I feel deflated. I can't imagine myself ever feeling a sense of satisfaction again.

I have been away from home for a while now on a trip and I don't really have a desire to go back yet I don't feel like staying where I am now either.

I feel like there is no place for me in this world.

^I don't know how I could cope without a "home" that I did not have a desire to stay at.:sad: I also don't know how to give comforting words to someone who is suffering from not feeling they belong anywhere. :thinking:
Could you get something like a pet to live with you, so he/she makes the house you're living in worth you coming home because they need and love you? Or do you already have a pet?

I feel like there is the hallow of boredom inside me, this can be filled momentarily by stuff like music, movies, books, an online chat( not many offline options)..but then it is all the same like it always is. I wonder what happy people feel like! Those who feel that life is good. I can say sometimes that..this life is good ( even then I feel like an imposter sometimes) but it soon dies away and then I have this hollowness a kind of emptiness.

It's a strange feeling that I've never experienced before. When on a trip I would always miss home after a while but I have been living out of a suitcase for a month now and I don't miss it.

But it's not because I feel so great where I am.

I will say that there is something deliciously simple about having all your belongings in only a suitcase and a few bags.

Maybe I am meant to be a world traveler now. But that takes lots and lots of $$$!

I did have cats but they have all gone to kitty heaven. So I am taking a break from pets for a while.

I would like an aquarium again though.

Same here.

You described it very well.

Lonely. :crying:

You know I never used to feel lonely. I used to enjoy being alone... And then I made real friends, not just aquaintances but people who I felt knew me pretty well. My boyfriend broke up with me and now he won't talk to me which breaks my heart because he was my best friend as well and now I have no one. I lost contact with other people because they were busy, other people turned out to be *******s. I don't know what I will do... It's weird because everything was fine until two weeks ago when my bf broke up with me and now I realise he was the most important thing in the world to me and now I'm just alone again like I was before I met him.

If anyone wants to talk feel free to PM me. :alone:

Aye, ah've been feelin' like that recently - happy for a moment but then feelin' kinda empty. Cannae explain it. Though, ah can relate tae the whole feelin' like an imposter - that's me most uh the time, especially when ah so******e.

It's not a good feeling, buddy :-(

Nope, it's no' a good feelin' - in fact, it's awfy depressin'...

I get the same feeling, but when the alternative is depression and misery, i prefer the emptiness. Even if it only gets filled momentarily.

Ugh, sorry you're going through that.

That's happened to me before and it's scared me away from relying only on my boyfriend for social contact. I keep saying that before I get a boyfriend, I need at LEAST one good female friend. *sigh*

I hope you feel better soon. I'm sure you know this but keep yourself busy as much as possible, do fun things even if it's alone. Exercise, eat right, all of that. It sounds cliche but it can really make a difference for your mental health.

Yes, it's strange to spend all your time with other people or another person and then all of sudden have all this free time to yourself. I don't think there's anything wrong with being alone, nor with being with other other people. It;s just when you have too much of one or the other, you start to forget how to act in the other. For a better part of a year I had no time to myself, and as the type of person who needs productive alone time this was hard. I've come into a lot of free time to myself all of a sudden, and after going so long without it I have a hard time being productive with it. If I'm alone all the time, I'll drive myself off the deep end, but if I'm never alone I'll turn into an irritable mess of cloudy irrational thinking because I just can't function with reflecting, introspecting, and goal setting. A balance is needed, and switching quickly from one to the other is the worst.

Well put.

I'm the exact same way.
