Almost Alone

[demoncatch]

Loneliness is a frequent topic in my therapy sessions. I have very few real friends. I live over 600 miles from my siblings. Both kids live elsewhere for the most part. I don't have a real job so I don't leave the house. My wife works pretty much all of the time. My sole companion is my dog. She has been sick and we took her to the emergency vet

Change is good but it is also hard. Leaving my toxic job was a big and needed change but it's been hard to make any other big changes since then

Thanks. Loneliness has been a struggle most of my life. Even when surrounded by people I've never felt like part of things.

Kind of a mix of both? There are a few people who I connect with individually but then feel different when I'm with then in a group.
