Good onya for tagging @Shaz51

Re: Suffering in silence

Hey @Lonelyhart welcome!

I know the experience of feeling invisible.

The forum has helped me connect to people here and then build a bit of confidence in the outside world. 

I like gardening too. It's absorbing for me, and I like being outside. We have a forum community garden. I'll tag you in case you haven't already found it.

Anyway, just wanted to say I read your posts and appreciate how difficult it can be feeling isolated/invisible. Take care.

Re: Suffering in silence

Hi @Lonelyhart I live alone too (past 9 years), not by choice.

Separated for 9 years.

I'm sorry to hear that you feel largely invisible to other people - I know that feeling very well, unfortunately.

The only time (mostly) that I do not seem invisible to others - is when I stuff up (eg at work), or when people do not like what I'm doing (or how I'm doing it).

Then I am suddenly very visible, for the wrong reasons....

I'm too tired tonight to say much - just wanted to say hello, & hope you find helpful connections here.

Re: Suffering in silence

Hi @greenpea I'm ok now thank yo I'm trying to stay positive and focused ,but my head is like a rollercoaster ride inside. Its 12.20 PM here and I lay in bed total darkness and it's like a projector screen of all my faults and failures lights up the room🙁.I honestly have never felt so helpless to my own life...:face_with_rolling_eyes:

Re: Suffering in silence
