Loneliness

lovingBirch549 February 15th

I’m so lonely. Therapy taught me to use the friends close to me and to talk to them and be honest on how I’m feeling. And that’s what I’ve done, but no one responds..no one knows what to say..there’s literally no one there to help me..I’m in such a lonely and sad place

AAh the beauty of therapy where they tell you do do X, Y and Z     without regard that your friends did not get the script..... this is a classic example of theory vs real life....

i remember when friends of all sorts responded and tried but it is now where if they do not know what to say and fear all will offend or be taken wrong they stay silent ...... to me i would rather have a comment that may not be that helpful then feeling ignored or like they simply do not care. 

i have one friend and she tries so hard says things that do not work but i would rather hear it and know she is trying then silence and head nods.

Yes I’m the same, and my experiences have recently have been met with complete silence. I do understand it I do, it’s a tough situation and there’s only so many words that can be said and not a lot of them make the situation any easier but it’s more the support. Just for them to be there. They’re not quite understanding that.
