I Am Lonely

According to this report, loneliness is worse for your health than smoking 15 cigarettes a day or being obese, if it lasts longer than 2-weeks. I’ve been lonely for years, and sometimes the pain of loneliness made my chest ache so bad that I thought it would kill me. I hope my regular exercise and healthy diet, negate the stress of it on my health.

I am sorry for this.

It hurts to be lonely.

I have people who care.

I hope to come to fully appreciate and be grateful for it ,as I should.

Because,to be honest,
something in me,at times,won't let my heart quite believe it.

@SW-User you can be lonely with others, even the ones who care. There are different kinds of loneliness, but it comes down to feeling connected to someone else, especially someone who gets us. 🤗
