Everything around me makes me feel insecure

Let me just say, people are going to hate; they will tear you down, grind you into the ground, and just be plain spiteful. It's how some people are, unfortunately. They seem to hate the most, when you are true to yourself, because it forces them to realize, maybe, just maybe, there is more to life than what they're told. A lot of people aren't too keen on their automated routines, more or less, being shattered. If people are giving you a hard time, for being you, try not to give it too much thought -- just know, you're doing something right. You're being bold and courageous, while they are being feeble and subjugated; you find strength in individuality, they find strength in numbers.

Loneliness can do terrible, terrible things to us. Our self-esteem, our thought process, even our emotional state. But it also provides us with a -- though not easy to do -- opportunity, to experience isolation, to get to know it, and to be humbled, so that, when we do find other kindred spirits, we will be less likely to take them for granted. At least, that is what I told myself, and have come to believe. It truly helped me out of one of the darker periods, of my life.

All of this is, of course, easier said than done. And, I know, you feel like you're all alone, where you are. No matter how much I blissfully wish to ease that pain, alas, I cannot (and even admitting something like that, requires a tremendous amount of strength, on my part; I always like to help, when and how I can). However, I can provide you with companionship, here, as can a multitude of others. I can send positive thoughts and loving vibes, your way, in the hopes they cross the oceans an--

Okay, now, I'm just getting poetically corny! LOL!

But seriously, in due time, you'll find that your situation, it can be a learning experience. To focus on yourself, who you are, what you seek, and how you will obtain the means to achieve these answers.

If nothing else, remember this. Even when we have nobody, we still have ourselves. Be kind to yourself, love yourself, and learn yourself. You never know, you might just find that you're a mighty explosion, instead of a meager spark.

 

I think that you really shouldn't care about what people think. Don't allow people to undermine what a great person you really are. If you really do have this feeling of loneliness, then I suggest that you figure out, why is that? They say that you yourself are the only person that can make yourself truly happy. I understand that you want to have companionship, friends and/or lovers that have all of your best interests at heart. As such, you can always contact me for such companionship, someone to talk to, as well as anyone else on this glorious site. That's truly what we're here for and would be willing to help you out .
