Feeling empty

Lately i seem to have lost everybody.

Most people i know have got off to uni, while im still at college. Anybody who im friends with whos left here is just too busy to see me, including my best friend. Im just feeling so empty right now, i normaly keep myself busy at college with work so i wouldnt feel like this and i dont know what to do now.

How can i stop feeling like this? i know its worce because its the christmas holidays and everybodys lovey dovey and crap. But how do i stop it for good?

Iv got nobody i can talk to anymore, i just feel empty and lost.

Sorry for going on.

If it makes you feel any better you can add my MSN, I'm also always looking for new friends too...

Besides that, try talking to people that you can see, even if they're people you feel you will never get on with, there will be at least one person - even one question can lead to a conversation. Best friends will always part at one time or another, and socialisation and sharing of feelings can do a world of good. I'm guessing that this feeling of emptiness is more profound at night time? When nobody is around? It always is for me - sharing with other people is the key.

can't you keep in touch with your freinds at Uni? I know its not the same as seeing them but do you talk on the phone or on msn?

Wouldn't you Uni mates be back for christmas? if not why don't you go and see some of them and have a night out in the Uni?

But don't worry, it's probably just a quiet time over christmas. Things will come together, like firebird said try organising some freinds from collage to go out after collage in the evening?

at my college? not a chance

all those pricks just want sex, drugs, cars, football etc etc etc all the crap i dont, they really dont like me, the only reason anybody talks to me is for help with work.

i just wish i could have somebody to cuddle upto, but noooo thats to much to ask for from this ****ing world, they always just seem to find somebody better and ditch me.

damn karmic retribution

They are ALWAYS busy, they spend all of the xmas holidays with their bf/gfs. :rolleyes:

I can understand why people want to spend asmuch time as they can with there bfs, but do they really have to push everybody else out there lives?

p.s. sorry for bad grammer :redface:

Alright maybe collage isn't a good idea :frown:

how about doing someting where you can make new freinds. Try doing some sport or the Duke of Edinburgh award or something like that?? Just get out there and do stuff and freinds will follow if you make the effort.

No! I hate it when my mates get bf/gf's cos they just dissapear from the world in each other's arms for a couple of weeks until the novelty wears off. (They're not very good freinds though if they just ignore you, prehaps aproach the subject with them?)

I can relate to that.. short of going out to a club or society where you can meet others, (I don't know how shy you are) it may just be a quiet period. You will need to remind yourself it is just a temporary setback, and these depressing (or somewhat frightening) feelings are natural and relate to nothing major.
