I’m not exactly sure what to say but I am a woman, I am worn out by life and I’m only 33. I have been estranged from my family since I was 16 but put myself through college and have a professional qualification. I have always worked to pay for my education, flat, bills etc. and that is fine but for some reason I am just fed up with everything. Relationships haven’t been much better, but I recently fell in love with a really good man, however he didn’t want to get into a serious relationship and I decided to respect his decision and broke up with him. I guess I sometimes just feel tired, like life is wearing me down and I don’t want to become cynical or bitter but I feel very alone sometimes. I am not suicidal or anything like that but I just wonder what is the point in living when life is just a series of hardships and when you try your best to be a decent person but things seem to never improve for the better. I feel ashamed of myself for feeling this way when I should be grateful for all the good things I have in my life but I guess I’m lonely and would like more support in my life.

if your life never seem to improve, you can try improve the lives of others. do some charity work. you can make a difference in somebody’s life whose life is probably worse than yours. maybe then, you will see the world in a different light. :)

You’re not alone. I am positive that everyone experiences these feelings from time to time. It must be very difficult to be estranged from your family. But it sounds like you are a very wise, independent person. Maybe you are just bored with the same routine (I know I have been), so why not take up a hobby or do some volunteer work? It will be up to you to put yourself out there. Try to make new friends or spend more time with old ones. Maybe get a puppy? It always helps me to have a girls’ night when I’m feeling down. Go out and have a good time and clear your head. I think you just need some variety. Spice things up a bit! Good luck :)
