Thanks for this, it warmed my heart to read.

I hear you´ve struggled and struggles as well and I´m glad you found a way to a better life. It sounds nice having pets and to see the meaning in life by caring for them.

I feel a lot of my motivation was lost when I faced a lot of hardships and even if I really tried finding healthcare and psychotherapy, that wasn't possible. I think everyone needs someone for support and I´ve seen a large amount of different people both within health care and within the employment agency but noone could really help me.

I do little things in my everyday life but all those important things in or aspects of life is missing. I wouldn´t date someone like me who don´t have any money and no job and by that I´m stuck in my loneliness. As I´ve never had a romantic relationship, that would also be seen as odd by many people even if I tried to find a new friend or a partner.

Sending you hugs and love back!

This is why I won't downplay what you're feeling as "normal". I empathize with you. The situation you are in is nowhere ideal and I can only hope for things to become better on your end.

We're all strangers on this forum fighting our own individual battles–this is cliche but know you're not alone.

I was in a somewhat similar state you are in and what really helped me was finding something to live for aka my pets. I go to work and earn money to feed them. I pay the rent so that they can live in a comfortable space. I go through daily panic attacks and social anxiety to come home to them alive and healthy.

You can start small. Get a plant, talk to the plant, and share your thoughts with the plant. I could never commit to it–but for some people, journals really help.

I wish you well Sarah. Lots of hugs and love.
