Re: How is everyone feeling? (31)

Re: Feeling Really Lonely
Thank you Nanuq :) Sorry to hear you are in a similar boat, and it gets to you too. You're so right about a life being made up of blocks, and of some of the blocks being missing. For a long while now...

Re: Feeling Really Lonely
Thanks biscuits :)
I was thinking about classes. I just don't seem to be interested in anything these days, which is another problem. I've looked up on Meetup but nothing grabs me so far, but I...

Re: Feeling Really Lonely
Just to add to it, I've felt lonely pretty much all my life, but it seems to be really cutting in now. In my younger years I'd distract myself with videogames or TV, but I can't even concentrate on...

Re: What are you looking forward to?
I'm looking forward to finally getting my own place. I'm in my early 40s and apart from a brief spell flat-sharing in my late 20s, I've lived at home my whole life. It didn't actually bother me for...

Re: Do you have any little pick me ups?
