hello I enjoyed your post.  Welcome.  Hope you find comfort here.

I am really sorry you are undergoing so much pain and suffering. From my own experience of having been put down, ignored and repeatedly hurt by others, I can say that your release really lies in accepting that he is not going to change.  DO not expect him to change.  Tell yourself a hundred...

Hello and welcome.  I am new to this forum as well but you are in the right place. Sorry that you feel so very alone.  Lots of great comments you have received so far.  You are in the midst of friends here so you will no longer be alone.  You can reach out any time you want to however many of...

I agree with you.  Self absorption is the price you sometimes have to pay when you live alone.  But it is also within one's own power to cut through this damaging habit.  And in the end, that is all it is...a habit.  And it can be broken. Like any habit, it (self absorption or self importance)...

Thank you for your replies. Gives me a couple of things to think about.

Suppose at the moment of your death, someone or something in which you had complete trust and faith (God, Spirit, the Universe...) came and told you that nothing, absolutely nothing you had done or said or been in your life was wrong.  That you are and were always perfect and good and that you...

No need to give up the '*****' in you.  It is a release and we do need this in our lives.  Only watch that you don't turn this bitchiness on yourself.  I do love hugs too.  Thanks many times over.

Well, MissBehave, I send you a hug.  For me, this works much better than anything else.  Siku, here is one for you too. :)

MissBehave I wish you all luck with the medication problem you are undergoing now. If this helps you at all, I find you to be a balanced and healthy minded person (judging for our, yes, very limited interaction). But  sometimes you can tell about a person very soon.  You are balanced.  Its...

I think it is almost impossible to find anybody who understands us.  The best we can hope for is a little bit of their time and a few hopefully encouraging happy words from them.  Too often I have found that  people appear to be close to you but are usually after something else from you.  I...

Much of what you have said is true.  I had an authoritarian father who simply did not like me.  Don't really know why and although I spent years and years trying to figure out why (asking my mother why and so on) I never did figure it out.  Yes, I did hate him a lot.  But I also respected and...

Hi MissBehave Thanks for the good wishes.  Its very nice to get acknowledgement for the words we write.  Its sometimes so very difficult to put into words the loneliness we feel that when we do get 'noticed' for it, it is heart warming.  Really! So how are you and what motivated you too look...

Hi Jilldowney I am a new member as well. Just posted my first message. Feeling down is something I know a lot about. For me, it always feels like something is wrong...that I am wrong. Rationally, I don't think I am a bad person. I know I have done some good in this world. But this...

Hello Everyone I am a new member and this is my first post.  I live in India, am 56 years old and live alone.   Have been alone now for 8 years.  First few years were ok but after that (perhaps due to some health issues) i noticed myself becoming so extremely introspective that I seemed to...
