oops I thought that this last reply was going to be short @Steven78 

Apologies.

Hey @Steven78 ! How are you going? I don't think I've introduced myself yet. I'm tyme, one of the peer support workers on the forums. 

Here's a personal invite to have an e-cuppa with us at Share a cuppa? 

Looking forward to seeing you there. Let us know how you'd like to have your cuppa - coffee, tea, herbal, hot choc?

Hi .thanks for the offer ,I'm sure you all mean well but as an isolated human being I feel dehumanized by the sheer isolation.. (horrible being so worthless and unwanted ).

Hey @Steven78 ,

Perhaps something like this can be the beginning of feeling less isolated? It doesn't replace face to face connection, but it's a start?

I've lived many years feeling completely and utterly isolated. It was a lot of effort getting out of it. It was comfortable, but launching into the deep has made all the difference.

So yes, my offer for a cuppa is still definitely there!

It actually just reinforces the fact that I'm isolated and have no one to turn to in a one on basis ,that is dehumanizing but I'm used to that feeling unfortunately. It would take someone who genuinely cares to change my circumstances.
