Giant Claw aka Keith Rankin is a musician and visual artist from Columbus, Ohio. He states:

"I'm so lonely. Heart achingly lonely. I dumped my ex boyfriend a little over a month ago. It was one of those things that just needed to happen and I know I'm not going to get back with him. I was doing pretty well with my emotions until I learned that my parents have separated and I'm sure eventually going to get a divorce. This has completely rocked my world and turned everything upside down. I can't talk to anyone about it because I was sworn to secrecy by my folks. This leaves a huge weight on my shoulders that is starting to break me. I have never been so lonely in my entire life. Worse, I have bad social anxiety so going out on the town is out of the question. I just sit at home and try to distract myself but I'm so lonely I can't stand it. I've recently been thinking of contacting my ex but I know that would be a terrible idea that would just lead to more heartache. I don't know what to do with all of this loneliness. And no I can't talk to my parents about how I feel because they are dealing with enough as it is. Can anyone give me some advice? I'm desperate to feel better."
