I just need to vent

I am so tired of feeling lonely but not wanting to be around people. I can’t seem to win with my brain. I crave solitude all the time but then I cry because I have no one to hug. When I’m around people I just feel reminded of how different I am, how little I have in life, what I will never have, etc. it’s exhausting being constantly upset just because people have it better than I do and I just want some minor relief. I’m only 31 and I have so much trauma and health problems and money problems. I have been feeling so hopeless most of the time. Frantically trying to change my life in some meaningful way but I keep running into dead ends. I hate being stuck. I can’t keep going on

Are there any group meetups at your local mental health centre?

As I read this forum it is clear what you feel is not uncommon. The larger portion of members here feel bogged down in medical issues, alone and without friends or romance, have little income and are about your age with life traumas. Because it is common, it is not brought to the table as it should be. You can change your life to make it better. Some people say it starts in your thoughts. I say it starts with your feet. Get up and physically move yourself forward. Exercise is good for your body and your mind. Keep in your pocket a small writing pad and pen. My best ideas pop up when I’m running. When I get to my house the brilliant plan has vanished. Write it down when it’s fresh. Addressing each problem right now is only going to pull you with the weight of them. Walk and see what your own mind can reveal. 31 is a good age to make changes that matter. Move forward and do not reside yourself suffering. It is easy to do and often the wide path. Our lives are never fair. If you think life is easy, you are doing something very wrong. Move your body and your mind will follow.

What do you feel life seems to be lacking?

Meaning and love honestly. I just don’t have any friends or family
