I can relate to your sentence about wanting to cut off your hair! I went through a really bad spell when everything fell apart, and I went to my stylist and told her to shave my head. But she said we would just cut it really short, which was a bold thing for me.

I am so sorry you are going through all this. Is it possible your friends are more willing to help than you know and just don't know you are suffering?

Quite a few people stepped into help me during my bad spell, and I was able to sleep in one person's place for a few weeks, then another's. Even people who were near strangers. It gave me a different outlook on how good people really can be.

I sat in an apartment in New Orleans for nearly six months, and the people then on Psych Central loved me well. Or at least better enough to start to move on.

Please keep sharing here. I have a lot of faith in the good you can experience in this community.

I've been away for a while, and I'm back because I am having another bad spell.
