Hugs are overrated.

I suppose so, but you can't even get so much as a handshake or a smile. And not this kind , thats just not sincere. I think Hassun needs a hug, I'm available if you'd like to schedule an appointment.

Oh boy, you don't want that.

Yes I've felt "isolated" before for about two years then I "fixed" myself this year.

Don't like your current situation? FIX IT!

you know, i have been trying to do stuff about it. i go to clubs,sushi bars, and other social places. not to mention this is the first time i've said anything. i have many close friends, only i have a sense of aloneless always lingering around me. not one of my friends is close enough to relate, they're only fun..and i havent had a bf since last june. it doesnt mean im like this all the time.. i am mostly happy, only sometimes i feel horrible.

I have felt isolated for about 2yrs. now & sometimes I do feel like I am different cause I think I differently from the people around me (at least that is what I think) even if I try & talk about how I feel they just don't seem to understand/comprehend...

I have been trying to "fix myself" , but like bratling stated it is easy said then done... I believe you can't change everything around you with just a snap of the finger... That is one of the reasons why I joined the military... I am trying to change some of my surroundings & that it is the best choice I could of made right now in my life...

All I can say is sometimes it is good to be alone at times to clear your mind & ones' self, but too much loneliness can be destructive to the mind & soul if you let it... You have to take what life gives you & roll with the punches, but sometimes you need someone to pick you up when you get knocked down...

And it is hard to let people in when the ones that are close to you don't fully understand you... I hate when people call you an "emo" when you are not always happy... (not saying anyone called me one yet) , but that could be cause I don't tend to let them see that side of me...

(please dont call me emo, ill find it very insulting and stupid)

I have felt like that before and sometimes felt that it wouldn't go away. But for me I tended to always write in my journal online to see if anyone could help me but the only people who would are the friends who are really close to me online.

I always felt isolated when i was at home with my parents because I felt they expected more of me when I was trying my best but it wasn't good enough. But then when I got my degree results they were more supportive than I have ever seen them and it made things better. Of course the results wasn't what I was hoping for but I still passed.

However, Over the past year my life was turning pretty bad but then talking to my friend who was there really helped me realise that I can't keep things inside and that he would be near for me to talk to. Sometimes all we need is someone to talk to and be willing to just let everything out, well over a period of time so there is not rush.
