I just recently moved to my favorite place in the world, but I am having trouble finding work, because of anxiety, and the climate is completely different here from where I use to live. The winters are very cold and will take some getting use to. I caught a cold the first cold spell we had. I was hoping to get some job training in the mental health field through the state, but I didn't qualify for funding. Then the state mental health clinic which I was getting counseling through had to turn me away too because of that. I could only talk with a peer support person, which is what I wanted to become. I really hit it off with her, but since I seem to always be attracted to the wrong person, I now find myself depressed about the feelings I have for her. Not only is she way to young for me, she is married with 3 kids and almost divorced because he was physically abusive, but he was diagnosed as bipolar so she has decided to give him another chance. I think she has thrown me off track from the excitement and confidence I had when I first got here. Plus, it's harder to talk with her now cause so much of my problem now is the feelings I have for her. And with it getting so cold, I have been isolating myself more and more. Could sure use some hugs....

I'm sorry for the way you are feeling.

The weather and winter play havoc with my mood, I always seem to get depressed at that time of year. I try keep contact with my treating mental health professionals in order to adjust meds. I'm so sorry with what has happened with your clinic. You really do need the support.

I'm also sorry to hear about your relationship issues. What happened isn't fair on you and you were played for a fool. It's understandable you're upset.

I never did it, but I've been meaning to try one of those "light box therapy" gizmos. I remember once being in Finland in the winter and being really affected by no sunshine at all.
Thanks for this!
