isolation from the world
Lately I've been feeling more and more isolated from the world. I usually talk to my friends about it, but lately I haven't been getting that feel good feeling I usually get when I talk about it. Also I am one of those people who have no contact with their family whatsoever. That really doesn't help with the problem either. I want to talk to my friends in person, but I can't, because I either don't have enough time to talk with them about it, or I can't even get to the person to ask them about it. Idk, can you help me on this?

Hey, I'm really sorry about how you're feeling lately--It sucks, I know. I especially understand the no talking to family, and can't promise I'll be too helpful if they're the ones you want to talk to. Friends however, I can relate to!
Have your friends been different? Maybe something's wrong with them? Try to ask them if they've been alright lately. Sometimes, talking to other people about something that's wrong really helps, too! Something may be keeping them from being completly dedicated to someone else's problem, and the more ya'll talk, the closer you'll be!
I understand why you'd want to talk to them in person, rather than over the phone or over AIM or something like that. In-depth things don't usually work in school, and even if it were during lunch or a studyhall, that's still very limited on certain aspects.
I'd reccomend trying to arrange a day you can just kind of.. chill. Nothing like going to the movies or mall or something where you HAVE to do a set thing.. Try going over someone's house. Depending on how many people you need to talk to, you could arrange something small or large (Though I'd reccomend a one on one thing, sleepover, maybe?). Try to be bold and say that things have seemed different lately, and that you really want to talk. Say your part, and let them say their part. It should be very relaxed, and especially if it's at a sleepover, you'll have time to do more upbeat things later.
Make sure you completly get everything off your chest, however you do this. There's nothing worse than trying to talk over a problem and then having left over feelings after the fact. Completion is key, so if you don't feel that the conversation is complete, don't let it be! Your friends won't get mad at you for wanting to resolve a problem (and it's better to get everything done at once, rather than spread out with time for more problems to arise).
Best of luck, and let me know how things go or if you need absolutely anything else!
XOXO
KAT.
