I’ve had a rough couple of days lately, and honestly, I’ve been awful to deal with. I don’t really know how to channel everything I’m feeling. I’ve tried talking to people, but no one seems to understand me. Instead, I end up feeling mocked, ghosted, or shamed for how I’m feeling.

What I’ve realized, or rather, what I’m getting more and more proof of - is something I’ve always believed: when things get really bad, you’re truly on your own.

Hmm, same here! Your post is relatable to me. I feel like I'm very much misunderstood.

I have a friend who is 90 years old. You'd think that he'd be great with wisdom and stuff but he isn't. There are times when I feel like I need to change or be the way I used to be. I used to be active and adventurous. Now I feel like it's all sapped away from me. And also I feel like I'm sabotaging myself.

I've told my 90 y/o friend this but he just offers generic advice that seems legalistic. It's off-putting to me. On the other hand I'm very much into myself so there's hardly anybody I come in contact with. He's all that I have and he's not that wonderful.

By the way, I have replied to two posters on here, so maybe you'd might be interested in seeing them.
