I haven't been here in months. I haven't reached out. I have been depressed, forgetful, lonely and keepmg my distance from everyone. I just cry a whole lot thinking of my grown kids not wanting to bother with me for no reason other than my depression. I miss my grandchildren and my heart hurts. I keep a smile inside and talk to my therapist but its hard, sooo hard.
sighing......

NobodysChild...
It's a hard time you are going through, for sure.
Posting here is perhaps your first step in reaching out...the PC community is full of caring and supportive people.
I hope you find the support you need.

Jme, but sometimes our loved ones don't know how to respond to us when we are going through one of our dark times.
Their feelings of helplessness may make them shy away from trying to be there for us.
I'm glad you have a good therapist...but are you seeing a pdoc for any medications? They can be of tremendous help in stabilizing our moods.

My best wishes for this to improve, I can imagine how painful it is for you.

Please keep posting and let us know how you are doing, ok?
We Care

Thank you for letting us know you are safe...
Oh yeah, those hard times can feel like a steamroller has done a job on me...most times I am able to tell myself that I can ride it out.
If there was a gold medal for Mood-Riders, I would be a top contender.

Please keep posting...we do care

In Peace
