And then i feel so empty cuz i look back at all my regrets and when i try to make things better for my life its like somehow i make even more big mistakes....and another thing is I'm trying to let go of the people i was hanging around with like all the people i would be partying with because i know if i do go n chill with them i will be back doing the things i dont wanna do....and now im just lonely as hell...i mean i gotta few friends that dont do those things but they live kinda far away and well now im still lonely as hell..i want a bf but at the same time i want the guy i had been with for 2 yrs(we broke up this past summer)...I still love him but i know things aren't gonna work out for me and him right now and I wanna move on but at the same time my heart won't let me and it affects me when i try to start a new relationship.......well it really felt good to vent some of this out

Replies MsCaesi Posted at 9:12 pm on Jan. 9, 2007 I used to be that same girl. I spent all my time getting high and drinking..having a good time. It takes a lot to just drop that lifestyle and realize that it is time to grow up. I surrounded myself with people that cared about me that were not involved in that type of lifestyle and set myself some goals. I've been clean for over 10 months now and I've never been happier in my entire life. Those first few weeks will be tough, there is no doubt about it, but dont let go. Things can only go up from here. If you ever feel down you can always come talk to me more. I know exactly what you are going through. faithmarie Posted at 8:10 am on Jan. 7, 2007 being lonely is like the worst feeling ever and ten times worse when u also have other issuea as drugs or boy problems. Once you do find that special person who doesnt want to bring you down or those friends who want to see u do good it will be all better until then just vent and try to figure how to be busy, a hobby something. I am in the same boat right now and lonely as ever but my family is my suport so maybe u could go to them too. Hope things work out for u lilac Posted at 5:11 pm on Dec. 27, 2006 Hmmm. Well all I can say is try making friends over again. Friends that don't party hard. But then I guess you wouldn't really know, unless after becomming friends with them. Venting is always good. I like to do it too. il0vellamas Posted at 12:02 am on Dec. 20, 2006 everything will work itself out. just try your best to stay away from that stuff. when i got with my boyfriend i was 17 and partying too often. he got me away from it but also my friends. but who knows where id be if i hung out with those people that are 22 and doing the same shit? it sucks but you can make new friends that can support you and not bring you down. good luck, and elephant, i have yet to find a way to vent depression. but you will be ok too.

Blue Baby Posted at 4:15 am on Dec. 19, 2006 just hang in there...everything is gonna be alright someday... realizing that you need a change is a great start...i know someday soon you will connect with some people and make some real friends and the lonely feeling will pass, just take it one day at a time...i feel lonely lots of times too but i just find something to divert my attention from loneliness like reading or surfing the net or, weird as it is, cleaning the house, you can do sports if you want...and you will find someone special someday as long as you don't give up... dav js Posted at 10:38 pm on Dec. 18, 2006 Post from this position was omitted due to content violations All 7 previous replies displayed.
