Depression

Lately I've been so depressed...I feel so alone. I try to push through the days only to realize my days will be the same. I have no friends, barely any family. I work I come home and I know I should be grateful because there's people in worse situation than me. What can I do to shake this, sometimes I wish I wasn't ...

If I see "no negative comments" on a post where someone is asking for advice/help again, I'm going to SCREAM

Because so often it's someone who NEEDS to hear the truth but when you're honest, they say you're being negative. Like okay girl, why even ask for help when you only want your own thoughts and opinions validated???

Boyfriend Gone A lot

My BF is a truck driver and often times he will be away for 2-3 weeks at a time then comes home for only two days. I moved to Texas (his home state) I don’t know anyone here nor have any family here.

Single mom

I am a 30 years old mom of a 2 years old cute boy, who is silly 😜 I don't have friends and wish to make one here. Life is hard as a single parent. At times, I do wish I could have someone to talk to, to cry to, and it must be someone who really understands the pain. I do love being a mom

Second Pregnancy Lonliness

Has anyone else ever experienced this? I’m 26 weeks pregnant and it’s been weeks and weeks since anyone reached out to check how I’m getting on. No one ever asks how I am. They will however always ask how my firstborn is and undoubtedly will be very excited when baby is born. Just feels like no one cares about how I...

Advice please (and a little rant)

I’m the first out of my friendship group to have a baby. I can’t help but feel really hurt that my friends keep leaving me out all the time. We were never a friendship group that went out clubbing or heavily drinking and for context we are a small group of couples. However since me being pregnant all they want to ...

Fear of death

Does anyone else have a terrible fear of death? Whether it be losing loved ones of dying yourself and missing out? My anxiety about it is crippling. I cannot, for the life of me, seem to shake it. I guess it’s fear of the unknown and lack of control. All I know is, it’s taking the enjoyment out of life for me and I’...
