I think it can be really tough to find supportive relationships especially if you have moved around. Like Joanna says, it takes time for relationships to develop. I find that the older I get(I have also moved around)the more difficult it is to find someone you can really talk too. Most people have their own agendas,and just have not the strength to handle someones else's problems. Things now are very difficult for some people and they are having a hard time just managing their finances so its understandable that they cannot or will not get involved.

Thank God though there are therapists out there for us. The are also much more objective then friends or family would be anyway. This way we can share things we might also not want family or friends to know anyway.

Life is indeed tough and so are friendships and any relationships. We are blessed though that we have this website here. We can share 24/7 and find friends here, give advice, and get advice..so life is a little less tougher....

Take care gashly.......
