Just curious. So many of us can make friends from those of us suffering far away. I was thinking how many of us area really close geographically? 

I can't get far due to my poor health but was just wondering if anyone from New Jersey was near me.

Hello,I no longer live in New Jersey, but spent a great portion of my life growing up there in places like Marlton, Edison, Medford. Mostly in South Jersey though. I have often thought of the same thing you have as I have some health issues and as a result my days are spent in my small one bedroom apartment. I have absolutely no friends, not even one, and have found that the pain of loneliness is far greater than anything I have ever suffered. I find myself in tears a lot of the time, but with no one to call or talk to I feel like I'm just marking off the days until I die which I hope comes soon. Living in a world void of any happiness or human contact has kept me on the edge of taking my own life for a very long time. I cannot see the sense of continuing on when my every day is spent in pain, physical and mental. I'm not living just existing now. I wish I could have gotten to know you.

Sibling Loss

This group is for anyone that has lost a brother or sister. Sibling loss is often minimized and people don't realize how devastating losing a sibling can be. I lost my older sister and my life will never be the same. She was my only sibling, I looked up to her, I went to her for everything. I lost my past, present and future. It is traumatic.See More

Triggers Continue to Surface

Late February is a challenging time of year for me.  Jen’s birthday is the 23rd and serves as an annual reminder of all of the potential that was lost…Her’s (mainly), mine, the world’s honestly.  This year she would be 52…It is increasingly hard to imagine, through all of the iterations possible, what she could have become, what was to be her (significant) impact on the world.That being said, things, emotions, have largely settled down since I committed a potential version of what could have…See More
