I made it thru Christmas.. My son is moving out this week Friday, he's 22 and moved out before - it's a good thing really - shows growth on his part.. signed on last night and my best friend and her husband left for FL - spur of the moment I guess - they were going to wait for this weekend.
Yousa... am I feeling it....started with a new T last week and will see him today. When I started filling out all the forms for him this morn. I realized what a train wreck I am. That I have absolutely nothing that I can offer anyone. That my life is so limited by my physical and emotional problems that I virtually am housebound - not really how I thought I would be at this time in my life. Can a person die of sheer loniness? And if I did die, would anyone notice? Noone would miss me out of their lives. My son would simply have his inheritance early...My lawyer would take of my remains, it is in my contract with him. How long would I be dead in my house before anyone even knew? |

Well I have been pretty lonely and haven't died. Your son (is young) loves you and would be hurt terribly if anything happened to you. don't do the Jimmy Stuart role in wonderful life.
you have to force yourself to think and focus on other things. Things you used to enjoy or still enjoy. Myself I enjoy nature and once a day I try to go and enjoy some of Gods work.Some days I can't feel it but not everyday will be the best eh? Like if everyday was good how could you judge a bad day?

Hi Free Will,
I'm sorry depression has burst in on you for an after-Christmas visit. We don't know our value to other people. Only God knows, and that's why He is in charge of when people are born and die. Just b/c your son is moving out doesn't mean he doesn't love or need you anymore. My brother left home for college when I was five. After that we never lived near each other, but I always knew I could call on him if I needed to. We're here for you. Feel free to PM if you like. Hugs, EJ |

I noticed with time that depression is like a living thing, and it tries to protect itself. I mean, maybe your efforts with this new therapist may be really important, and this burst of depression is the reaction. It's a good hint to insist.
The best of luck |

Alot of new things and not necessarily good things are happening or happened very fast for you. Perhaps, too fast for you to adjust yet.
Take time and get to know yourself. You might be surprised. Good luck, Linda
