Loneliness is much more painful than the cancer

Hi Y Shir welcome to the forum and so sorry that you are feeling like this. Do you have any family or friends nearby that you could speak with or any services nearby that can provide Community friends for people who live alone as an example. The other thing  I was going to suggest is that there is an awake thread on this site which people post in and its not always about Cancer but general chit chat with others if you wanted to have a look and I have include a link to this that you need only press to take you there. 

Awake thread    

Thinking of you and Im sure that some big hugs wouldn't go amiss so sending some your way for now.xxx

Hi Gail,

meanwhile I moved to Liverpool in Feb, We faced to Kovid so I could not find a chance to find any community friends here:(

Hi Y Shir,  I am so sorry you are feeling lonely and isolated.  Is Skype or whats app video not an option for keeping in touch with friends and family.  I know its not the same but it's quite good.  My husband is away and a video chat with him is always nice.  Otherwise just start chatting to people and posting on this site, it's what I've been doing as I don't want to talk to friends and family I think it will make me feel worse.  I've only told my husband and one friend so far.  We are all different.  Hope this site eases your loneliness.  Wishing you all the best. 

I get you.  I'm feeling exactly the same right now.  I have been for weeks.  Its ok saying have video calls or text but it just isnt working.  I had counselling but here because of covid we could only have 8 sessions because so many people are struggling so we have to find other tools.  I get it but its so hard.

Its so lonely.  I think the loneliness is worse than cancer sometimes.  Covid has made it so much worse.  Some things cant be said on video or texts.  Ive had one visit in weeks and i held onto that. I didnt want her to leave.  I understand why my friends are wary to visit, they dont want to bring and illnesses here, i get it, but i also really need the company, physical company, because being alone is a dark place.  

Shir, go onto the Awake group, ill be there, and at silly o'clock when, im awake and alone, ill find you and talk to you. If you want.  Because i get it.  Take care of yourself.  Im trying to aswell.
