Does anyone know what I mean? I'm not talking about the tv series! It's a serious question. Genuine replies only please.

Have you tried getting a sat nav?laugh

But seriously, I think you are talking about not knowing what you want or which direction you want your life to go, and more importantly how to go about changing your situation?

You are in charge of your life.

If you don't like some things, change them. It is very well manageable if you are single and have no kids.

If you're not happy with yourself, it's very hard to find someone good to be happy with you.

Get a purpose, friends and don't sit at home alone thinking too much.

Write down a list of realistic things you want to do/get.

Then set about creating a plan to achieve each goal.

Yes. I've felt like that for a few years, and can't change it, even though I've looked for advice etc.

Ah you know something everyone can feel like that at times sometimes a little lost in themselves,

You say you are happy within yourself normally ,then it could be just a case of goals you would like to set for yourself as Molly suggested and look into it that they are obtainable,

I don't know your mindset ,maybe you are in a rut and a change would do you good,set about small changes,,new hobby,new course,new hair style,
Change the furniture around ,go to a different supermarket,treat yourself to something,

Are you thinking of love as with a man,, think simple first ,when you are relaxed and at ease then you will attract same,

Think positive ,and be kind to yourself,never compare yourself to others because we are all unique,

Sometimes people can feel lost because they think they are so different to others and alot of the time it can be because of low self esteem and lack of confidence,dosnt matter how pretty or intelligent a person is that self doubt about oneself is still lurking in their head and sometimes it can be a very lonely feeling because one can feel they are on the outside looking in and maybe feel distanced from people,


Try and talk to a councillor as to get to the root of it and remember lots of people feel this way you are not alone.

In response to: Does anyone know what I mean? I'm not talking about the tv series! It's a serious question. Genuine replies only please.





Another thing I wanted to say is sometimes very creative people can feel a little lost and feel people don't understand them as they may have deep thoughts about things ,they may be introverted and not have the opportunity to talk to people who understand them on their wave length,.

Communication and being able to express yourself is important for your well being,.

All best to you and your great that you even posted on here it's a start,.

A suggestion is - start to question things a bit more,yourself and life,explore life/hobbies/philosophy/careers/whatever appears to make sense to you.Sometimes parts of our lives fall into place in their own timing beyond our control,if that makes sense so go easy on yourself,its quite ok to feel the way you are.

You've had the courage to look for advice publicly,therefore you have the courage to go the distance and will find what it is you seekhandshake

Learn to trust your own gut instinct in searching/exploring and remember sometimes things we find that can make sense to us may only be temporary stepping stones leading us to something better.
Dont fear change,it is natural and normal part of the process of life.
Be gentle with yourself,taking things at your own pace and doing what feels right for you till you have achieved a bit more clarity on your life and yourself hug

hope this is of usehandshake wave

You are like the lady who went to the doctor & said, "Doctor, one minute I feel like a wigwam & the next minute I feel like a tepee! Why is that?"
Doctor replies, "You are too tense"! (Two tents!)
Your profile may reflect how you feel but is way too intense. If that reflects you then you need to chill, big time.

With all due respect & perhaps you may think the world revolves around you & your incessant blabbing, my comments were aimed at the lady who initiated this particular forum.

The smarts on here have made it into words...
Sense of purpose, do stuff, dont wonder, 'what if'....
When i was young, i had a 'woe is me' outlook on life, thinking 'nobody is interested in me', and they weren't, cos i was the problem with my own unremitting negativity....Im not giving out to you, but, nobody else can find you if you cant find yourself....
Take everything good about yourself and absolutely 'milk the hell out of it', if it worked for me, id nearly say it can work for you.... Good Luck...
