        I'm lonely but my anxiety issues stop me doing this or joining groups. Loneliness is as bad as any physical or mental health problem.

        Do you post with #JoinIn247? It's sort of company, people take an interest.

        I talk to strangers all the time. They are usually much more friendly than my so called friends.

        People used to talk to strangers, but now people are more interested in messing about with their phones rather than having a face to face conversation with someone I'm sure they use their phones as a barrier so people don't engage with them

        If you ever felt real loneliness once in your life, you know you would talk to anybody, really.
