found that 46 percent of Americans report feeling lonely sometimes or always, and 47 percent report feeling left out sometimes or always. A little less, 43 percent, report feeling isolated from others, and the same number report feeling they lack companionship and their relationships lack meaning.

I have a medium size family. I constantly feel alone. I have to spend time with them. It’s not my choice so it’s like a prison. When I finally get some time to be on my own, which is rare, I’m so tired from everyone that I have to be around that I just want to sleep. When I wake up, I feel like going out but by that time the free time is over and I’m back in the same situation I was in but wanting even more to be out of it… :exploding_head:

Why don’t you like spending time with your family?

This is a very loaded question with a ton of past. Honestly, I often just feel like I shouldn’t I have an arguably good life on the face of it but I will try and answer your question without boring you to tears :sob: .
Individually, my spouse constantly doesn’t listen, interrupting, correcting my opinions and ignoring anything else I care to mention that has any weight in the relationship. The kids are very loud, increasing my hallucinations (often to the point of their screaming causes echoed screams in my head driving me to scream myself [which at that point silences everything making it both the high and low of my day]). They also prefer my spouse to me, even though they spend the majority of the time with me. Honestly, it’s probably why they have the preference, I would… Whenever we all try to get the family to one thing, it’s chaos (not unlike the reality that I have apart from them [hallucinations]). It often crumbles and I’m blamed for it because it’s usually me that points out the issues and leaves because at that point I’m really struggling to keep it together.

Hopefully this helps but I’m guessing you will probably just agree that it’s me. Most people in my life do anyway. :sweat:
