I'm new here and not sure what I want to say or how to say it. But I will definitely say that I feel very alone. I've been carrying a secret that makes me feel like an outsider in a world I used to feel more comfortable in. It's possibly led to some alienation and it's also kept me distant from people who only want to be my friend.
I've gone through a lot of things in my life but the loneliness I feel right now is excruciating. I'm crying now just writing those words, because I can't really say them, because to say them would be to reveal what I'm trying to bury inside of me.
I don't know if this makes sense, but I'm curious about who else feels lonely and if there's anything you've done to help make things easier on yourself?
For me, I have an active life on the internet. I go to people who don't really know me, and I form friendships that are pretty superficial for the most part. It helps. I can stay away from the serious stuff, and still possibly make a connection.
I don't know. I want to tell people what's inside of me, but I'm at a loss to really express it properly.
BTW: I realize that I'm asking for advice here, and this is the wrong thread. I guess I just want a little compassion, and to know I'm not alone. Thank you.
