I feel like nobody really cares about me, despite friends who try and explain that they care…but I can’t see it and there’s only one way out.
Its been some time since you posted, but let me reassure you - I am here, others are here, we all care !!
Its a deep song and so many of us relate to the suffering and how to handle preety dark moments I have been there… that lost of sense… its true, it can be very dark place, its hard to get moving, to find answer for questions of “why?” , to really feel that support, trust from others, from ourselves. It very difficult moment, but really valid showing our human nature. Our emotions despite being difficult are part of us and it is ok to feel bad and share them.
The moment we hear our friends saying they care, they want to help - it’s not always just such easy to trust them, to really feel that support I had my very close family saying the same, but despite that i had moment when these words really didn’t meant a lot, in some sort of self talk in my head " yea, right" it wasn’t working or doing any good at the beginning. I do feel you… these are very difficult moments to get through…
What is very important is that fantastic and critical element you described - your friends. It might be hard to get really their support or maybe sometimes they cant understand us, but it is so heart warming that they are there for you. Even if it does not work yet. They want to help, this or that way - but they are there for you same as we are here. Same as I am sending you my support and sharing really valid emotions with you 
It suck, yes - but there are people around willing to help, hear our, listen, maybe talk.
I sending you all my positive emotions, vibes, smiles, good thoughts about all the possibilities, solutions, ideas, reasons and love that you deserve as a part of our community, Metallica fan base and human being

Hey there,
First off I want to say thank you for being open with us here, we appreciate and don’t take it for granted.
Please know you are not alone in this. I have been there where I feel like no one cares. I remember one time when I was in school I had a meltdown, and I thought that my sister didn’t care… but I think the truth is she did not know how to help in that moment, as she was also a teenager. I think that some people just don’t know how to help, or what to say. I know how painful it can feel, it happens to me sometimes… I wonder why can’t people just understand? Why can’t they just meet me with kindness like I meet them? Humans are all so complex… everyone is going through something, I try to remind myself of that.
Something that has helped me is journaling; I still don’t feel all that comfortable speaking about my struggles and thoughts. With journaling I can at least notate what happened, how it made me feel, what it made me think, so then I can talk to someone I feel comfortable with about it later.
There are people who will listen, and people who care. I know this because I too have been there.
Please keep holding on, please know that we are always here to listen, to be a shoulder to lean on. There are people here for you.
I believe in you,
Lys
I care about you. And I know this sounds crazy because I’ve never met you but I love you. I’ve been where you are. I know what it means to say nobody cares about me. A number of years ago I was at the end of my rope and God directed me to an August Burns Red song called Cutting the Ties. As soon as I listened to it, I gained a new perspective. The lyric that changed me was ‘Compassion is a beautiful thing so show some for yourself.’ The whole song spoke to me like it was written to help save my life. And in many ways, it did. Another song that continues to help me is Promise to Live by Disciple. I’m here for you and I just want you to know that you are loved. Be good to yourself.
Hey there it’s been a while, but I know how you feel… because I struggle with the same, I’ve had a very tough time this year when my life fell apart, a tough break up, I was a homeless, and at times had car troubles and almost no money, sometimes I feel like all I have is myself to talk to and nobody is there for me, but I promise you that it’s not the case, there are people out there that love you and care for you deeply l, do not give up on yourself and don’t give up on them, they love you and they care about you… I’ll always be here if you need to talk, please stay strong and keep being yourself, don’t give up
hey friend,
i know it’s hard to believe right now, but you matter. you’re sitting in this storm, feeling unseen and unheard, but just by opening up here, you’re proving something there’s a part of you that still wants connection, still hopes for someone to hear you. and i do. i hear you, loud and clear. i am sending lots of love and encouragement your way! i also struggle with hearing my friends out, the genuine ones will stay and care for you.
you don’t have to have the answers right now. you don’t have to feel okay right now. you’re not your pain. you’re not your struggles. you’re so much more, even if you can’t see it yet. keep holding on, even if it’s just by a thread. you’re not done here, and your story isn’t over.
Hi there friend,
These feelings that you are feeling are real. That feeling of loneliness can be devastating. It really does suck. I don’t know you, but I think we have felt some of the same feelings for sure. I understand you. You are heard, and you are seen. Right now you are in the middle of a dark night. It can feel like there is no hope. I know that feeling. But just as the darkness seems inevitable on the coldest night, the sun will rise. These tough times will pass. The love that you deserve, you will feel. The sun will rise and it will get better. Please stay strong, and please stay with us. We are here for you. Heart Support is always here for you. We care. I care.

I get it. I think there’s something about the intro to this song. It’s definitely powerful and sort of beautiful. Maybe a lonely, dark place?
A year and a half ago, I felt sort of abandoned by some life long friends. It was rough and had to work through the resentment and disappointment. I felt like I had been there for them. Why weren’t they there for me? Thankfully though I had a few friends who were there. I guess I settled into the mantra of “Everybody lives very full lives”. That helped me drop the resentment. I’m sure my people care, they just don’t always realize I want to actually hear from them. Often times, I don’t want to bother letting know how much I’m hurting because I don’t want them to feel guilty or upset.
Sometimes we’re off in these lonely dark places. It’s almost too dark to see our friends and family that are around. Maybe we can’t find the right words to make it clear that we need the love or something? It’s one of the things I really love about songs like this. I’m reminded there’s lots of us out here.
Thanks so much for speaking up, friend. I know it’s rough. It might be hard to hear but we got you! You are not alone. You matter. You’re stronger than you realize. It’ll be light soon.
Take care,
Satty
