I feel lonely
Tomorrow is my birthday but I’m really sad and I feel like I have never belong anywhere, I’m about to turn 17 but I’m so scared I wish I never existed, why do I have to be so complicated, never had a good friend and never had any sort of relationship or anything thin romantic, I feel like I have been losing my life Im supposed to have fun but I’m here being pathetic and depressed, I have a good life but never has any deep connection where I can be honest and not feel judge, I just want to be happy I’m so done with everything.

Hello Valeria, nice to meet you! 💛
It's completely understandable to feel overwhelmed and sad when it seems like you’re lacking those deep connections you crave.
Turning 17 is a significant milestone, and it’s tough to carry the weight of feeling like you don’t belong anywhere. It's a very lonely feeling, I get that. (':
You’re not alone in feeling complicated though, many people your age (and literally at every age) go through a rollercoaster of emotions and confusion, there's just a ton of things to make sense of in life and to do in life, that we often kinda forget about actually just living life.
It's okay to feel lost, and it doesn't make you pathetic, your feelings are valid and I have a feeling, they are quite shared too, by many people.
You are longing for real connections and genuine relationships, and that’s a healthy desire, I feel. Us hoomans are social beings and do thrive on connections and emotions.
You mentioned wanting to be happy, and I believe that’s possible for you, it's easier said than done I know hehe, but but, where there's will there's way and you wanting to feel happy, find the joys in life and living are proof enough that you are somewhere hopeful of things changing for better and I sure pray it does.
Even when it feels like life is heavy, there’s a chance for joy and deeper connections ahead. We can never be too sure of things going great but we can never be too sure that it wouldn't get a little better at least, yes? :D
It’s okay to take your time; finding those valuable friendships can sometimes take a little while. Remember, you are deserving of love, support, connection and understanding, just as you are.
I truly hope that brighter days are ahead, even if they seem distant right now. That's my wish for you actually~ that you get to experience the good in life too, hopefully the many days in store for you are all filled with lots of awesome people and love and kindness and warmth and everything your heart desires for yourself. Happiest Birthdayyyyy!💛
Hi there, a very happy birthday and I'm so sorry you feel this way. I wish I could say it'll get better or some other generic sh*t, but you know what, it changes. You're a sensitive person and not everybody understands that. Especially at your age. But hey, life never ever remains the same. You will eventually find your people. Until then, recognise what an awesome individual you are. Love yourself. Learn to love your own company. Companionship will come to you once you get comfortable in your skin. I myself am still struggling with this. We're gonna make it though. And we're gonna be happy.
First happy birthday. Have you ever tried martial arts? I am being serious not just any one find somewhere that give you deep roots into its origins. Get into it train hard whe you see what you are capable of after a year of training you will see you are compatible every where in any situation.... Good luck

Do you want to talk to me about it? Also happy birthday and you shouldn't feel like this espically before your birthday! You matter to everyone even to us 7 cups listeners!
Hi my friend!!!
First of all happy birthdayð¥³ð¥° No matter I wish you know that the world gets better because of you and your family must be proud and grateful of having you with themâ¤ï¸I know used to be extremely depressed and seemed to lose desire for everything (I wished I had never existed too) But that was also a great period of self exploration that I started drawing and writing poetry which I had never thought of before. Depression and sadness are all beautiful paths of human emotions and perhaps that's a sign of you being more mature and having more special experiences than others.
Of course, I feel sorry for your experience because everybody wants connections and live a happy life but sometimes life cheats and the only thing we can do is exploit treasures and perhaps hidden gifts in in a lot of moments save me and make me feel life life is not as bad as I thought, and perhaps it isn't?â¤ï¸I assume people who's a little depressed has superior artistic skills than others and perhaps you should try painting and writing where you can spiritually rely on and gain support from, perhaps you do have potentialâ£ï¸
I truly understand what you're going through right now because believe me I'm also 17 and what you are saying was literally me before...So I'm saying these because it happens to me, at least, and so will it happen to you because you deserve all the bestð¥°
Happy birthday again and feel free to text me!!! it would be wonderful if we could become friends!!!
Don’t give up things will get better you can show an interest in others and they will return the favor I used to have no friends too but I had to learn to be a friend to get a friend now I have a few good close friends and it’s enough you can get there too
Thank you so much for taking the time and caring about my situation, i feel better knowing that I’m not entirely alone at least in this space! Thank you again and don’t worry I’m alright I think I can manage it!
You’re very welcome I felt exactly like you when I was younger thanks so much for thanking me you’re so kind for thanking me thank you so much for thanking me I admire you for being strong I’m glad you’re alright and feel better
