I’m so tired of investing my time into the wrong people.😔

Anyone else ever want to go out somewhere but don't have the money or the car to go there? Sick of my partner, his sister and her partner NEVER answering their messages when I'm in pain and asking them to help with something, but then can't get away from them for a couple of hours because I have no way to get anywhe...

Is anyone else finding maternity leave really lonely 😩. I have had alot of family come over weekly to see me and baby (he's 6 weeks now) but not really had many friends come over, some days I literally just sit at home me and my little one and think gosh this is lonely haha. I take him out on walks on my own and…

I’m pretty sure I’m going through PPD, it doesn’t seem to get better no matter what I do and it’s a lot I feel like I’m losing my mind, I have no one to talk to about this what can I do to go back to feeling like myself? I feel like I don’t even want to be here 😕 My husband and I are currently going through a…

Anyone else just a ticking time bomb? I swear to god i get so irritated right now with just about anything

I’ve just been feeling so lonely lately. I’m a single mom to a 10month old and she’s been so fussy these last few days. I can’t help but wish I had a partner to help me to take the load off of me a little bit. Even seeing other couples makes me feel so lonely. Anyone else feeling this way?

Feeling lonely while being 30 weeks pregnant is honestly another type of beast. Having a lot of family issues with my older sister who hasn’t been there for me this whole pregnancy as I was there for the both of hers. I don’t have any girlfriends, I give too much and people take advantage leaving me in the dust. My ...

My little girl is 2 next month and I feel like she has no friends! She has friends at nursery but I don't know their mum's so can't invite them to her birthday as that's weird? We don't have any play dates because we don't know anyone. I don't have a car so I don't take her to any playgroups and I feel like I've le...

A group of my most treasured friends don’t have children, by choice. They’re wonderful with my daughter but one of them confided in me that they’re not sure “they’re ready to have a child in their lives” (meaning my kid), and maybe our “lifestyles aren’t compatible”. Our friendship began when our daughter was a ba...

Hey guys , my baby boy is now 8 months and I can't shake the feeling of being so lonley. My partner is at work till the evening and it's really just me and him Mostly, none of my friends have babies or if they do the kids are in there teens.. I take walks and I do little shops and stuff to keep active but this lonl...

I’m 33 weeks pregnant and have never felt more lonely in my entire life, honestly the only person I have is my unborn baby. I must say I find pregnancy to be so lonely and isolating and you see people’s true character when you need them the most and you realise you are well and truly on your own with this. This i...

I don’t think I’ve ever been truly loved. It seems like all my relationships I always have loved the other person more. I’m always the one to fight for a relationship and always the last person to move on after it ends. I’m a people pleaser and always go above and beyond but no one has ever done the same for me. Why...

No one ever warned me that pregnancy could be this isolating. Before I became pregnant my significant other’s family would constantly reach out to talk now that I am they never do. My one and only friend has begun lying to me about being sick constantly so we haven’t seen each other or really talked much in months. ...

I’ve always heard people say pregnancy is a lonely period, but I’m currently 14 weeks postpartum and have never felt more neglected. It’s so weird, all my family and friends who were so supportive at first seem to have disappeared and only contact me every now and then to ask for pictures of the baby. I feel like I ...

Anyone else feel like they’re lost in work/parent life that they don’t have much of a social life?! 😂 Anyone up for occasional girls nights out? 💃🏼🥂

What do you do when feeling low? (If you do) Today had been one of those days and I feel super lonely and sad… I tried yoga and played some music while cooking but doesn’t seem to help much.

Is there any people out there that feels this same way?? I’ve been so caught up in motherhood I forgot how to interact with adult humans, my long time friend recently reached out and we haven’t spoken in over a year and she had so much going on all movies she’s into books she’s reading, places she’s going drinks sh...

Help ! I’m feeling resentful that I married and had a child with someone who had a daughter . I regret it almost every single day . I hate the dynamics of a blended home . No I’m not saying I hate my step daughter . I’m saying I hate the challenges that come along with it . I thought initially that being involved wi...

I’m new to the area where I currently live and I have been to a couple of baby groups and hope to meet some other mom friends, but I haven’t met anyone I can connect with, and somehow always feel like the odd one in a group setting, I feel quite lonely , anyone else?

Sometimes I feel like maternity leave isn’t what I pictured. I used to dream of being at home with a baby all day but the reality is quite different. I feel awful for saying this because I love my baby so much, but she can be quite hard work at times, she moans and cries a lot and is hard to entertain. My husband wo...
