When you're stitting alone, you know you're alone… But there's time in your life when people are always there for you, and huddle around you trying to make sure you feel better… But you still feel so alone inside… You know for a fact that you're not alone, but it still feels like you are. People stand in front of you, beside you, and behind you, laughing and having such a great time with you… But you stand off in a corner and watch them as they partake in there enjoiments. You ak yourself, 'Why do I always feel like this whn I know I'm not…?' I ask myself this every day. I have a good family that loves me so much more than needed, I have wonderful friends, and a very loving boyfriend… But yet, I feel so alone… I ponder the very same quiestion every day as I walk through the halls filled with teenagers that could care less if they were in school or not, or the teens that rush to get to class… What's your point of view?

I feel like that a lot of the time. I'm only close with a few family members and have a few close friends. I am going through a divorce so that is part of the problem with me although my exhusband is trying to make things easier for me. Bless him for being the sweet man he is, but being just friends with someone is not the same thing as being married to them and living with them the past 5 years of your life. Somehow it just makes me feel alone when after 10 years of being together we're separated.

I also broke up with my girlfriend I was pretty close to last year too so my trust in people in really low now. I just keep trying to remind myself that people do care to keep myself from going crazy again.

I also am sick a lot and sometimes it's to the point where I don't have the energy to get out of bed. Everyone else is busy with this or that or lives too far away so I am alone when I am sick. I still know that people care though whether they are here or not.

I know what'cha mean…

Yep, I get that a lot as well..

I really hate it, but sometimes I feel like I just need a 'push' so that maybe..hopefully, everything will be fine.

Trust me hun you're not alone, I feel like that all the time.

I have chronic depression, but the difference is I REALIZE I do. There are a lot of times when I'm with friends and I feel extremely alone, like no one understands or my friends are a bunch of back-stabbing jerks (oddly a lot are. xD But at least I KNOW!) Then I realize that I'm feeling that way, and I kick myself out of it.

It's frustrating. It's upsetting, and sometimes it's hard to get out of.

I think I feel alone because I feel like I don't get the attention from my partner that I should be given. It kind of sucks, because i get really quiet and don't really speak to him at all and then he just is like, anytime you want me to leave I'll leave, when all I want is for him to pay me attention. I just get really frustrated and I get depressed. I suffer only from mild depression which I'm not medicated for because I feel like I'm better off just dealing with it.

Sometimes I'm with friends, and I feel like I don't exist sometimes. So trust me, I know how you feel. You feel like the wind blows right through you and that nobody even seems to notice you or if they do, it's like getting a pat on the head from an adult saying "Oh, everything will be just fine..."

I go get counseling from time to time. It may be worth checking into.

I feel totally alone all the time, because "A" most people won't notice when I'm gone "B" even when I yell, most people won't hear me "C"I'm super awkward and a loner "D" I'm used to being alone, so I can't handle most people in real life

I think a lot of people are just so incensative when it comes to other's feelings. Some people just think there are some people who just want attention, but at the same time there are those who really aren't but just aren't getting the attention that they deserve from those they care about.

I agree Locke. I don't go crying for attention and just kind of go off in my own little world a lot of times. I feel a lot of times that I could die and no one would care. =/ I have tried killing myself before just because I got to the point where I really could not take things any more. Now I'm better so to speak but it's still hard to get people to understand that depression is not just "oh look at me I'm emo" and that it is an illness that needs some kind of treatment whether it be therapy or with medications. Although I do not like the idea that doctors even a lot of time just push medications on patients without thinking about it and make things a lot worse. At least that's what happened in my case with every medication I was put on.

That is ecaxtly how I feel. But I don't want to just go up to some person that I don't even know and spill my life story to them…

I know how you feel… I get upset a lot of times at myself because I feel so depressed… But my father doesn't want me to take the pills that didn't even work on him, and I told him if he took me to a couslor he'd just be wasting his money…
