Let’s grab another coffee and have a chat about stuff that really matters. Let’s chat about loneliness and why I – of all people – am so passionate about de-stigmatising it for gay men.
I REALLY didn’t want to be lonely. In fact, I went through all my usual tricks to keep denying and numbing those awful thoughts and feelings and to fill the void that was within me. The usual tricks stopped working. I had no choice but to speak up, ask for help and receive the help given.
It was hard, but it was the best thing I’ve ever done.
The stigma of loneliness stops us from speaking openly about something that every single human experiences. It stops us getting the connection we really need in our lives. This ends here.
Let’s have a coffee.
