Hey Mike!
I get that overwhelming sadness sometimes when I think about the fact that I actually don't really have anyone to talk to.. apart from my 4 year old child that probably thinks I'm absolutely bonkers!
I guess that's why I came on this site.. to let a bit of it out and talk about it a bit.
Do you have any other friends or family around you? How far away is your sister? Planning a weekend to go and visit her could do you the world of good 🙂
If you still speak with your mum, are you guys close enough to talk to her about these kinds of things?
I'm starting to see a councillor next week just to talk about stuff and I guess get everything off my chest that's been there for years. That could be an idea, just to talk to someone..
Good luck and I hope some of that made sense!

Hey Mike!
Similar to you I have either moved away from my friends and family or they from me. My Parents split when I was younger and I now look at it in this way: If my parents didn't split, they wouldn't be able to be as happy as they are today. As for my friends, I moved for school and lost contact (somewhat) with them and we are not close. I found that in my moving, different interests create new friends, and while they are not the same, you can work to achieve similar ground. Also a councilor is a great point of contact in the meantime until you feel you are able to feel close to people again. The councilor is a person who you can vent to, without fall back and negativity, who is a point of reference that will not spread your private conversations and hopefully you will walk out feeling slightly better.
Hope this helps 🙂
Good Luck
