next day.

Lots of friends but also not everything needs to be made a thing and lots of thoughts don't need to be vocalised!

I just take it to God in prayer. Hand over my troubles or sadness to Him, and ask for support and strength to deal with it. He’s never let me down yet, and virtually carried me for the first few weeks after DH died!

Honestly? I was single for a loooong time, I had nobody. My friends would not have understood (all married or coupled up), my mum was elderly with health issues. To my detriment, I mostly confided in Sauvignon Blanc. However, my cat was a huge source of comfort.

My dog. The kids. Friends.

I don't think the OP meant support unique to single people, but who single people go to if there is another adult living day to day life with them.

I certainly have friends who are also lone parents who I know can empathise, but sadness, tiredness and loneliness are things I can discuss with friends regardless of their own relationship status.

@CharlotteBog I have a sister I talk to but recently she has been very stressed about her own difficulties and I've felt less able to open up to her. I've never thought of calling the samaritans, might give that a try!
I ended up putting myself to bed at the same time as my kids last night and that has helped.

The cat

The cats sometimes.

If I feel sad or tired I can usually deal with it myself I very rarely feel lonely. I have a busy life and plenty of friends but I like my own company.

Sad - do something that cheers me up. Even something as simple as a favourite song.
Tired - go to bed
Lonely - never been lonely
