Feeling Lonely


Do you ever feel like you are all alone? 

You can feel like this even surrounded by others! 

Do you ever feel like it is you against the world and that it is just an overwhelming feeling?

    You are not alone in how you feel.

Just know that you can choose to control how these feelings affect you.

You can choose not to let them consume you.

You can choose to demonstrate healthy ways to feel better.

You can:

-reach out to others who are safe and caring
-reach out to a Pastor
-reach out to a counselor
-go to a support group
-attend a small group at a church
-look up community activities such as "Meet Up" to try and make new friends
-PRAY!


-demonstrate healthy self-care behaviors while you are working on reaching out to others

It is also helpful to journal and to get out in nature. 

You can also choose to use this time alone to develop your passions and interests. 

Redefine who you are, what makes you- you!

Choose to find things to enjoy in life instead of focusing on being alone. 

Remember also that you are never truly alone because Christ is always with you. God loves you with an everlasting love. 

Also, try and remember that you are not alone in feeling the way that you do. We were made to be in relationships with others and feeling lonely is natural and normal. 

Just try to demonstrate positive and healthy coping skills and self-care while working on seeking new friendships in healthy ways as well.  


You are Worthy!

A safe place to heal.
