Everyone feels misunderstood at some time. Do you often feel this way? If so then maybe you're not communicating with others as well as you could. You may need to be more honest and up front with people (without hurting anyone's feelings) and let people know what needs you have. Too often people, especially women, think that they can't come right out and ask for things but no one's a mind reader so it's good to try and be open with people.
On the other hand, you may be expecting too much from people. People, including family and friends may not always agree with you or may not want to do what you're asking of them, but it doesn't mean they don't understand you.
If you're just feeling really down right now it's natural to get this feeling of isolation so I'd suggest talking it out with someone you trust and getting some feedback from them.
Take care

I'm sorry, I don't understand your question. (KIDDING!).
Yes, especially if you are a teenager, or thereabouts. Life is changing in every way, people are changing, school is challenging, and that's just the beginning! Life stays that way, but there is a silver lining to the cloud, and it is that you find that you are a lot more adaptable to change as time goes on! Things are still difficult at times, but because you are older and more experienced at life, it doesn't present the same problems as it did when you were younger. Have faith that your feelings of doubt are completely normal--sometimes it seems as though NO ONE ON EARTH can understand what you're going through! But you will overcome your worries and doubts!! I have complete faith in you! And here's hoping that you gain your strength soon, and that your life is filled with LOTS of happiness, to go along with some of the disappointments!!

I've always felt lost or confused to if im doing the right thing in life and if i really should keep on going...but I have to look past all my faults or my good things that are holding me back from living. Just take a breather. Don't wonder if something you did do was something you shouldn't have done at all. You did what you did and are doing what you are doing for a reason and to question it means you're living life just right. Confusing I know...just read into it.

You would be surprised to know that EVERYONE feels lost sometimes. It is not just you at all. Even the CEO's of big companies feel like that at times. But, you have to keep moving forward. Choose to not be alone. Force yourself to get out there out of your own little corner. You will see that there are others with far worse problems than yours. Don't wallow in it, change it! Make yourself understood. People are not mind readers--if you don't tell them they won't know. They don't know when you need help unless you ask them for it. So do it!

I think we all feel that way. I felt that way for the longest time until I started opening up to people and I began to realize that there are so many out there that have basically the same problems and struggles that I have.

yes, yes, and yes!!! There is an inner "you" that you are trying to figure out. It takes time, and if you are like most of us, you are impatient. Focus on one thing at a time. Try not to overwhelm yourself with lots of things at once. And really, it doesn't matter if anyone else understands you, just know youreslf, and love that person!!

I completely understand you. That's me too. Are you feeling
depressed also? I often feel that no one listens to me. And
sometimes, it is true. I live in a bldg. with alot of older people.
It's a HUD bldg. and low rent. I'm 51 and believe me I have
spent many nights after a fight with the old ladies on my floor!
You probably have low self-esteem also. Me too. I would
suggest counseling - it is helping me. :)

You are NOT the only person on the planet to feel that way. We all do, sometimes. It is just natural. You probably have more support than you realize......

Its human nature...I believe even the happiest of people experience this...why millionares still commit sucide. Try attending a Bible believing church and ask a pastor to help you seek help.
