Not only am I horribly lonely but I also have an intense existential depression. Life feels empty and meaningless to me. The conditions of my life are not good and I have no one in my life who is close to me. This make me very sad.
This is a very humiliating thing to share with 'friends' that you hardly ever see--especially when they have a partner, family or close friends that they see on a regular basis. And everyone today is so busy. We don't have time for each other anymore.
Plus I lost my job and have almost no human contact! I feel like I am living in a loveless prison of solitary confinement.
If you were to see me out and about, you'd never guess that I live this intensely painful life..
I get frustrated with people who give trite answers: keep your chin up, Be positive, stay busy. These people are likely to have never spent a holiday alone nor have they felt the deeply intense pain of loneliness. It is a burden that people carry to varying degrees and for some of us, it is a living hell. There is so much pain and misery in the world all the time... I'm convinced you have to be in deep denial, well-distracted or in la-la land to be happy here.
I guess it is therapeudic to write this out to no one in particular. I feel very much for all the people who posted on this lonely forum. Makes me even more sad...
