I am feeling very sad and need a friend right now. My mind is racing and I feel alone. It is cold here today and it snowed about 3". I saw the pdoc and therapist today and that got me worked up. I just wish there was someone with me right now.

I'm with you in spirit. I too am alone right now. And it's cold here although we haven't got any snow yet this year. Can you call someone? I just called my Dad and my Grandma, and we talked for awhile.

I'm alone a lot. Sometimes I like it, sometimes I feel really lonely.

As the others said, we are here with you in spirit--and in cyberspace lol! Sometimes for me when I was in similar emotional spaces, the loneliness and isolation would bring on anxious, panicky feelings which in turn would exacerbate that sense of being all alone--as well as the "What if I begin feeling worse? Who can I turn to?" What I hope you can do (if you can't find any real life person to chat with) is to reassure yourself that the loneliness and sense of anxiety is temporary...that loneliness in itself will not harm you--it's how we REACT to it that can be harmful. CHOOSE good things--try and call a friend or family member, get caught up in a good movie or book, take a walk in the snow and enjoy nature, snuggle with a pet or stuffed animal and take a nap...

I wish that I was here when you needed me. I'm so sorry. What's going on in your head, how are you feeling now?
