How many alone like me?

just wondering how many of us sz/sza sufferers are alone like me? i live with family and have a good relationship with them. i however have no close friends around. i have one i talk to who also has sz but he lives down south. i have been in touch with my ex after ten years of no talking. but thats it. i dont work or have any friends in the area.

i feel it makes me vulnerable and i rarely think about it but its strange to most people to live this way. what do you think?

you can talk to me. i am happy to hear. i live alone. i can tell you this much: you have your parents, your brothers and sisters, and no one else. peoples cant be trusted. maybe you’re romantic and you would like to have a woman. women are sweet. using internet services you can find someone compatible but you will always be alone. we live and die alone. you can however find satisfaction with yourself. i used to think like you. i am a good friend of mine. i am all i got so i treat me well. life is fast. everything changes. nothing is ethernal. all i said is about me thou. it is my perspective. you dont have to buy any of it. if you are a romantic then find a woman and be romantic to her all your life, women love being appreciated, and if you treat them right they stick around.

I live alone but I like it
I have no local friends just two separate friends who live far away from me
I have family too brother and sister live down south
Just me and dad live near each other. Sadly my mum is in a home at moment

I live by myself with my dog in a apartment someone I know owns and I get cheaper rent and when she finds out I never want to meet her my family again I’m afraid she will kick me out.
Hope she lets me live here unconditionally.

I have my former stepmother who calls me a few times a week and I treasure her phone calls.
I don’t go well with my family really.
It’s complicated and difficult.
Some of them sometimes can be loving good moments.

I’m afraid my former stepmother will break contact with me.
Hope she will love me unconditionally even though I want nothing to do with her family really.including mine such as nephew sister etc

All my friends are x boyfriends.
I have three.
We don’t hang out and we don’t have contact weekly .

I have a woman who says she is my best friend but we have no contact in person just in spirit or telepathicly or something.
She said she loves me regardless of who I vote for or what my believes are and that our love is so deep.

I have a boyfriend I see weekends.

Have my fur babies.

That’s it.

I believe I have relationships in love in spirit that are positive and can have humour and greatness.

I have haters and avoid them.
Do t want to be controlled suppressed dominated etc .

I do feel lonely at times.

I am a minority in my moral beliefs.

I can feel like all sides of government are against me personally but hey my loved ones have stands too.

I’m not a socialite I’m a homebody but sometimes I can socialise in spirit but not in person but not everyone deserves to feel my spirit specially not those bad to me.

No friends.
Just people that want to use me.
And in return I use them for socializing sometimes.
I just have my family and girlfriend.
I live alone.

I live alone. I found that all nighters with akathesia are hell. I cannot occupy myself and feed totally restless, cut off and lonely. I took my ap this morning because the akathesia wears off mostly after six hours. I have a semi friend I call every few months. We have a lot in common. I saw the people at the grocery store today and building management. I texted my siblings and called my mom. I also call my aunt and write real letters to my cousin. I hope to meet some people in the near future. It’s been almost unbearable for ten years and I’ve gotten used to it degree by degree by degree.

I’ve been alone since 2017 since my mom died. My psych clinic does rehab I go to so I’m around other people then. I was lonely today because I stayed at home waiting for an important call.

I too, have no close friends around. Although I have many family members of whom I talk to. I also talk with my co-workers but usually at times when I am at the office.

I spend most of my time alone. But I make plenty of phone calls. Sometimes I meet up with family or friends. I rarely feel lonely. I’ve gotten good at being alone.

I go weeks only talking to hubby and speaking to family on the phone.
I don’t go anywhere to meet or make friends i avoid everything because of illness. My hubby has his friends he sees but i don’t have any. Even years ago when i wasn’t aware of the extent of my own illness and went to work i never made any friends. I have only made friends in the past that ive met in shared accommodation or from psych ward or supported living. I dont have any now. I just have hubby and family. Family are busy with religious commitments very into the whole religious community. Ive not been like that since being a child. I left all that behind and tried to make a life for myself. I’m alone most of the time. Hubby watches tv at night in the other room i prefer quiet. Its mental illness that is to blame

I feel alone.

Today I said I don’t want to live.

I would never commit suicide but if I was terminally Ill I would get assisted dying where they put you to sleep so you are not in pain.

Everyday I say I just want to sleep.I don’t want to be awake.
Some days I say I don’t want to live but really I do want to live.

There are people around me with heaps of friends who dominate n supress n exclude n disrespect me with all their friends knowing I am alone.
All of them against me.

They said I shouldn’t go to the gym because they work and go to the gym and play soccer and are all socialites and all I did was go to gym.
Now I can’t go to gym.
Both gyms.
Is there a gym somewhere in the world where i could exercise in peace comfortably?

I miss living with my x in sa but We had opposite political and moral views.
It’s only place I ever felt at home and it’s happiest I’ve been.

I have no one to call I feel now.
My boyfriend never Anders his phone.

You should look up Thich Nhat Hanh. His writings make me appreciate the more beautiful parts of life. Might make you appreciate all the little things around you. Anyway, I am pretty alone, too, like everyone else here. I have a couple friends i dance with once a week but they really don’t seem to know me that well. I have very few people I deeply connect with. Deep connection comes from being rooted in the same reality and because I don’t know where people are it makes it hard to connect.
