Loneliness, please release me from your savage grip.

Justinek September 7th, 2021

Hi I am new here…. Not sure how this work but I thought I’d give this a try.

It’s like I have woken up from this nightmare to find out that I am in my mid 30’s

have accomplished nothing (yes that pains me to say). Has no family to talk to

no friends, and no partner. Where did my life go? How do I even attempt to fix

this. The loneliness just creeps in and never lives. I don’t even know what it is

to feel ok and have a regular life, whatever that may be.


ohhh well I hope to find people here to talk to.

Thanks for your reply… I didn’t think this worked lol…. Safe to say I have a lot of trust issues …


My story is a long one of abuse physical, mental… hard for me to relate to people. Always the kid in the corner… now I know I have to try to do something about it because I’m getting older so are my parents that I am supposed to take care of, they have done more damage to me than anyone, I still don’t have closure there, nor acknowledgement that what happened in fact happened…. I am having a hard time connecting the dots and freeing myself from the pain, the guilt, the regret … before it’s too late.


what’s your story?

Hi, I know exactly how you feel, I have no one either. No friends, no partner. I do have children but it would be nice to have a a life, some friends to talk too. It gets so lonely.

Always here if you wanna chat.

Thank you! It hasn’t been easy to say the least. How do I start over at almost 35? My anxiety and mistrust for people is too overwhelming to open up and make friends. I lack social skills, and I am a hermit. I feel completely lost and defeated. I feel like I finally want to do something about my life but I don’t know how to or where to start.

You are not alone... and its never too late. I met a couple in their late 70s . They've been dating for 3 years . They met online ... and celebrating life each day travelling. Never too late.

Thank you! I can’t help but feel I am missing out on life because of it. Hopefully I can pull myself together soon enough to be part of life instead of waiting in the sidelines

I can relate in a different way. I'm so lonely now because I lost my husband not to long ago. The loneliness is almost unbarereble. I can't imagine my life without him. I can't imagine ever being happy again. I don't have friends because I felt like I could never trust another woman around my husband. I don't know if I can ever trust anyone. I have little faith in trusting people, I always have. I don't want to get hurt.
