Loneliness

I feel exactly the same😢

@Julia I am sorry you feel this way too.

I'm exactly the same seems impossible to make friends as an adult I worry my social anxiety has made it so Its always going to be like this

I can really relate to you! I feel the exact same way right now. I’m trying my hardest to change it but it feels impossible and like nobody understands sometimes. My son is such a happy and loving boy, he loves to interact with everyone and I feel so guilty that I struggle so much to take him out and go to places on my own. Motherhood can be so very lonely x

Message me! X

Same here, its like I've literally forgotten how to have a conversation anymore

I feel the same 😢 pushing myself to see a professional. You’re not alone 🫶🏽

I'm a very shy person and I feel I have social anxiety I literally get terrified to talk to someone, what to say etc. I dont mind to take my son places but I feel bad that I don't really talk to mums at school well enough to get their numbers for play dates . I only have about 2 or 3. I felt lonely since having my second baby who is 5 months now

This is exactly how I feel and think

Your not alone. I find my self in the same situation. I cant even keep a conversation going.

Use the pods!

Totally get you hun x

You are not alone!! Gosh it’s insane how so many of us feel the exact same way. Start with 1 but find 2-3 really good friends and that’s all you really need. Counseling has helped me a lot, leaning on my husband for help in this has also helped me a lot. I still struggle with this, but I no longer need the anti anxiety meds to help me cope with it.

This post expresses me so much that I could have written it myself (only for face to face friends though. I have long distance true friendships).

I had to give a second look to be sure I wasn't the one writing this 😢 And it's crazy the number of people that already answered that feel the same way. I may not be as much of a rare breed as I thought. Feel free to message me!

I'm right there with you. I have such a small friend group, like two. Both of them leave me on read all the time even after telling them I needed someone to talk to. But it's sooo hard to actually get new friends. And my anxiety stops me from trying too

You’re not alone dear

Have you tried talking in the pods?

No, I have not. Do you find them to be helpful?

Thank you.

@Krista I am sorry to hear your friends leave you on read. You deserve support. I hope your anxiety improves .

I find the pods here very helpful. Join my group Alea's Friends if you like the bio. I announce my pods there.

My name is Alea. I changed my name , and forgot it couldn't be changed back for 30 days.

I feel totally the same, I try and get out but I'm so socially awkward and it's really uncomfortable. Just know you're not alone and you can message me if you want to chat ❤️

Hey you are not alone, I feel like I am just like this. And life has just made it even harder to find connection. I see everyone with friends and connections actually experiencing those outside of an app and my heart just breaks further. Like what is wrong with me? If you'd like someone to talk to I'd always like a friend. I love books and art and gaming and well any introverted hobbies really. If that's your vibe and vibe and even if it's not I'm here.

I feel this. You are not alone.

Message me :) xxx

It's comforting and saddening to know so many of us feel this way. I appreciate everyone's responses and insight.
