| Lonely! Can I relate! I, too, can relate to the previous poster feeling lonely while being surrounded by people. Thankfully, that doesn't happen as often today, and I know that it doesn't last for long. Slowly but surely, I am beginning to connect with others in the real world, and especially with my women friends who are in recovery. They are helping to validate me, and my feelings, and that makes the loneliness easier to bear when it does occur. Thank God for recovery. I remember how alone I used to feel. |
