I spend them with my laptop and my tv (and the jaunt to Starbucks if I can get myself out of the house). Desperately trying to distract myself enough to keep the dark thoughts at bay. The dark thoughts that I can't go into right now because I'm trying to avoid them.

So here I sit hoping that I will receive some comfort and company from the forum and that I will feel up to giving some as well. I'm going to post this on another forum, too, just to cover my bases.

Loves, everyone.
Hi there,
weekends can be long without distractions. I don't know anything about your personality, likes or dislikes, but do you have or can you have a dog where you live? I know you would probably like someone special in your life, but dogs can bring a great deal of comfort as well as a diversion. They insist on getting you out when you don't want to, offer a neck or shoulder for tears and are more than happy to go for a walk with you. There is nothing like watching a pet enjoy themselves just by getting a chance to go with you.

I don't mean to minimize what you are feeling. I honestly don't know what I would do without my dog.

Know that there are people here who are willing to talk to you and do thier best to keep your weekends occupied. Do you have any hobbies that you enjoy?

If you don't want to think about the dark thoughts, you don't need to. No one here is goin to think any less of you for having them. I'm just glad that you are able to keep them out of the forfront of your mind.
