Have you ever wondered if anyone cares - or conversely, why nobody cares?

I find myself doing that almost all the time now.

I would go into more of it - but it's all really confusing for me atm - I dont even understand what is going on for why, so I cannot see a way to explain it to you.

Sorry, I probably should not post this - but I feel I need to, so I am. Not even sure anyone will comment or care about this post, but it is what it is.

Take care

It's OK if you can't explain much. It feels like no one cares that much for me, too. There are a couple of people that seem to like me, but I wonder if it's because I can do something for them. And whatever I can do for them, they won't do it for me.

I hope I made sense to you.

You make perfect sense. I have felt that way in past- but atm I know I cannot do anything for anyone bc I am physically unable due to back problems I.have had the past 4mo. There are a couple that seem to like me anyway - but theh are online friends. Not that that is bad - just that they are far away physically, and sometimes I need someone I can look at and know that person is there for me if/when I need them. You know?

I know how you feel too. I am physically useless and cannot help others, the way I would like to be able to.

I have that feeling even when I rationally know people do care. It's left over from childhood and is due to CEN.

Online friends can't be there but often they understand through experience what we are going through, in a way people IRL can't.

Sorry to hear of your CEN. I experienced that as well. Thank you for your kind words and understanding.

I have often wondered this.

from personal experience, I am used to comments like " just take your meds and you'll be okay", or " it can't be that bad, surely", it does make you wonder if people really care.

You never have to apologize for reaching out, Crypts, or for posting how you feel. That's what PC is for and why we are all here!

I'm feeling this way too. We have a beautifully supportive community here, and it does help a lot, but we all need at least one person in our lives to be physically present, offering a kind word or smile when we need it, accepting the love we want to give without being yet another person seeking to use us. It's a basic human need that for far too many people, isn't getting met.

I agree with the others, I also am a survivor of CEN. Hugs to you Crypts and to all in this thread
