    The reason I haven't felt alone..

    ...is because of you guys

    I was thinking earlier how I spend my entire days almost completely alone. Day in and out, for four entire weeks now. And despite that, I haven't felt all of it. There's a lot on my mind tonight so I'm incoherent, but just thought I'd let Anxiety Space know what it's been for me. I'm self-absorbed, obnoxious, strange, cowardly, and awkward, but you've just accepted me as it is. You've been my family

    I've felt the best and worst of myself, and of others. I never thought I'd ever be deserving of the kindness I've been shown, both here and elsewhere, and if I hadn't gone on this whole whatever-it-is, it wouldn't have been something I'd have experienced either.

    I think I've felt less alone here, by myself in Montreal, than I was back in Vancouver. God those were some [BEEP] times. This trip has been worth it.

    I'm glad you can find some support here.
    It really sucks to have to be alone like that and I'm happy you feel less such. That's been me since my life went to [BEEP] a few months ago, but I'm just
    preparing for something new. Goin on a trip of my own thru USA to Toronto and really excited. Being at my old home with a good friend
    will help me a lot I think.

    So happy you've found somethin' good! Things will continue to get better!

    Oh what's happened, Skippy? And you won't regret the trip, being in a different environment can really help. All the painful associations you've made with your current location, whether consciously or subconsciously, are removed and it's less easy to trigger yourself. Keep us updated, I'm interested in your travel experience too.

    I feel the same way, honestly. It's always nice to come here to chat and post with people as most of the time.. I don't have anyone to talk to throughout the day when home (like today). You guys are an amazing bunch

    We're always here for you, Inane
    And you're not self-absorbed and obnoxious! I think that about myself too. I think you're a kind, intelligent, brave, and amazing person.
    And if you think you're strange and awkward, so be it. There's nothing wrong with either of those. I should know
    And you guys have become my family and my biggest support system as well. I honestly don't think I would've made it through the past few months if it hadn't been for you guys on here. I would either be dead or in the mental hospital.
    So thank you.

    It's a great place, huh? I don't have anyone I can talk to offline about anything that actually matters, so it's definitely nice to be able to come here for support. Glad to hear that you feel your trip has been worth it! You'll find your way - and if not, well, you've always got us.

    You're definitely not any of those negative things you listed about yourself.

    And yes, when I was jobless and homeless, this place was home. Heck, you guys have been there for me through so many things.

    Lots of loving, caring people here.

    Broke up with my fiancee, lost my place to live, the only friends I had left were those who just came to me when they wanted somethin'. Nothin' here
    for me anymore. I'll be so happy to just get away from everything.
    Yah! I'll post lotsa pics n stuff! I'm meeting lotsa friends from tiny so it's gonna be lots of fun. Then I can rest in Ontario for awhile before I work on a new life; could really use the rest.

    I'm sooo glad to see people are really feeling the benefit from this website. It's exactly the kinda thing we was lookin' for!
    Hugzzzz to all!
    I'm so glad you see it that way- rest. The past month has been very content for me.

    Hugs, Skippy. I'm sorry all that happened! Besides your home, you didn't lose anything of value- you'll find a new and better home, as well as friends

    And everyone.

    Indeed, 'tis a nice place for some peer support; I'd feel a bit worse off without it.
