I've felt up and down all day. The gym feels so good and safe. When I return to "home" I feel I have to be so guarded and like everyone is resentful of me going to the gym. I do get snide comments from Dad and my sister. Once the truck parts are in, I'm fixing it and rolling out. For where, I don't care, as long as there's a gym.
It doesn't help that I feel so lonely. My heart hurts more with every breath and I almost want to call my ex, but I know at the same time how terrible an idea that would be. I really just want to be held. Why aren't there safe places where strangers could just cuddle, then leave with no emotional attachment? That's all I honestly want, to be held, with no emotional attachment. I'd almost pay a hooker for it, probably would if I could afford to.

I don't see it happening any time soon. I'm not in a relationship and definitely Don't mentally qualify. If I'm not stable, how could a relationship with me ever be? Nobody wants a nearly bald 40-something divorcee with emotional issues, trust issues, and who's never had a healthy relationship with anyone in any capacity. Nobody wants that unless they are going to abuse the situation. Nobody.

There are actually people who hug professionally(!) Just hugging, no funny business. I don't know if that's something available in your area, but it might be worth checking into.

I used to hug random strangers, but recently I just feel weird asking for it.
I will go to the pet store tomorrow! Thank you

I'm losing it. Officially losing it. I just looked in the mirror and said "go kill yourself."
I felt horror at that. I feel horrified that I'd think it or say it.
I need to get a grip on reality, but I'm not finding it right now. I'm dizzy, nauseated, my head is pounding, my heart is going so fast my tracker can't measure. It says E-1, meaning it's above 350. Vision is blurry.
I haven't done anything destructive other than have that horrible thought, but I felt physically BAD before, but not for long.
I don't like this

Kudos to you for going to the gym. That's a big deal. I'm sorry you're having a tough time. If I was there I'd give you a big hug. It seems like many of the problems facing us could be solved that way. I hope you feel better soon. Sending big hugs.
