How can I stop feeling so lonely?

[Anonymous]

my last job of six years i was never able to date working 60 plus hours.
i had a lot of money saved up but i took of a year of work if how i was treated my past job.
money is all goon.

i never got my drivers id & have no money for dates.

I prayed to god about girl i know from highschool reaching out to me again. months ago i told her i had a crush think i moved to fast. she got scared we have not talked since.

i live with my mom but she has health problems i worry about her.

i stay in my room when not working, i talk to god & my dead father it does not seem to help my loneyness.

Yo man, I totally feel you - loneliness is the worst. A few things that might help though:

- See if any local volunteering opportunities fit your schedule, like an animal shelter. Good way to meet chill people and feel less isolated.

- Any hobbies you like? Maybe join an online club/forum to chat with others into the same stuff.

- Working out at the gym or going for walks with headphones could be a boost mentally and physically too.

- Shoot that girl a casual text just saying you've been thinking about her and hope she's doing well. Worst she can say is she needs more space.

- Talk to your mom more when you're both home if she's up for company. Might take your mind off things and help her too.

- Maybe pickup a part-time job just for social interaction, even something chill like bartending on weekends.

Keep praying on it man, I'm sure better days are ahead. Just try filling your time with productive stuff so it flies by quicker. And hit me up if you ever wanna game online or something! You got this.

Get to know yourself well and work on your insecurities by trusting and motivating yourself, maybe you could get back on your feet slowly with a part time job or something so you don't run out of money and slowly set new goals for yourself and try to meet new people

Join groups, organizations, churches, anything, until you find your crowd. Everything else will work out from there.

This is good advice.
