No it is not abnormal to feel sad, I do most of the time due to lack of family. You can have friends, but it is not the same as having close family. I understand. You are in my prayers.

I am sad, lonely, and troubled by what is going on in our world.

Sometimes friends are better than family.

I have friends and family, but some days I just feel lonely and sad. I know I'm not, but I still feel it. Tomorrow or the next day will be better ... I hope. There are days that just "hit you". It's my normal and may be yours. Just hang in there and wait for that good day. They do come.

Don't pay attention to the mean replies you get, i think they just have no real idea what you are feeling, i understand.

I have been "alone" for 45+ years, but I'm an introvert and wouldn't want to be around others all the time. That said, there are times I feel lonely but not all that many times, or for all that long. I'm largely content in my own company. The feeling passes. It doesn't devastate or incapacitate me, I just might feel slightly down for a couple of hours, then I get out of the house. Even a trip to the grocery or drug store is getting out of being alone.

OP......sorry you are feeling sad today. Know the feeling, have been there, done that. Now, I am so content in my apartment, because I love it here. I have my little furry cat, Mr. Lucky.....he is such good company, and a lot of fun. Darling personality.

I am pretty much home bound because of having cancer and in the 2nd year of chemo treatments. I tire out very easily and that keeps me here a lot of the time. Have my friends, good neighbors, and the TV.....Also have games on my computer, which I love to play.

My eyes don't let me do some of the handy work I like to do, but if I can't do it, there is nothing I can change with that. The chemo has really affected my vision, and there are some days where everything is a big blur.....

Don't know your age, but life is too short to be sad a good amount of the time.

Here's hoping you can find something you can enjoy doing. That would help you a lot. I'm not one that likes to tell people what to do in situations such as yours.

No, I'm not sad, today, but, yes, I have my days and I feel for you.

@Krimpette. Regarding the Saturday sadness- I wonder if it's just a throwback to the not-having-a-date-on-Saturday thing? Thinking everyone else is out having a good time while you're not. (Which isn't necessarily the truth) Kind of drummed into your subconscious. Some things become ingrained- for better or worse.

There's a difference between, finally, having time to yourself and savoring it and true loneliness.

Most people need real connections with others- in person.

I'm sad today too, we had to put our pug to sleep last night. My husband did take me out to lunch and it was a somewhat enjoyable short term diversion. I spent the rest of this afternoon with a headache and watching tv.

I can understand how you feel as I've lived alone for many years, but I have always had a pet. Have you considered adopting a dog or cat from a rescue or shelter? Just looking at my dog and cat makes me smile. Sometimes I make myself get out of the house by taking my dog to the park. Some sunshine and fresh air always make me feel better. Take care.
