Does This Time Of Year Remind You Of How Lonely You Are?

[saffy]

I hate this time of year. Particulary because I am reminded everyday that I have no support or companionship when things matter.

I have had one pity invite for Christmas dinner, yep that makes me feel great!!.

I have also invited a few people out for a drink and got declined everytime.

I am now stocking up with drugs to block it all out. So I will make it till next year without any sense of the world.

Does anyone else think like this or am I just bah humbug

I understand, Saffy. Its hard for me to have friends, or to ask folks over. I feel really strange going to someone else's house for the holidays since it is so different. I have my son, and my family is too far, so we at least have each other. I will be on here the 25th, as well as several others, so please stop in and visit.

I certainly understand how this time of year can and sometimes does remind us of our lonliness. It certainly has for me, in prior years.

Yet now truthfully and for too great of a chunk of time, almost any day reminds me of how lonely I am, holiday or not.

Sending you cyber hugs saffy and I'll be wishing you an unexpected and pleasant surprise; A safe release through these holidays.

((((saffy))))

Saffy its a tough time of year for anyone with past trauma, hurt or loss. I hope you can find things to just make you happy over the holiday's. Spoil yourself! Thats how I do it now and it is much more enjoyable. :hug:

Yes. More than ever this year, since my Dad passed away on the 8th. My mind won't let those mental pictures go away!

I am sorry for your loss. Time does heal. I lost my sister last year in November. The missing and memories will never go away but it does not hurt nearly as much as last year. Keep yourself well and try to have a wonderful holiday!

I am so sorry for you guys/gals losses. I know just how hard that is. I hate this time of year. Since 1965. One would think i'd be over it by now. But i'm not. But this year is better than any in the past. I'm finally able to see a light at the end of the tunnel.

Saffy, i'm sorry I wasn't here for you earlier. I've been having my own little pity party but now I can get off the pity pot and we can all hang out together on Christmas. I'll try to be someone you can tolerate. If I misbehave, just tell me to go to my room. :)

Saffy. I feel you. I do. I'm lonely and sad this Christmas. I have my son and I love him to pieces. He is my world, but as for adult companionship....I'm sorely lacking.

Everyday is lonely for me. At least now stores and Starbucks are open later and on Christmas so that there's more to do. Just this year it sucks because I don't have a job. I have a month left....

I do feel lonely on the holidays. I am blessed, I have my husband and my daughter and her family, and my sister. I will only get to see my daughter and her family for Christmas. On...

I just wrote out a response and it got deleted.

I have my husband, my daughter and her family, and my sister. My husband has a brother who has written him off. It is such a shame. We will go over to my daughters house on Christmas Day. The rest of the holidays, I do not know for sure.

I really feel for you. I do feel lonely on the holidays for all of the people in my family that I have lost. It is hard getting older. I get lonely at times.

I really feel for you. My heart goes out to you. I hope you will be able to heal to the point that you will not feel lonely anymore. Big hugs to you.
