Is there anything to do where you live? Somewhere to go and be around people?

I have an awesome suggestion. One thing to volunteer at an animal shelter. Animals never judge us by how we look, or what we have, they just love. My other suggestion is I go to a website called DBSA (Depression and Bipolar support alliance) They have free meetings online, and if you look in your area they can also have weekly meeting. I go to the online meetings, and on Tuesday's nights, I go to the in person meeting. The first time I decided to go to the in person meeting, I was so scared. I didn't what I was walking into, but I was so isolated, so alone, that I took the chance.... and I am so glad I did. I look forward to that night more than anything, because after you get over the awkwardness of being the new person you start to get to know the other regulars and you are with a group of people that does not judge you, they support you. Because they too go through what you go through. Some more remote places do not have in person meetings, it really depends where you live. Please check out that page, maybe you will feel less alone, and when you have others to talk too, you feel better about yourself. I know that feels, no one should feel that way.

I like that idea, I might try that out. I've been thinking about volunteering but not at animal shelter. I'd want to adopt all the dogs. Lol

Please don't adopt all the dogs! LOL! Check on the DBSA, I think it will be really helpful. My username there is Dore, so maybe I'll see you in a meeting. I wish you luck.
