Alone For The Holidays, Its Turning Into A Tradition.

You're not alone here Angeldoveflies. We are all here for you. I agree its better to be alone than with toxic people, and I know how much it hurts when you trust someone and they take advantage of it. You can always talk to me :). We can get through this together. Stay positive!!

I hate holidays & most days because I am so lonely almost all the time, rarely seeing anyone because I rarely have any real friends. I had to cut myself off from my abusive family when I was a teen for safety reasons & they never loved me or wanted me around at all ever, so I had been spending so much time alone & almost every christmas alone or with toxic people which never helps, but I'd rather be alone than be with any more toxic people...it hurts so bad to be lonely every day to the point where I wish I were never born...I hope it changes for us all here!! I know I need a miracle!!

My New Years resolution is to hate myself 15% less, minimum :)

Makes sense, but its easier said than done. I'll try to make it my new year's resolution this year, to get used to being alone and not get depressed about it. Thanks Wulf420 :)

I've always thought the holidays come with too much expectation. Sometimes you gotta accept that they're a day like any other and if you can be alone and somewhat happy and sane on the plain old boring days, just treat those holidays the same way. Alone doesn't always mean lonely, though I argue that point with myself quite a bit lol.

I wish there was some way we could make our own family with the people who love us.

I'm seventeen, and in the same situation.

It sucks.
