I'm sad, abused, neglected, and scared...can anyone give me some advice to make me happy and not so alone?
hello, I know you wrote this a while back and I hope that things have changed for you I really do.
I've been through a similar situation... my dad abused me physically and my mother acts like she hates me. She says some very mean things without provocation. I was running on a very low point with everything.
Because of this I focused my energy into things and studied very hard because it helped me to get away from my problems. I preferred this because it helped me to gain some of the highest grades at a-level in the UK! How great is that... and the best part is, is that I owe it to the people who put me down. Channelling your energy into something can be hard but once you find it... you'll feel like you're problems are inferior to the goal that you're trying to reach.
Other things that help are movies, music, painting... in time once you;ve found peace with yourself... go try to find some friends who have similar interests.
The best thing about people like us is that we appreciate the smaller things in life... and because life knocks us around quite a bit, we usually end up becoming stronger and nicer people... learn to love yourself there’s nothing more effective than that at making someone feel happy.
awwww. i was SO alone. and i know it sucks when people say 'ohh blah blah blah i felt depressed too' but you gotta just accept people because the fact is that were all more alike then we think. so hang in there man, dont end it!!! [youre life i mean] i dont know if youre a social person, but im not. and i started to be more outgoing and it realllly helped me w/ depression/lonliness. like- for me- i was at the point where i didnt even feel like getting happy again because suicide was so close. [btw i would never be this open- its just because ur a stranger]. but just open up to allll possiblities at this time- life does get better [i hated when people said that to me] but it does. =D be happy!! its fun! god- i mean- i was JUST about to commite suicide a couple days ago. then i opened up and finallllly reached out to my mom, and all the sudden im like , content w/ life. oh- and God always helps too :D
Join a gym. Join a band. Join a rec center. Join a cooking club. Join a book club. Hang out at the bookstore and strike up platonic conversation with someone. Ask a friend to go have coffee with you and get to know them. Take voice lessons. Join a choir. Get a dog. Get a cat. Go on a trip. Go to a concert with a friend. Hang out at a poetry reading. Invite a neighbor to dinner. Go on a roller coaster. Take a walk in the park. Babysit someone's kid.
If someone is abusing you, call the police. If you are sad, go to a tanning bed and buy yourself a pizza afterwards. UV rays fight depression. So does pizza :).
Wallowing in your pity only makes things worse. Take my word on that one.
aww everything will be fine. Confide in someone you REALLY REALLY trust or talk to God-he'll never let ya down =)). And, yes, music! Music is like the greatest thereapy out there! Burn cd's with sad songs and ones with happy songs. Listen to whatever cd corresponds to your mood. You HAVE to have faith & expect things of yourself. Don't give up, not just yet... hang in there. Just believe in yourself, no matter how corny that sounds. I used to feel that way; lost and alone, but I overcame it && you can too! =))
Hey man like in what sense like a girlfriend or friends , for a girl friend just find some one that catches your attenion (make sure she's not all complaning (for lack of more better expressing word), if you don't know her just ask and find out about her as you go along just get up the guts, for friends get an instrument like giutar guitar(electric or acoustic) try joining a band or making one or go out and do some thing good for charity like a food pantry.
I too was once alone but then Jesus opened my eyes and I realized that I wasn't alone anymore. "The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged." Deuteronomy 31:8 If you have the chance listen to shadowlands by rebecca st. james. In Christ, CT
