sad and lonely

Philippines
June 1, 2011 7:12pm CST
It's already June, and i have noticed that as this month started I always felt sad and alone not because my birthday is so soon and another number added to my age... I felt so sad, alone and empty. I have always longing this comfort but i don't know how well i get it. I'm not use of running to a friend and cry and all and ask to comfort me and share my problems. i normally be at the corner in silence and not to associate with anyone. I normally cry in a corner that no one even notice i was crying. I don't share my problems with anyone coz I had this experienced that i tried to share and for them to understand also but i was being judge and more misunderstood and that hurt me so much. And it leaves some scars on it. What do you think shall i do?

The best thing you should do is to rejoice. All you need to overcome your loneliness is by spending quality time with someone. You can move out for a vacation where you may find someone to spend some of your time. even if you do not find someone to love or to be in relationship with, then just flirt a while it will give you pleasure and you will start living in a good mood out of a mundane lonely life. all the best!

we all confront emotional issues at some sort of life. I am sure you will find someone to share your emotions with soon. remember "life is a journey, your sole aim is to make it memorable" --Pankaj Garg

You could share your thoughts and maybe ask for opinions here. Just be openminded because different people here have different ways of looking at things. But, the mere fact the you are venting out is a relief enough. Sometimes it's good to tell your problems anonymously to strangers. As to trusting you offline friends, maybe you should take a good look at the person you're unloading to before you tell him/her your problem. You could always pray. Sometimes, there are things I can never tell anyone. I pray about it and release it otherwise it would make so much noise in my mind that it won't make me sleep at night. I understand what you're going through, as I've noticed that when my birthday comes near, I go into a depressed stage. But, if I can help it, I try to fight it. And I do. By the time the birthday comes, all is left is a thankful heart for another to live, learn, love... So, I sincerely greet you a happy birthday to come!

Mylotting can also be a good way for your to vent out your feelings if you're not really comfortable talking to someone personally or to a friend. However I have to agree with our fellow friends who commented on your post that you should also have an open mind when someone would try to give you an advise or say out their opinions about your situation. Sometimes it really helps to reflect as well and try to analyze why you feel this way. I'm not a psychiatrist or anything but I've also been there and for me it really helps when I pour my depression out to someone or to something which is thru mylot I hope you'd feel better. One of the things that could probably help you is to count your blessings :)

first of all, happy birthday and cheer up! my birthday too this month, lol! i think [rather guess] you're having depression, and don't let it bring you down. although the harsh realities sometimes could be so mean especially if involve people around us, you have to attempt to gain strength and keep your composure to move on [better said than done, lol! but we can do it] otherwise you won't be able to realize the best thing in this world, the gift of life! so don't bother yourself with what others think, just be yourself, and most of all ask for HIS guidance [The ONE up above!]. cheer up and happy birthday to us!

Well, you don't have to be lonely and sad anymore. If you don't like to share them to a real friend, you can share your problem with us here at Mylot. Don't be ashamed because we don't know you personally, after all. We could give you advises and we could even make you laugh. Just keep on posting here and before you know it, you will be as happy as we are here at Mylot, specially when you have earned your first cash out.

It's actually normal for us to be anxious when our birthday is coming up, most especially if the age is something to be worried about. I got that too when my birthday was fast approaching. However, you should just breathe. Relax. It won't be that bad. If you keep on thinking about the negativities of life, nobody would want to sit near you. It doesn't matter if you don't know how to show your weakness to anyone, you don't need to. Perhaps you're the type of person who can cry all by herself and go out positively after. Just find your self and don't think too negatively. Forget about the scars and the past, this is your life. You don't want to live it alone and negative all your life, don't you? Just keep your chin up and don't think about anything first. Just one at a time.

bad birthday and new year. - Better not celebrate things that can cause your to depress.
Ya, life sucks especiallly when it comes to my birthday and new year celebration i start to ponder what i wasted wat i missed and what i was cheated and start to blame myself for wrong decision and stupidity and such.I start a depression mood and such and may cause me to stupid stuffs which will cause health issues and also money lost again and the circle continues.

if you don't want to run to a friend then why just talk to yourself. i mean yourself is somebody too then why not talk like "*sigh, you've been so lonely these days and it affects us both blablablabla..." you're the only one who can help yourself without an aid of anybody else.
