Re: Dark Skies

I'm always on my own @Wanderer, I have no friends that ever visit, or phone to see how I am. Or if I need help, or invite me any where, & I am not exaggerating. It's been like this for 8 years, since I became unwell with Chronic pain. My best friend died, before the pain got to the point that I needed urgent, life saving surgery, I still miss Denise every day. My other close friend, became Diabetic & could not handle my pain, so she just pushed me out of her life, just like that!
I am finding it so difficult to have any social life like I am, & I know that I would really appreciate, at least one loving friend in my life to share time with.
Love & Hugs!

Re: Dark Skies

It must be very hard @Wanderer I'm happy for you that your daughter will be there when you move. Will pets come too? My dogs are good value, and I have my kids with me but it's not the same as company at your own age and stage. I don't really know how to reach out and connect with people. When I was young it just sort of happened. I've been a bit more positive irl after finding the forum. Wishing you a good night sleep,

Re: Dark Skies

@Wanderer I’m glad you’re on the forum however things are for you, and I’m sure I’m not alone in that! I like ‘seeing’ you around. I like the sound of your very big and very little dogs 😊

Re: Dark Skies

Hi @Wanderer .....

Do t worry about the giving and taking bit .... just b ing here is important, and part of what you may be giving without realising it, is courage to someone else in your sort of circumstances to join the forum and reach for support here too.  A lot of the support comes from walking along this treacherous road together, and for that to happen, we have to be here .... posting, checking in, on the better days asking about others is a good thing to do .... throw it all into the mix and ditch the guilt feelings .... there is enough going on without carrying that too .....
