Alone

in Sex & Relationships
I'm feeling so alone. I haven't spoken to anybody in so long because I don't really have any friends. All I want is somebody I can call and chat to but there's literally nobody I can talk to. I keep seeing people on social media posting big group calls and quizzes and stuff and it's just emphasising how alone I feel. What can I do

    Hey @Past User 

    Its really brave that you reached out :) Sometimes it’s hard to join in even when you really want to, you can always start a thread in anything goes about something you are interested in. Chances are others will join in too. 

    :) Also I like your icon, I watched the anime its is from ages ago and now that I’ve seen the icon I feel like watching it again

    Hey @Past User 

    Just wanted to send hugs and echo what everyone else said - you are never alone at The Mix.

    The Mirror wrote an article about loneliness during Covid if you wanted to have a look https://www.mirror.co.uk/lifestyle/health/dealing-lockdown-loneliness-keeping-active-22037767

    Some of there tips are getting some exercise, setting a routine and learning a new skill. Maybe something like joining an online book club or online exercise class could be something that you're interested in? :)
