I was drinking due to an family member’s health becoming bad that they went into hospital again. I just came from helping the family away from home only for them to be checked in for tests.
After the phone call I started freaking out and doing ‘what NOT to do to improve mental health’ 101 including bingeing on junk food and wine.
I also realised how lonely I am. And while I love the swing events I go to... I do wonder if anyone is actually my friend then just a penis.
And while I’ve been to BMCs and other themed nights... I have met people who want to connect with me.
Sex, video games, nerdy stuff (GoT anyone? As an actor I get WHY THAT character did THAT) and sports are my thing so outside of reading or listening to podcasts... I don’t know how else to socialise... Bar being in scenes.
After speaking to some of you privately I just wanted to say... Thank you.
Sometimes being in scenes takes my mind off things but also I wish I had better social skills to engage and converse without Dutch culture.
I’m on my way to family’s now.
I honestly wish I knew how to start a conversation and see how some of you are doing and if anyone wants to social. |

Plenty of people here would be happy to make genuine friends OP.. it's actually a great place to meet those you can chat openly with about a multitude of things. Glad you're feeling better today. Never be scared to reach out when you're having a wobble x |

I'm glad things are looking up for you OP, there's always light at the end of the tunnel no matter how far away it may seem.
I something wonder though if FAB is a healthy "place" to be when you're down, if you are continually being knocked back or ignored it can seem a much more personal rejection than it really is.
On the other hand, the forum is a nice friendly place and most of us are more than happy to chat.
