I spend most days stuck in this room with no daylight and no one to talk to.

If that is not lonely enough, I also live with my Mother (whom I despise), and (as I've mentioned in other threads) is retired now. That means she is here all day every day too, and that means even getting a simple cup of coffee a major challenge as I have to prepare myself to encounter her. The loneliness is just barely tolerable when she is not here, but being stuck with someone I don't like just emphasises the loneliness.

I don't go out much any more as I always dread coming home.

I've had a whopping 2 social occasions this month. On Saturday I bumped into a couple of people I know, and I went to a monthly politics group a couple of weeks ago.

I'm sorry you're going through that. Although to be honest, and not to minimize your loneliness, but two social occasions a month is not too bad.

Still, I can feel how hard it is on you.

Well, its half way through January 2025. I think I've had two days where I've spoken to other people since the start of December.

Yeah that's sucks man

It is sheer hell to have to live with a person you despise and having to confine yourself to a small area to avoid them

Try and find some other outlet for yourself if you can and be kind to yourself
