Brentus I’m sorry you’re struggling with loneliness. It’s really difficult and gets magnified during the holidays

have you thought of maybe trying to meet up with people with similar hobbies if you have any? For example I like to read so maybe a book club. Or I also like doing art so there’s sometimes some free arts/crafts things for adults at the local library. Libraries tend to have a lot of free social events for adults so definitely look into it. You never know, could end up making a friend or at the very least it could ease some of the loneliness. Sometimes I find just being out at a community event helps my loneliness some even though I really don’t have many friends at all. Basically none that live close to me.
MD, I’m glad you’re feeling better!
Blueberry, congrats on 1 year!
Nammu, glad you slept well hope you can get the refund for the cheese and get some new ones
