That no matter what I do I have no one there for me: if I decide to open up I get judged or ignored and if I decide to keep things to myself, I suffer on my own.

LIFE....

A listener I became really close to is suddenly gone and I don't know how else to talk to her. I'm worried I might have lost a very important friend.

@tluper6491 - I'm sorry to hear about this. It can be very difficult to suddenly lose a relationship we've been relying on and especially hard if we don't know what happened. I hope you will try to take extra time for self care and be good to yourself during this time. Also, if you'd like to leave me a message so that I can help support you while things settle for you again, you are very welcome to do that.

@OceanRest

I appreciate that but I'm scared to send messages to anyone. It's extremely difficult for me to open up to people and there's no way of knowing if anyone will even accept me. This listener was the only person on the planet I felt comfortable talking to about these things, and now she's gone and I'm alone and completely hopeless and can't open up because I'm afraid of being hurt or rejected. I have severe social anxiety. I needed her. I'm also worried about her. Is she okay? What happened? Is it my fault? Is she going to come back? I have no idea and I'm scared and alone and I've been having a nervous breakdown for two weeks now.

@tluper6491 - I can hear that it is very difficult for you. It sounds like a tremendous loss. I'm so sorry you are going through this. I can also understand that reaching out again or trying to form a new relationship can be very scary. How can I help you? Would you be interested in having a look at the grief community?

One thing Im feeling sad about today is my boyfriend taking his bad mood out on me. I actually had a good day for the first time in a while, but he was in a bad mood because his family moved today. He then accused me of being drunk, which he knew I was not, and opted to not talk to me. Im not sure how to handle this. He doesnt know how to talk about his feelings, but I feel as though I did not deserve that.

That my love life has pretty much ended before it ever even began. That there is no point in pursuing something that I do not deserve and that I will never earn. I'm too flawed for that to ever happen and even if I wasn't, I would still have to abandon my preference and pretty much settle. That isn't fair to anyone, especially to the other party.

Knowing the fact that days at the arcade, on road trips, at amusement parks, movies, concerts, on vacation, as well as nights at home will all be enjoyed and spent alone no matter what hurts.

Im really missing my grandma today, its been almost 1 year since her death and I have not been able to process it very well. I dont have a family or friends that live close to me. I think about her every day, but approaching the 1 year mark is taking a toll on my emotional health and well being. I just wish she was still here. :(

@Empath11 - That sounds very sad indeed. It can be very hard around anniversaries and I hope you will feel that you can give yourself the space to grieve and also be extra good to yourself during this difficult time. There is also a subforum for grieving here on 7 Cups. Have you found it yet? Maybe you can have a look around there if that feels like the right thing for you. We also have self-help guides and there is one specifically on Grief if you feel like having a look at it. Thinking of you.

@Empath11, I know how you feel. Its been 2 years since my grandma died. Even now, thinking about her and all the moments I missed with her brings tears to my eyes. She lived in a different state as me, so the last time I saw her was when we flew to her state for my grandfathers funeral 4 years ago. It may be hard now, but keep your head up, think of the good times and how shes in a better place, and youll do just fine. I promise, it will get better. Itll take some time, but it wont be like this forever.

@fairmindedOwl6264 I'm sorry to hear. I hope everything gets better for you smiley

@fairmindedOwl6264, I understand what youre going through, but you are not worthless. If he wants to leave you, thats his problem. Hes missing out on an amazing person. You dont need someone else to show you your worth. If he wants to leave you, for whatever reason, hes the jerk missing out. Its ok to fight, its a normal thing, but if you fight so often it drags you down and keeps you from living your life, its better to let him go. You dont need that negativity in your life, nobody does. If him not being around makes you feel worthless, thats a sign you should try and let go. I knew a guy that I thought I would be with forever, but one day, he was gone. I thought about him for another year before I could let go. Dont try and turn it off overnight, it doesnt work that way. Just, explore. Find other things to occupy your mind and have fun. Dont let his negativity keep you from enjoying your life. I wish you the best and I hope you find a way to work around this situation and live your life to the fullest.
