Dealing With Overwhelming Loneliness.

How does one deal with so much loneliness?

This is a problem I had prior to my drinking and drug problems but I've moved a few times since then and am stuck here. I have no friends or anyone to talk to nearby. My best friend barely talks to me anymore after everything I've put her through. I go to AA meetings but there's still so much alone time. Not just merely alone, lonely. Isolated.

I'm tired of being stuck in my own thoughts. No matter whether they're good, bad, or completely random I have no one to share any of them with. Even something simple, like talking about a book I'm reading and really enjoy. Things I used to take for granted. I don't want to drink because that's how I got here in the first place, but at least I don't care if I'm lonely when I drink.
