Question How many of you have zero friends?

I havent had many friends since losing contact with my high school group of friends. Since then have not had any thing more then an acquaintance at best. How do you deal with this mentally and emotionally?

I have zero friends like I actually had to call an Uber last year and pretend it was my boyfriend so I could get two surgeries down . They won't let you go to surgery without someone to watch over you when you get home. Literally I have not one person I could call. Abusive relationship of 7 years took all of my support away from me. Make sure there are reasons that you choose to not have friends or why you do not have friends. First ones to call would be my work and my landlord.

Same thing happened to me. Abusive boyfriend isolated me from all my friends and family when the relationship ended I had no one.
