Not that many on here know me anymore probably, but I'm back. Not sure why I stopped coming except maybe I was just trying to get through day to day and I slipped.
If you want to know my background, I'll post my links in the next post.
Since I was last on here, I lost my job, had major surgery, and have been watching the deterioration of even the friendship between H and myself. I don't know what to say, do, and am always exhausted.
I'm also lonely and confused. My counselor says I should journal and that if maybe I committed to coming back on here, I could let some stuff out. It's just...I don't want to be doom and gloom. But I am inside and I can't do it much longer.

Welcome back. I wish it was under better circumstances.
You sound like you may be depressed. Does your if think so?
What can't you do much longer? What are you going to do to end it?
Best wishes. How is your son doing?

Hi Roist, Darnes, Cherry, and It. I am depressed, and I haven't been GALing because of my job situation. When I'm with my s, he helps to sweep it away, but I'm very tired and frustrated about movement restrictions due to surgery. That's probably added to my mood quite a bit.
I am isolating myself and I shouldn't. So I'm back on here to talk and ask advice and help others if I may.
I'm so sorry, Cherry that your sitch is worse.

Sorry to hear that you're in a bad way. Maybe coming back to the group is a good idea. Lots of lovely people that know and share that pain and helping each other

Hi Elly, I'm sorry you find yourself back here, but you know this is a great (and safe) space to vent your frustrations and look at things through a new lens. I'm sorry you are feeling down. Remember to start small- journaling is good, yes.... But also take the time to truly think about what you are grateful for each day. It may be hard and it's not an overnight remedy but it works. It does!
