I feel very alone

Eden1919Senior Contributor14 Apr 2021, 4:07 pm AEST

I feel very alone

I feel very alone at the moment, I probably shouldnt I have a family I am close too and some good friends but none of them are people I can talk to about what is going on with me at the moment. I cant tell them how sacred and tired I am and how much I am struggling just to do everyday tasks or how the devil keeps sending me messages or what the other voices say to me or how even going to bed is a struggle. I cant tell them about how scared I am of what is going to happen or how I just want to scream all the time. I tried telling one friend but they just kept saying what everyone else has said to me "take the meds you are mentally ill" I just want someone who understands someone who believes me so who gets that this isnt just in my head. I know they cant see it the way i do but how am I meant to be able to trust anyone if things just get dismissed. no one really wants to deal with me and my experiences. there is so much i am tired of carrying on my back all alone.

Re: I feel very alone

@Snowie Thanks.

I feel really weird and bad today I have tried to call a helpline 3 times but they are too busy and my case manager isn’t working today. People always say reach out there is help out there but there isn’t no one has time for me and that help that is supposedly out there doesn’t exist.

Hi @Eden1919

I am sorry to hear that you have not been able to get through. If they are busy with other calls, please keep trying or leave a voice message when you are given the option.

Tough days are so difficult and seems to go on for longer than they should. Thinking of you.

Sometimes it is hard to get through. Am around for awhile if you need some company.

@Eden1919

When I read, your message I thought you were seeking someone to communicate with and I felt hopeful because I have always sought a friend. Do you have any questions I could help you with? I've found I am an outsider in society, can't form friends, and others regularly criticise or exclude me. So I made friends with the natural environment. It's easier to understand and more comforting than other humans.

Re: I feel very alone

Hi @Eden1919 . I can't say I really like animals; perhaps you might be able to help me understand why many people enjoy them? I prefer land formations and rocks because they are less changeable and don't move. I can study them to understand how they formed and what their features are. Animals are constantly moving and in my expearence either run away when I approach or irritate me; I find them harder to understand.
