Hi, I can so totally relate! For me it's more forced into isolation. I lived in the boonies, quite literally the corn fields for 13 years. I had no neighbors so no contact there. I went to church to sporadically that I didn't make any friends. Between the Lupus and the bi polar I never knew how I was going to feel from day to day so getting a job was pointless, believe I tried. Isolation for me brings on so many negative behaviors. And my thoughts race taking me places I don't want to go. Believe me I relate!
