Loneliness

Hi, my name is Fernando. Sorry long post incoming. I am here because i really am in need of support🙁. Last week i got diagnosed with reactivated EBV . 3 years ago i also had Epstein bar virus. I was really sick and never recovered. I got depressed, had chronic fatigue , was constantly ill with flu like symptoms.

These years were super traumatizing for me and it felt i never would get my life back. After 3 years i felt that with time i was recovered for 70%. I felt hope which i once 100% lost. But last month i felt nonstop like i had the flu. So i did a bloodtest and reactivated EBV was the result.

I feel so tired and drained. And guys honestly i am so traumatised by the last couple of years that it feels my worst nightmare is becoming reality right now. I am so incredible scared with the reactived EBV diagnosis and i feel so lonely and helpless as nobody of my friends understand and the doctor doesnt take it seriously. That i am in a nonstop anxiety fear mode right now. It feels like being healthy is just not for me. I really hope i can find support and positivity on this forum. Looking forward to read and talk!i also dont want to do this journey alone anymore. If anybody has any advice in healthcare practisioners who can help with online coaching pls let me know.cheers, Fernando

Hi everyone, I’d like to introduce myself first.

My name is Maja, and I’m from Serbia. I gladly, always, and openly talk about everything.

My mental state is quite complex and challenging. I face intense emotions every day, and it feels like anger takes over most of the time. Small triggers can easily throw me off balance, and I spend most of my days struggling with my emotions—whether it's anger, sadness, or sudden bursts of happiness. I feel like my emotions are so strong that I sometimes have no control over them.

Panic attacks have become a part of my daily life, and I often feel suffocated and restless, as if my body won’t allow me to relax. Noise easily disturbs me, my heart races, and I feel like I’m constantly in a state of alert. I haven’t been on therapy for two years, and I try to cope with everything on my own, but sometimes it feels like it’s too much for me. What affects me the most is the feeling that people around me don’t understand what I’m going through. I try to express my emotions, but I feel like my words don’t reach them. Sometimes, I feel lonely, like I’m facing all of this on my own, even though I wish someone would truly listen and understand me. Despite everything, I try to find ways to cope with my inner struggles. Writing about mental health helps me channel my emotions and feelings. Through this, I realize that I am not alone in facing these challenges.

I am still trying to find balance, to understand myself and my emotions. I want to connect with people who are going through similar experiences because I know how hard it can be when you have no one to share your feelings with. If you feel the same way, know that you are not alone. #MentalHealth #BipolarDisorder #PanicAttacks #Depression

Hi, this is authenticconnections. I'm here because I want to join this community to help. We advocate mental health awareness specifically on MEN.

Authentic Connections is a groundbreaking podcast that tackles the silent epidemic of male depression and loneliness. Born from personal experience, this platform aims to create a safe space for men to connect, share, and heal.
The podcast features conversations with friends, colleagues, and thought leaders, sharing personal stories, discussing coping strategies, and exploring ways to build meaningful connections.

Founded by someone who realized during the pandemic that what felt safe was actually fueling a deep depression, Authentic Connections strives to break the silence surrounding male mental health. The show's mission is to build a community where men can connect on a deep level, create an environment for honest, vulnerable conversations about mental health, provide resources and support for those struggling with depression and loneliness, challenge societal norms that prevent men from seeking help, and ultimately reduce suicide rates among men.

By fostering authentic relationships, Authentic Connections believes it can help men start their healing process and create stronger, kinder communities.

Join us as we work towards a future where men no longer suffer in silence, and where friendships are deep and meaningful, families are stronger, and communities are more connected.
