Have you ever felt that no one understands you even if you know they want to? Right now..i have this feeling that's always bothering me..actually that feeling made me numb...feelings of fear,sadness,hurt,pain,wound,hatred,self-pity,guilt and anger..all because of love...it's not a really good feeling..i don't know right now if i must be happy that i'm nemotionally numb right now or feel sad about it because i lost the former self i once had..the emotional me... now,i don't know what to feel and what to do about this...

Its been with me sometimes. I dont know how to explain it. It was like "I am there for everyone but no one is there for me." I felt as if the the whole world was against me. Well it was basically my fault but i was ready to repent for it. But no one seem to be with me. But its a part of the past. Its gone. And i dont want that same type of moment to come back again. I now try to avoid to fall in such kind of situation. Its not good to feel alone. Positive thinking.

it's hard to be a postive thinker but i guess it's the only way.. but it's not just that, you want someone to be with you always..i mean to be there for you always and give support..*sigh*

By my experience......i say that we all feel that no one is there with you. Its like you are sitting in a dark room in search of some light. But thats not the truth. Someone is always there to help you out with things. Its just time that should be allowed to flow off and then you will find that you were not alone.

yes, of course i have felt like that as well in the past... most of the time i feel my hubby does not understand me and he only wants me to understand him... well, i know that kind of feeling is very sad... my suggestion is just to ignore it and try to do something that you like and enjoy... over time, i believe that the feeling will go away by itself... at least that is what happen to me...

Yes I have felt this many times before and I hate when I feel that way as I also find that nothing makes me happy at this time eiteher . I feel like I am doing everything alone and no one understands anything that I am saying or doing and no matter how hard I try to explain it doesn't make sence to anyone but me and then I start to feel differently about others and find I end up becoming depressed . I wish I had something to offer you to make you feel better as I hate feeling this way but all I can do is tell you that you are not alone and that other's have felt this way as well . Take Care

You are just simply lost in this world of emotions. Dont despair and never let your emotions drive you in this kind of dilema. IT is common to feel this way from time to time but once you have realised that your mission in this life is definitely NOT to feel like this, you will certainly feel there is a better alternative to this. Keep me informed how you get along later....

Yes sometimes it becomes very difficult to communicate.With me it happens most of the time with my boyfriend.I know he tries to understand what I'm trying to say but I somehow fail to convey the write meaning and end up saying something bad.The most difficult to express yourself is when you are at any extreme emotional state, like you are very happy or vey sad!It sometimes irritates me when I can't say something properly and I desperately want that person to understand me!

That's right...it's not that easy to make someone understand you or something like that..and when you can't explain..you have the fear that he/she won't understand something about you and judge you wrongly..

Yes, I have felt like this, and I think most people do NOT understand this. Most people go through their lives without ever really being critically self aware. We learn to block our feelings and mask our insecurities until we lose ourselves in the process. This kind of thinking to many is just crazy, but I think it has many purposes. One of which is changing your life, making it what you want it to be.

I am constantly irritated by people criticizing my feelings. That's the same thing as someone not understanding you. For example, today was the summer outdoor soccer opening day. Pretty much every kid in town plays soccer so the whole town was there. My cousin and her husband were talking with me and my husband. She asked if we were going "down home" this summer? We always get asked that question and it drives me nuts. We live in Ontario, my husband is from Prince Edward Island. It is an 18 hour drive for an single individual, 22 hours when you have kids. My girls and I do not like driving. We do not like drives more than an hour. As I get older it is getting harder for me. My illness (fibromyalgia) probably plays a factor. We have in the past decided to divide the drive into two days staying in a hotel. Still, it is a loooong drive. The girls and I want to fly. Hubby says it is too expensive for the four of us to fly and refuses to do it. So we have this argument every time someone asks if we are going down east. When I mentioned that we don't like the drive, my cousin said, "Suck it up!" Ggggrrr! That made me so angry. When my father passed away last year I had a hard time because I felt like he was the only person on earth who understood me, who didn't judge me or criticize me. And it is true, he didn't. But he could have been holding back too. He was always the gentleman. I have no one to turn to for comfort because all I get is criticism. Am I really such a bad person that all my thoughts and feelings are wrong??? I think we have to accept that everyone is different. No two people are alike in looks (except twins), thoughts, feelings, like, dislikes, etc. I try to instill that in my teenage daughter all the time. But really I would like to give the whole word a big shake and tell them that I have a right to my own feelings. I am an individual, you are an individual. You feel what you feel and I will feel what I feel. But we can't do that, can we? But if we were to find someone who does understand us, who does understand how we feel, does that get us anywhere? My mother understands that I can't handle the long drive and that my youngest gets carsick and hates it and my eldest hates it when people get carsick. SHE understands. But having her understand doesn't get my husband to understand and accept it. He is the person who needs to. So even if we find someone that does understand, it's not the right person. That person can empathize with you, but they cannot change things for you. That's when I wish I was alone and don't have to answer to anyone but myself and my feelings.

There are times that I feel like that, alone and abandoned. Because most of the people we thought that could help us, never really understand what we really wanted. I fell and no one was on my side to help me stand, and these things made me realize that I am the only one who's really responsible for myself. Not them, my friends or family, but just me. I guess only time can tell, the healing process may take long and that we won't never be the same again. But atleast, we learn from it and take it as an experience in case we fall in love again in the future. I am sorry that you feel this way now, I hope that you overcome it as soon as possible!;)

Stop right there and sit down for a moment and start pulling yourself together. It would be best to ask yourself where you are now before you start moving to any place. Young as you are, it is very common to cross that direction getting lost, insecured about everything around us especially ourselves, anything that feels so bad seem to get attracted to us. Do not despair, you are just passing through a stage in your life when you just need to clear your slate a bit and redraw or rethink your situation. Try to value yourself more coz if you dont you will never know how to value others around you. Try to remove all insecurities that you are feeling about yourself by trying to ask yourself many questions and noting them one by one and seeking to understand where these insecurities come from. WHen you seek to overcome these fears or insecurities, you will feel much better and I assure you making a decision will be much easier. Good luck then!:)
