Alone

I'm usually pretty good at being by myself. I tend to prefer it, even, and I can function quite well.  But lately, being alone has been miserable for me. I haven't felt this alone in a long time, and, stupid as it sounds, like there's no one I can talk to. I know that's not true, but it's hard for me. I'm not good at being vulnerable, or asking for help, or just asking someone if we can talk. I can't write about everything that has been going on in my life here, and I know I can't talk about it with just anyone. The positive is, though, it's good to identify something about ourselves to work on; I think I've found my area for self improvement.
