As someone who suffered from life-long depression, crippling social anxiety and extreme loneliness through his life, many times I find it really hard to relate and connect with other people. I feel as if all these years of isolation and emotional pain, in themselves, contributed further to my loneliness and depression.
I'm starting to doubt I'll ever have a deep connection with someone who truly understands me. As it seems, it's very unlikely for me to ever find someone that I can truly relate to, as most people didn't spend most of their lives feeling depressed, socially anxious and isolated themselves in their room. I've been through so much pain in this life, and it hurts even more realizing that I'll probably live alone with it for the rest of my life.
It gets to the point where even relationship with other people feel shallow, as if I'm not really a part of them. Because I'm trapped behind a thick glass in a different, cold and lonely world.
Making matters worse, I'm not a person who is comfortable being alone by any means. I'm craving for a deep connection with another person. Yet I can't do that, when I'm hurting so badly, and no one knows where my wounds are.
Is anyone here feeling the same way?
