I used to be so happy and confident and hopeful for the future.......now I just feel old and tired and isolated from everything and everyone.........
Someone stole my joy, and I want it back! : (

yup, know just what you mean... been about six years now and I feel like I'm just getting ready to get back on my feet after that last girlfriend. I had such plans for the future, too... the real killer is that I can never have those years back. what will I do now?
mistaken relationships are the worst thing ever. If something can heal, it can inflict.
I guess the lesson is to listen to that little voice. the problem is the urge to be with SOMEONE can be so strong that it drowns it out... or we don't want to listen. but as bad as being alone is, it's not as bad as being with the wrong person
I thought life would be nice to me, once... I guess we all learn. But I'm tired too. I wonder if it will ever change again?

Yes and yes. Oh so many times.
What you have to realize is that you are in control, and your joy can be restored only by you. Circumstances may cause you to feel like you do, but the only one who has control of your joy is you!
Don't isolate yourself too much. It's OK to be in a bad mood, but try not to let it take control. Call a friend, buy some new shoes, or if you want to be alone put on some music. Watch your favorite movie.

I've been there. I am now on the way back up. It took a long time to get as far as I am now. I know exactly how you feel. One day I just decided I had had enough. I wasn't going to let anyone treat me that way any more. Was quite a surprise for the jerk I was married to. I took back my life, started seeing my family, made new friends and of course, got rid of my problem.
Everyone has their own breaking point when they feel they have finally had enough. Even you will get to that and want to start having your life back and will fight for it.
I wish you all the best and hope you do what needs to be done, soon and start living again.

My ex told me she was ashamed to hold my hand in public. that really never stopped hurting. I'm so you feel the way you do, a good person such as yourself should have the world treating you with all the repsect you deserve, I hope that someday someone special comes along and makes your soul so full of joy.

Call Tony Soprano.....
He'll get your "joy" back and you'll also get a couple of polaroids, maybe some hair and teeth samples from the person that made you sad to commemorate.

One of the rules of life that should be followed closer is to surround yourself by positive people. Every one out there needs positive reinforcement. Most don't even realize it. If you cant fined those people, than keep your dreams and idea's to yourself.
I would suggest finding new positive people, don't give yourself the chance to tear yourself down and be positive about life.

I want you to have it back sweetie. You are NOT old. You are tired because you've just had so much to deal with. You are the happiest most confident person I know. It breaks my heart to know you are feeling this way.

Yes.. When my ex-fiancee told me she no longer wanted to marry me... I was crushed and felt worthless.. It still hurts a little, just something I try not to think about.. Took me a long time to get over it and I can't say even years after it has happened I am still not completely over it.. Love does not always feel good....
