Why does it feel like you’re the only one who’s feeling lonely?
Like everyone else is happy?
Like everyone is having fun without you?
Like the entire world is in motion and you’re not a part of it?
Why do you feel invisible, forgotten, like you’re on the outside looking in?
Like everyone else has it all figured out, while you’re lost?
Like there’s no point in even getting out of bed some days?
Why does it feel like it’s always going to be like this and nothing will change?
Logically, you know other people feel like this, but in the moment why does it feel so fucking strongly like you’re the ONLY one feeling like this?
Maybe it’s not talked about enough.
Maybe too many people suffer in silence, so it seems like there aren’t as many like you.
So, let me be brave and share that I have these feelings too.
You are not alone.
And you are not invisible.
I see you.
I hear your silent pain.
And I am giving you the biggest hug.
It won’t always be like this.
I love you.
