Every person in their lifetime, no matter the gender or race, goes through a period of time, whether it be a transitioning period of schools, jobs, loss, etc. where they just feel completely lost. I just wanted to let you know, you are not alone.
Feeling lost is not only a terrible feeling, but it ties in hand and hand with feeling lonely. Feeling lost makes you question if you fit in with your friends, are you making your family happy, are you living up to the expectations that have been presented to you? These are all questions that cross the mind of a man or woman who doesn’t know where to turn.
It isn’t uncommon that when you feel this way, you shut down totally. Believe me, many people do.
One main reason people feel lost or lonely is because they themselves cannot find their purpose in life. I have noticed that recently, even speaking to my friends and family what we forget our self-worth and we forget what we are on earth to do. Everyone has a purpose and everyone has a reason to live here. No one is just a waste of space.
The feeling of having no purpose in life is one that can ruin your life though if there is nobody to talk you out of it. Feeling lost or lonely will make you want to rip your hair out. You feel alone or isolated, worthless, scared, and sometimes as if the whole world is coming to an end. There are some things that you always have to remember when you begin to feel this way.
- You have more control over this feeling than you think.
- Many people don’t like to hear this line, but when it comes to this, most of it is in your head. Whenever you feel like yours lost it is very hard to try to be optimistic about things. What we fail to realize in times like this is that being optimistic about life is what is actually going to help us find ourselves.
- Everything happens for a reason.
- Everything that occurs in your life is for a reason. If you feel like this is a step back for you, it probably means many amazing things are coming your way.
- It's okay that you feel like this, everyone does.
- To feel like you are alone and you’re crawling out of your own skin is a very common feeling people will say they have experienced. You are not weird, strange, or over dramatic, you are normal. It is okay to feel as though nobody understands, but it is your job to get yourself on track and realize your self-worth and how strong of a person you are.
