Hello,I no longer live in New Jersey, but spent a great portion of my life growing up there in places like Marlton, Edison, Medford. Mostly in South Jersey though. I have often thought of the same thing you have as I have some health issues and as a result my days are spent in my small one bedroom apartment. I have absolutely no friends, not even one, and have found that the pain of loneliness is far greater than anything I have ever suffered. I find myself in tears a lot of the time, but with no one to call or talk to I feel like I'm just marking off the days until I die which I hope comes soon. Living in a world void of any happiness or human contact has kept me on the edge of taking my own life for a very long time. I cannot see the sense of continuing on when my every day is spent in pain, physical and mental. I'm not living just existing now. I wish I could have gotten to know you.
