I feel eternally alone and it is tearing me apart. I have felt like this forever, since I was a child. but every year it is worse. I try to distract myself from this reality but it's a failure. alone; not lonely. like nobody can touch me. I feel separate from the rest of the world somehow, from people. trapped in a bubble. nobody can get in and I can't escape. deep down in my core I'm one and one alone. no matter who I am with. no matter how much I love them. no matter how many people I am surrounded with I'm alone.
Since you said this has been going on for many years, it sounds like it is something to do with your mental health. I really think it'd be best to talk to somebody you love and/or your doctor. You don't have to go through this alone!
I have always been unable to connect in some kind of way. I am scared because lately I feel sad and I don't want to be alone but it's exactly where I am.
That sounds just like how I was when I was younger. I learned that I have dysthymia, which is like long-term depression (*hug*) Feel free to message me on my wall of you need to talk about anything, ok?
I have always been unable to connect, too. There are people all around me, yet I feel like I am in a separate world from them, and it's impossible to reach out to them. So I get very lonely. >.< I think it's a common experience for autistic individuals. You're not alone~. (*hug*) Try to get help if it gets worse!
I'll second the ask for help bit. Everyone deserves to be happy. Sometimes the first step is the hardest, but you will be glad you took it. I'm always up for talking to people, especially those from other countries.
I am autistic. I didn't know it is a common experience wow thankyou<3 ---------- Post added 3rd Jul 2016 at 10:54 AM ---------- aw thankyou I'm always happy to talk to people also
