A feeling of chronic emptiness and loneliness. Abandonment of ourselves, and not listening to our own hopes and desires.
You might abandon yourself unintentionally or unknowingly because you’re striving for perfection or others’ approval. You might stop caring for yourself while focusing on other things you think are paramount to you. Abandoning ourselves can spark anxiety, depression, guilt and shame.
You may displace the feeling of sadness with emptiness. This kind of empty feeling comes with not caring about much, not being interested in things, not feeling fueled by anything in particular.
If this emptiness is because of a loved one’s passing, don’t get angry with yourself for grieving years later. Because it is agonizing to lose a loved one, and though the loss changes shape over time, it never becomes OKAY that the person died… In that case you learn to live life alongside that hole of missing that person.
Sometimes, the hole forms because you missed out on love while you were growing up. This doesn’t mean you didn’t have a loving family. There are just certain kinds of love .

That one moment when you actually just need to be alone cus you feel like you hurt people the feeling you get when you care alot bout others than yourself and then tend to stay indoors away from everyone and battling with the demons on your own... not me but i had a friend who just felt really bad existing and cant kill himself cus his parents would be sad so he always wished that he can isolate himself that ppl no more would have to deal with him and listen to his shit or talk to him... the very thing he wished for was that he wouldve been happy if ppl would have just forgotten him... and to this day with his wishes not coming to a pass he cuts his wrists thin and deep and let the blood drop off of his fingers...
Mind;- Self isolation would work alot better since you wont have to care what ppl would think and at some point ppl would have moved on with the fact that you are dead...
