I'm alone all of the time except 2 days a week when my worker comes.
And 3 weeks every other 5 weeks when my husband comes home.
I do feel less stress when I'm alone. But maybe a little more down. No one to talk to.

Do you have a car? Can you go places? Can you call a good friend on the phone? Are there any nearby friends who could go to coffee with?

In Costa Rica I don't drive. No friends nearby.
So I stay on the ranch all of the time.
But even when I'm in CA I don't leave often. Once per month to grocery store. Pdoc and dental appointments.
6 months ago I went to see big waves at HB. Helped a friend with some legal matters. Went for pizza.
This time in CA my husband said he doesn't trust my bipolar friend from group. I even missed my support group meetings as husband didn't want the others know I was in town.
So I was even alone all of Sept. It's hard compromising with husband.
This time he said no foster kitten.
Tough. I took her in anyway. He said she couldn't come in house. Had to stay in cage.
Too bad. I let her stay in my room with me since her surgery. He's not here anyway.
He loves to be alone. Before marriage I was very outgoing and social and happier.
