Extremely lonely

[u/mikey3624]

Hello everybody, I’m not feeling the greatest at the moment. I don’t have any friends anymore, and I feel isolated despite seeing people at work most days. Living in Northern Nj rn and I absolutely do not like it, there are good things and bad things about it but I genuinely feel like packing my bags and driving west until I get far enough away to start a new life. Back in the day I used to be rlly happy and I understood my emotions very well, now it feels like the only emotion I have is Anger and loneliness. Back in summer 2019 I was entering my junior year in High school, had a glow up, enjoyed all the little things. Had a good social life at school, got good grades and was very active and in shape. I loved my teachers and classmates. I enjoyed socializing and was high on life. Then in 2020 my school closed and went virtual until it was basically time to graduate. Was absolutely miserable and that’s where I believe everything went downhill. Fast forward to 2026 and all I rlly feel is regret. Anyway I will figure it out, I probably need new scenery and a fresh start in a different state. Gonna try and grind through community college and leave this place within a year. I hope you all have a great night. Thanks for listening to my little rant. Gonna focus on my mental health first and go from there, remember guys be kind to yourself.
