Loneliness

Does anyone else feel lonely on here. I feel like I haven’t had any friends since I left school. I’m 33 years old married with two kids and no friends at all. Literally feel like I’ve lost myself, even more so after having kids . Socialising is abit awrkward and finding it hard to make friends. I meet new people then think maybe we could be friends long term then just fizzles out? Does anyone else feel like this? Or is it just me. It gets too much sometimes feel like I’m in and out of depression at times… Feel like I have no one to talk to and it’s the first time opening up about this..

Hey Incognito. Same here. I also put the fault on myself for not putting maximum effort into my friendships in college. It hits hard when you have kids and it’s just you, them and your spouse in your life, but have faith that you will find your tribe. Keep putting in the effort. Don’t hideaway. It will get better 🩷

I feel like starting a family made me feel this way. And then we moved away from everything and everyone we know.

32 here and friendship have been very unfulfilling and difficult the last few years. I’m still figuring out what I want/need from adult friendships because I cannot continue with the dynamics I had before

34 here and feel similar! I'm having a hard time relating to my friend group anymore. I'm the only one now who has a kid and they don't seem to get how my priorities have shifted now.

I wish I could chuck it up to having a baby, but honestly I feel like making friends has always been a challenge for me. And I feel like it’s just harder as we get older. People Dont want to try 😞

Yep so lonely 😭

34 here and it's the same. Having a baby just isolated me even more and made me have no drive to go out or hang out with people because im constantly exhausted 😞
