Lonely world

So, I'm a 24 year old stay home mum I have a 3 year old girl and 7 month old boy And I feel so cut off from the world... I use to have my mum and grandma to talk to but I lost my mum 2022 and lost my grandma in febuary this year. Everyone tells me I have my partners family but it's not the same. I feel like I'm completly isolated and got no one. Am I crazy for feeling this way, I struggle getting out with the kids due to anxiety and recently been told I could have fibromyalga which is such a big thing as will mean sorting medicine, therapy and controlling symptoms while still looking after my kids mostly on my own.

Ur not crazy for feeling that way my other halfs family is super close and really supportive but my family just isn't at all and even tho my other half keeps telling me I have his family there for me it dosnt stop me feeling so alone especially as I have no friends and my family don't live near by and even if they did they arnt the kind of family that's close my family just don't support each other and just don't turn up for each other heck we had a gender revealing not long ago and my other halfs hole family was there I mean cuzens aunties and uncles and everything he even had a few friends turn up where as I had only my little brother turn up who just sat quietly in a corner the hole time basically and didn't talk to anyone basically and honestly every time I see how close and supportive my other halfs family is it just reminds me that mine just isn't like that and never has been x

@Tilly my other half's family are kinda close but I've not had anyone in my family talk to me unless we are at a funeral and even then I just get a basic hi. Tried asking my sister how my nice was at my grandma's funeral in March and got a grunted fine they don't care about me and I've accepted that but I see how my partners family are and I feel lonely and kinda jealous about it

Ur such a strong and wonderful momma! Whatever happens in your life please know that you are not alone ❤️ you still have your kids there and your feelings are valid. It’s okay to feel that way bcs after all we are just humans beings. Hugs to you momma🥰

@Tilly I literally have the exact same situation. My family is not supportive in anyway they’re not close and I used to watch my NOW exes family they’re Latino so of course that culture is just a very tightened type of thing to begin with and I used to see them always together and spending time as a whole family, and it made me feel way more alone, and it broke my heart to realize I have no friends or family

I’m so so sorry about your mom and grandma. That has to be TOUGH. I would maybe start working on your anxiety. Getting out of the house I feel as a SAHM really helps with those feelings.

I’m in a similar situation! I’m 26 with a 2 year old & a 7 month old. I live in London (I’m from Glasgow, Scotland) I have no family apart from my partners family. I haven’t had time to make friends because I moved here when I was 7 months pregnant with my first! I have such anxiety going out with both babies as my youngest is still breastfed! It’s hard but you’ll get through this feeling 🩵

@Alex I totally get that my family is basically the same on communication unless they want something lol and I totally get feeling kinda jealous and lonely cos of it I feel the same way quite often when seeing my other halfs family lol x

@Katie yessss totally feel that every time I see his family just reminding me iv got no friends and my family isn't like his at all x

@Huda Zaidi thank you

@Brittany I do try and get out but sometimes it gets so bad I can't even go into my garden
