What’s wrong?

You could pick up a hobby. I like crocheting sometimes. You could make something, literally or figuratively, out of the things you have around you. I think doing something–origami, duct tape wallets, etc.–takes your mind off of the painful things. Think about it–one can sit around and think themselves to death, or engage their mind in chores or writing. In the past, I had to go to a Jewel at three in the morning for scotch tape because I was so depressed and had no one to talk to, so I figured rather than crying all over the place like I was, I should make an art project out of it.

do you like music?

if not, what do you like?

When i am lonely, bummed out, or just have nothing better to do, some crackers, a bed, a book, and some music is all i need.

You could go to the help.com chat room and chat. I think having a good, friendly conversation with people is always nice. You could also try calling him, that’s also an option. Ha, if I’m all alone, I sing really loudly to music that I know the words to. . .it makes me feel like a rock-star, but if anybody heard, they’d probably freak. I’m guessing that with your son sleeping that it’s not a good idea. . .(^^);; You could surf up youtube or wikipedia. If you’re really bored though, I think sleeping is always nice. Maybe in your son’s room. A little mom-son sleep time, yeah? :D

first off, if it is a chronological lonliness, i would suggest hitting the town, going out and making some friends, you will never get by in a city where you are almost all alone, it is just not good for the psyche, soo for tonight, i would suggest listening to some music, or singing it out loud (which i do all the time too) but not loud enough to wake your kid, or you COULD even chat it up on a chat site or something, and as soon as you get a chance, go out and find some friends, if you look for companionship, i’m sure you could find some.

oh, that can always be a dilemna 0o

well, do you work?

perfect, make some friends at work, alot of times, that is the best place to make some friends

go to a lounge or coffee house within walking distance and find some friends, and if that doesn’t then JEBUS GHRIST! go out into the street and find a friend. go somewhere where there are people and make friends to end this emotional and lonely rut
