You have to learn to interact with people, it'll make you feel better.

@otaku_ Don't you have colleagues from work? Old school friends? Relatives? Don't wait until they find you. You can make the first step and suggest having a coffee together or whatever Indians drink when they meet.

We are here ..I am sorry you are feeling lost and down. Please come here always to chat. Is there anyone at all there for you? I do not have any friends, but I do have my son here at least. What do you normally do to talk to anyone?

@otaku_ I wish you the very best to find jobs. I like anime too, and my son loves it.

I understand your situation. Try to occupy yourself by doing something in house. Exercise daily, watch some stuff online. You can spend time here too by writing and reading posts. Take care

It is sad to see you and so many in this predicament - I found an article you may find helpful. Here is the link: There are many supplementary articles on this site that deal with how to cope with the loneliness. You can even take a course!

@otaku_ I'm glad it is a help - keep reading - there are some wonderful articles - I hope they bring you peace. Just a side point, that website has over 1000 languages - a lot of people speak English well, but they also speak other languages that are even more comfortable.

I think you should not over think. Just do something no matter how little it maybe and maybe one month later you will see your progress. Don't be alone, get in touch with friends. They can help

we have the same situation sometimes " when I run out of money". and to avoid stress I will go sleep if I feel alone, and when I woke up I feel good.

Have you tried painting pictures? I love painting. Watch some video tutorials on YouTube from Frank Clarke. He can teach anyone to paint.

I live with my Mum and step-dad and I feel lonely because I don't get on with them most of the time when my Mum snores like a walrus and my Step-dad moans all the time. It's very irritating and I wish I had a husband so I can get away.

I feel you brother. I also sit here alone and think about what am I going to do, because of this pandemic. I was jobless last year. the whole year. It was terrifying and lonely.
