Oh but if someone is truely in grief that means there has been an intense, profound I dunno deep sorrow do to a specific event and I am very compassionate about grief.. ON going self pity is unhealthy.. Grief is healthy.. I am not talking about grief in my post in anyway

We wouldn't be human if we didn't get lonely! But that doesn't mean you have to move into the pity me stage of development!

I’m not OK, You’re not OK, and That’s OK

So many people post topics about .. I’m lonely, why me, no reason to get out of bed in the morning, no one emails me….. The good old feel sorry for me me me me posts…….
You all know the posts… It gives a lot of us the , “Oh god not this again “ feeling
There is nothing less appealing to either gender then the "I am desperate and needy post"….

There are ways to combat this feeling of hopelessness…
Volunteering, creativity, spirituality, classes of interest, groups of interest and many many more….
Focus on your life not on just your wounds. On what you love. Use your insights you were born with them..
Find your gifts share them with others. Find your hope, lose your outer shame, build new dreams and rediscover meaning and purpose in your life.
No one can fix you……… but you
You can rediscover the strength and grace that already lies within you.
When you have done this
You are then ready to embrace the dignity of risk
