Now it feels like I don't have anywhere to go and I've lost contact with a lot of 'friends.'

The isolation is crippling and painful.

I'm sorry Rock. THAT sucks. No reply is the worse. I know how that feels.

We are still here.

I don't have anyone in real life except for one person. And during Covid lockdowns in 2020, I was cut off because I couldn't get online. I relied on the library for over 30 years and suddenly they were closed just like everything else. So I can kind of get it! This is the only forum I go to, and at that time I still had a lot of people to talk to here. Since then many have not come back or deleted their accounts altogether. So I know that feeling of isolation; I still recall it even 4 years later.
