I don't know where to begin. Its in my thoughts. Its in my feelings. I wish I had a job. But I have no energy to look, plus I haven't worked in years and don't know how to start. I don't feel very connected to anyone. I do have friends but they aren't close friends. I live alone. Please don't recommend pets.

I got the vaccine yesterday so maybe it affected my mood. My therapist left the practice and now I'm seeing someone I don't prefer. I'm just tired. I'm overwhelmed. I'm sad. I want connection. I want ppl to care.

Thanks.

Today I went to the thrift store with my Mom. I found a ton of good books - ten. So if all else fails, I will lose myself in a good book.

Una, yes I do think this is probably pandemic related too. Sorry you're struggling too. I guess a lot if us are. That doesn't diminish the pain anyone feels. But yeah no more spaghetti!

I also discovered the Headspace episodes on Netflix. They're good. Someone here mentioned them, actually, and so I wanted to check them out.

I *am* signed up for a few classes - one in spring, one in summer. Which could eventually lead to a job If I keep taking classes or get a degree. I'm also looking into small PT jobs that are low stress, with alternative ways of finding support.

I think small PT jobs are a great idea, they'll give you an opportunity to build your confidence and skills. It can really knock ones confidence being out of the work place for a while.

I consider you a friend! I bet lots of people do too - but this last year has left so many of us feeling disconnected.

i agree with the other wise and wonderful posters. So Sorry that you're feeling like this! This pandemic is likely making things hard. Not sure how much it helps to know this but know that i am available if you need to talk and Hopefully others as well if you just ask. Please do not give up. Sending many Safe, warm hugs to BOTH you, @WovenGalaxy, your Family, your Friends and ALL of your Loved Ones! Keep fighting and keep rocking NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS, OK?!

I’m definitely dealing with some pandemic fatigue as well, my area has a very high rate of vaccination among the most vulnerable groups so I’m thinking of venturing out again. But I don’t know maybe I shouldn’t. Anyway I am glad you found some good books at the thrift store, I love books as well. I’m gonna go spend a bookstore gift card I got.
