I feel so alone even though i know that i'm not

[Tacos]

Hi there,

I have this problem where i have the most amazing friends and the most wonderful best friend i could ever hope to have, but i have never felt so alone and exhausted before. I know that i have these people around me but i still can't help but just feel outside the box and alone in the shadows. I'm in my VCE at the moment and exams start in about a week and i need help or advice, i havent been diagnosed with any sort of illness, just in case you were curious about that.

I appreciate you reading and helping.

Welcome to the forum. Tacos, This is a supportive and caring place.

I sometimes have the felt the Lon.iest when I am surrounded by people.

Is there a counsellor at school or a trusted teacher you trust to talk to. Have you spoken to your doctor? I think if you can talk to someone it may help you work out your feelings.

Sometimes when you are stressed with exams you can feel very alone.

Yo can talk to beyond blue service, Support Advice Action 1300 22 46 36.

Feel free to post as much as you like. People here can relate to you and you are not alone.

Hi Tacos and welcome to BB

I too can relate to feeling lonely even around people and it can be rather unsettling. I second Quirkys suggestions of talking to someone for some more support too.

Im wondering though has something happned recently that has brought up these feelings? Is something happening at home like a breakup/divorce for example or do you think maybe its the stress your under for the VCE?

Has this been happening for a while or just more recently?

Im interested to know your thoughts and what mightve triggerred these feelings?

Feel free to keep posting and talking to us here to, we will try our best to help you as well 🙂

Hi Tacos - is the exam stress getting to you? That can make someone feel isolated. Or is it longer term? I'm glad you have good friends, but it sounds like you are feeling isolated and not yourself.

That's good advice from Quirky above - it would be good to have a talk with someone. Headspace (counselling centres) may be another good option. You don't have to have an illness to talk to someone there - it's for anyone 12-25 with any sort of issue ranging from study problems to contraception queries. Post here anytime you like, you are sure to find understanding people here.

Hey Tacos! Like the name, by the way.

I know exactly what you mean, I started off at my high school alone, I knew nobody, and two terms in I have made 4 amazing friends outside of my class, but I always feel alone, in class especially, perhaps open up to your friends, parents/guardians or a favorite teacher, I'm not very good at helping but I hope you get what I mean. I opened up to my friends about how I feel lonely and they made me feel so much better.

I wish the best for your future endeavors

Hi tacos.

I know how you feel I have good friends and a amazing bestfriend but they don't make me feel like I fit in I feel left out and alone.

They go out shopping and to the movies together but I'm not invited or anything and my mum wonders why I'm always in my room crying or just never leaving my room I know how you feel. ❤️
