Hey people! This is just a copy of a topic I've posted on the Star Trek Online forums, I just thought I'd put it here as well.
As I am sure all of you are aware the holidays are quickly approaching as we are in December already, however this is sadly quite a lonely time for many of us. I do not really celebrate Christmas or anything like that, I don't have a lot of family.. There are some problems, so I'm mostly alone around the holidays myself as well, since everyone else are busy with their family and so forth.
I don't have a ton of friends in real life, most of them are actually online friends since I spend most of my time working.. Anyway, my point is that anyone feeling lonely or stuff around the holidays, or anytime in general can just message me if you'd like to talk about anything.
We can talk about anything, I'm always up for making new friends. We can also play togheter, team up and have fun.. Combat the Borg or enjoy Q's Winter Wonderland, how about some Klingon Ice Fishing? Qapla'!
It went quite well last year, though I feel the need to state that I am not a professional psychiatrist. I mean, sure we can talk about anything and I'd love to make new friends, but if you feel the need for help with serious issues there is no shame in getting help from a professional.

As someone who is constantly feeling lonely/isolated for mental health reasons, this is freakin' awesome of you to do for people!
I added you on steam because you can never have enough people to play/talk to =)

I feel that when I was feeling lonely a couple of years ago, it ultimately drove me into depression.
My gamer attitude (introvert + staying home) didn't help much either as I've never made actual friendships in any online communities I've been a part of, combined with university pressure and ultimately when I was at a point struggling securing permanent job - bascially unleashed a jar of pickles I don't wanna get into again.
I essentially changed all that to what I am today. I'm a private person in general and don't talk much about myself around here, but I highly suggest someone going through this to reach out. I feel this community has great people always up for a chat.

SnowWolf, thank you for putting yourself out there as someone for members to talk with. Personally, every year but one over the last 16 years I’ve been away from home(including this one) when the holiday time is upon us. I have always been thankful for individuals like yourself who are willing to reach out to others.
