“I can do all this through him who gives me strength” Philippians 4:13
By continuously using language like the statements below, you can actually create your own world of isolation, receiving the exact opposite response than you want. These self-defeating “I” statements focus selfishly on self-protection. They are wall building instead of bridge building, keeping you stuck in a state of loneliness.

-
“I feel all alone.”
-
“I don’t believe anyone understands the way I feel.”
-

-
“I don’t have anything to offer to a relationship.”
-
“I can’t seem to connect with other people.”
-
“I will never find anyone to love me.”
-
“I don’t feel like I fit in with anyone.”
-
“I’m tired of trying to make people like me. I always fail.”
-
“I’m empty on the inside.”

-
“I’m too messed up for anyone to like me or want to be around me.”

-
“I feel like I’ve been deserted.”
-
“I don’t deserve to be loved or to have friends.”

“My relatives have gone away; my closest friends have forgotten me.”
(Job 19:14)
