I hope folks can start getting the help they need. Feeling lonely every day leads to suicidal ideation, that leads to suicide. If there’s one thing I wish men were worse at it’s that but if suicide was a professional sport women wouldn’t even make the team.
I don’t see it happening. I’ve been in this boat for like twenty years. I don’t have anyone who visits or hangs out with me. I only see my coworkers on the work floor, which is 1-2 days a week tops. Also, no one I know considers it an issue worth debating, let alone take action over. “Let them sort their own issues out”.
If I want to get drunk with strangers, that’s always an option, but it doesn’t really interest me so I pass.
There’s hope yet! Women are getting better at the sport every day!

I’m so relieved to have gone through adolescence before the age of social media. It was an extremely difficult part of life (for all of us, some more than others) already. I can’t imagine how completely terrible it must be now.
