It goes without saying that this year has been really difficult for most if not all of us. Not being able to see extended family especially during holiday season can feel lonely and depressing. Please, please, please don't make this a solo suffering, use FaceTime, Xoom, WhatsApp, Meet whatever to talk to friends/family if you can.

If things feel worse - don't keep it to yourself, for those in the US - 1-800-273-8255's the number for National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. And remember - this too shall pass, there is a light at the end of this fucking tunnel and we will get through it.

Take care and happy holidays!

Does this number actually help? It’s shared kind of automatically but I find it trivializes suicide

Here's an internet archive link to the original thread: https://web.archive.org/web/20160304102718/https://www.loung...

It only took some guy on a forum one reply and 9 days to get on top of google for "I am lonely". Ah... things sure have changed.

Accuracy mattered more than how relevant Google decided you were to society.

It’s like the “thoughts and prayers “ cliche – something that sounds nice but lacks meaning
