I was living alone in the house I raised my son with my partner at the time. We made a go at having a normal life but then my illness reared it's head and eventually I also split with that partner. My son went away to uni and I got used to being on my own again. I have very few friends so it is really alone. He came back for 9 months after graduating, found a job and is now getting ready to move into a flat with a friend. So I will be back to living alone and having nothing to really structure my day.
