I feel so lonely I cuddle my plushie, masturbate to photos of my ex whom I haven't spoken to for 7 years rather than photos of the person I currently like (in order to stop the feelings getting stronger), and whisper 'I love you' to myself most days, wishing there was someone I could say it to?

I know writing a post like this is the online equivalent of acting like a sick little puppy just waiting to be kicked. But why should loneliness, and the things that loneliness can reduce you to, carry so much shame? Like many other things in life, it hurts.

    People living cush in nice houses getting unemployment call people in worse situations selfish for wanting the quarantine to end.

    This whole thing sucks. At least some things are starting to reopen

        Everything but supermarkets and liquor stores with limited hours, couple places doing take out.

        No places where the populace congregates

    Quarantine/social distancing is pretty shit, especially if you live on your own. If it carries on for much longer, lots of people’s mental health will probably be seriously affected by it. But it has to end at some point, you’ll get through it.

    Humans are social beings at their core. And yes a lot of others are going through the same struggle.
