Hey peeps, I'm new. I dunno what I'm doing here. I guess I just want someone to talk to.

[Redblue05]

Anyone feel like they have had so many best friends in the past years but you are no one's best friend? You value and love people so much and you are always the outsider. I just want a connection. Someone who knows everything about me, and loves me unconditionally. But at the same time people are so much effort and I just want to be alone and watch the stars and listen to sad music. Please help me, I'm so lonely. I think I'm fading, each day gets worse and worse until I can't function. Sorry

Hi Redblue05,

Thankyou for you joining us on the forums, we hope that you can enjoy this warm and welcoming community. We are sorry to hear that you are not feeling well right now and that you are lonely at the moment. There is nothing to be sorry about, we are really glad that you have had the courage to share how you are feeling. We know that it can be really tough, especially with all that is going on right now, when we feel like we aren't connecting with others. Feeling like you are on the outside is really tough, but also really common. What is wonderful is that you have shown the strength to say you are feeling low, that is a great step on the journey to feeling better. 

We think that it could be a great idea to talk to our friends at Kids Helpling on 1800 55 1800 or by trying out their webchat. They are experts at helpling people who feel they way you do right now and can be incredibly helpful. 

You can also call us on 1300 22 4636 and one of our team will help you process these feelings and help you search for other supports.

Thank you again for sharing your experiences with us, it can be really tough to take that first step but now that you have we hope that you can see how brave you have been. Please feel free to update us on how you are feeling if you are comfortable.

Kind regards, 
Sophie M

Thanks Sophie. I have contacted Kids Helpline in the past, when stuff really went off the rails and it helped a bit. I might try it again but I really want to give these forums a try, they seem cool.
