He eventually spilled the beans and told me she had suggested I needed to be hospitalized to him and made him promise not to tell me her thoughts. It was all because I disagreed with her about something related to the estate of my father. She had sworn him to secrecy. And she did not raise any objections with me... it was all through my son.
Just before my father died, my best friend at the time dumped me on an outing we had together when she got a phone call to go be with another friend that day. After that I haven't seen or talked to her again.
I've also stopped going to my Emotions Anonymous meetings and my self care has slipped.
I've had very negative thoughts about almost everything, so I am hoping the Wellbutrin will help me reach a better state. Even if I am lonely there is no reason to make myself sad and upset and worried.
I am isolating at home too.

Hi tecomsin,
Sounds like things are feeling bleak?
These "negative" life experiences can certainly trigger more depression. I am so sorry you've had so much and such intense stress.
I hope the Wellbutrin helps you to get back on your feet.
Please forgive me, I have forgotten if you see a therapist?
My pdoc is my therapist. I find the supportive aspect of therapy a life-saver right now. Do you have any support IRL?
I hope the Wellbutrin assists you quickly and without side-effects, my friend!
I am glad you are reaching out. I have found PC members quite generous in lending support.
Love and Prayers~
