Feeling bad

I know it is Christmas but I do not feel good. I am trying so hard to overcome this awful illness but it is so hard and makes one feel so alone. Relations do not seem to understand and just leave one to get on with it. Thank you so much for this site and one knows you are not alone.

Hi PinkRabbit. Sorry to hear you're so down. I'm glad you posted. I understand. I've been going through alot of stressful stuff and it's hard to feel good. It can still be hard without extra stress. I send you hugs! If you want to chat, please do.

I have to say I like your name, PinkRabbit! :)

Hello there. Thank you for your kind message. I am trying so hard to get over this illness so many, many people have it. I lost two of my dear friends in August and then my pet passed away. I had him for over 20 years and I miss him so much. I hope this doesn't sound silly and I'm trying so hard to get better. Thank you so much for your kindness and hugs - it makes things feel better.

Aw, PinkRabbit it doesn't sound silly at all. It's hard to lose 1 friend or pet, goodness, to lose 3. I'm so glad you posted, we all need support at some time. And i am so sorry for so much loss. I lost a couple of people back in 2016 and it still doesn't seem real. As for the pets, I had 2 bunnies in 2011 that were best friends. The female, Velvet, passed away in 2017 and I almost lost her mate, Nugget. I got him a friend after his girl died and wouldn't you know it, Nugget doesn't get along with the newer bunny and I have 2 cages to clean!(I hope that last part gave u a chuckle :)).

So i send some hugs as do my bunnies! I'll b here for you.

Hi Pink,

I know what you mean. I feel like all of the TV commercials and Hallmark movies that depict perfect families and happy endings can make me feel that I don't measure up in that Holiday Spirit.
