Feeling lonely

I feel lonely right now. This feeling has got worse since developing schitzaphrenia. Anyone else feel the same?

Yeah, schizophrenia is generally a pretty lonely disease.

I thought I was doing something wrong in college when I had no one.

J.

I have my pets to keep me company so I’m not THAT lonely :smile:

I just met with a few friends after a pretty lonely time…
Hope they stay in touch

I isolate myself from other people because I have a hard time socializing since I got sick. I think it’s a mix of paranoia, not knowing what to say, and other cognitive stuff. I’m lonely all the time, but being around people makes me feel uncomfortable and ashamed of myself.

Sigh.

what type of cognitive stuff do you have Lolabean? And how long have you been sick?

Isnt there some jazz song about this?
How does it go? something like:

“been there alone so long,
he doesnt even know he’s lonely no more”

Probably not exactly those words.
I dont really care for socializing with strangers. Most of them would not be understanding of me.

Dont know what happened to who ever might have thought of my as a friend in my youth.
