I feel most of the time like I am in a crowded room. You know, that feeling of being surrounded by so much people but still feeling really lonely. At some point I had friends, and people who I felt cared about me. I moved from Spain to the U.S when I was 14 years old. Getting used to a new place was never easy, and it still isn’t. I can say I never really got used to it. Moving is one of the decisions I regret the most in my life. However, I have been here for 8 years now, so there is not much looking back. The only times I would feel happy was when I went for vacation to visit my friend and family. Unfortunately, my dad died recently, so there is not much way in me going back. Not only did he died, but as cliche as it may sound, a part of me did too. I can’t ever go back, I don’t want to go back if he is not there. So, now what? I feel stuck in a place which I never really liked in the first place. All I have left now is my mom, which is what motivates to keep things up. Anyways, this was more for context. How can I deal with loneliness and make things at least a little easier. Maybe at some point get completely used to it.
That’s a sign of depression yo. See a doctor as soon as you can.
You get used to it. Acceptance isnt easy, but life is simpler.
Not to be flippant, but remember that there are lots of things worse than loneliness.
go back to spain?
you need to get involved with the community, volunteer, join community events, talk to people any chance you get. eventually you will make friends.
if you just go to work then run home, never meet anyone, you will not have any friends.
Find a community that you can meet up with every week. Go consistently. You will make friends.
