Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 27 years old. I live with my parents, but I feel very lonely. My long time school friend introduced me to his childhood friend and we have been talking for the past two to three months through mobile. I like talking to him and wait for his test messages eagerly. I have started liking him. I shared my feelings with him at numerous times, but he does not take me seriously. I feel like crying and shouting. I have not slept for a week and still not feeling sleepy. Please help me.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

You have involved yourself emotionally in this relationship and have gone a step further by getting serious about it. First of all, you should know the wavelength of the person with whom we like. Without knowing what he is interested in, do not jump into conclusions. Probably, he thinks of you as a good friend. Accept his feelings and give respect to his friendship. You cannot force an individual to fall in love. It should happen on its own. Do not get disappointed over it. Continue your friendship with him and go ahead in life. After all, life is much more than all these.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
