lots of things

There has been so much happening and I can't get my head around it. I just had an operation and I still feel like crap. A close friend is dying they say it will be soon probably just a few weeks. I can't handle it all. I don't know what to do.

Hello sunbeam: Having undergone a few surgeries in the past myself, I have some idea of how you're probably feeling. This is such a difficult time to also be facing the loss of a close friend. Hopefully you have others in your life you can reach out to for support.

Will there be an opportunity to spend time with your friend? If not, sending a heartfelt note or card might be of some comfort. Perhaps continuing to post here on PC can help too. Sometimes simply writing about how you feel can be of some comfort... hope you begin feeling better soon.

[QUOTE=sunbeem;5229195]He is not cognitive now. He went in for a heart operation and now his kidneys have not been working. He doesn't know anyone even his wife or me. He is going to be on hospice but as I said he won't be around much longer. I have known him for 50 years and that is a long time. My son is coming home this weekend to go over to see him they have a special relationship. I will be glad to see my son I don't get to see him much he lives quite a bit away now. I know I will survive it just doesn't seem like I will right nowcalled my therapist and made an appointment, but I called back in about an hour and cancelled it. Don't know why I did that. Depression is so bad it's hard to move.

Hi sunbeem I hope you can reschedule your therapist. You have a lot of stressors going on and I think some help would be, um, helpful

This would be a lot for anyone to handle but when we have mental health issues we have to be extra vigilant that we don't get sucked down. Hopefully your therapist can help you keep your balance.
