I Feel Like I'm Screaming out the top of my Lungs
in the inside, and no one heres me, or sees my Pain,
I'm not Good at expressing what is that I feel

I mascaraed must of the time Because of Pride, or I
Don't want to make no one think I'm looking for pity
I'm Just in Pain Inside of me

I feel Ignore, and rejected By many, as Dumb as it seems
again I'm not looking for pity

I know I've got support in here, But Lately I've been feeling very
Lonely, in need of Talking to some one, or some one to relate to

and to no avail

I know you've got support and friends who love you here Butterfly. How about face-to-face meetings? Support groups or counseling?

What helps me is to attend my Alanon meetings. We are all so much alike and they understand me perfectly. I also find it so helpful when what I share is of help to somebody else. Do you go to meetings?

pain is God's megaphone. as much as i dislike being uncomfortable i have to admit i learn from discomfort (pain). there is different kind of pain; emotional, spiritual and physical. i don't want to give up what I DO know for what I DON"T. right now; i don't know much cept' that God loves me. that's a lot/enough ...for today. BUTTERFLY-7... i wouldn't have participated here if it wasn't for your post. thank you - take care of YOU. blessing from the west coast

There is a song a friend of mine would sing. I will need find the CD to get the words right but from memory they are something like this...

When things go right...Praise His name.
When things go wrong ...Praise His name.
When we feel we are in the dumps...Praise His name.
Lift your hands and praise His name.

I was at a party at my sister's house. About 20 people there but I felt alone. I wasn't relating to anyone there. Most all of them had a few beers and I don't drink. Though there was ok conversations with a few, I stll felt alone in a crowd.
An hour ride home and now sitting alone in my room. I read a few pages of the bible as I was reflecting on the things I had just read, I felt that the room was full and I wasn't alone. That one day showed me no matter where I am or what I am doing...The Lord is with me always. It took my pastor reminding me that even in the crowd of the party...He was there, the same as He was with me in the stillness of my room.

You are never alone. The Lord is with you always.

*HUG*
