Do you feel lonely sometimes (even if you are married)?
What do you do to fight loneliness?
Answer:
It is possible to feel lonely even if you are married, in a relationship or even surrounded by a room full of friends.
Personally, I think this comes from a feeling of being unfulfilled in some way, somewhere inside the person who feels lonely does not feel like they are really listened to or that their friends and loved ones do not really 'see' or understand a part of them.
I think this is common, because sometimes connecting fully to others or expressing ourselves gets pushed aside when our daily lives get in the way or we are afraid to let this part of ourselves out.
I find that a creative outlet can help, because you are expressing yourself artistically (you don't even have to be good at it-the expression is the important part). Then you can share the art with someone important.
Joining a book club or some other club with people who have similar interests can help as well.
If this loneliness is joined by prolonged feelings of sadness (more than two weeks) and causes distress or impairment in your daily life then I would also suggest seeing a professional for help. There is nothing wrong with that.
I wish you the best!
Contrast is a wonderful thing. Do you feel less lonely when with your husband, family and friends? Then feel it , own it, Be grateful, your direction should lead you to a place of comfort.
I think it's a very normal human condition as we cycle through our ups and downs.
My remedy is to read a good book, force myself to do something active and finding ways to take my mind off of me.
I can't fight it, not even with the meds--one of my two daughters is getting married this Saturday and I am the most depressed I have been in months. Do you know I couldn't get out of bed for 3 days straight? I kept telling my husband that I have some type of flu---it's depression--and loneliness and depression go hand and hand, and back to YOUR problem--do you still have feelings for your husband? no, not just we are living together going to movies, etc feelings, do you still really love him? Because if you can't answer yes to that, you need therapy to either help you get that back or help you move on. And the next question is how does your husband feel, act and behave towards you? Is it all that you want it to be? Because if it isnt, he should attend some sessions with you after you are established with a psychologist--please listen to me and see someone--these feelings do not go away, they only escalate and usually around the holidays or other special occasions...please see someone and good luck to you...
read a book. I was married for 5 years and felt lonely the whole time intimately anyways. I have 2 beautiful children so i'm never lonely emotionally or physically, and I'm working on my relationship with Jesus so i'm never lonely spiritually.. I love reading books you should try it. A great series of books to read is "Left Behind." written by Tim Lahaye. I wasn't able to put them down. it's christian fiction but isn't all churchy it's basically about the book of revelations in story form. You will love it.
