I spent 10 days in the hospital recently. Except for seeing a doctor each day and starting new medication it was not a good experience. I'm home now but have the same problems as before, no family and only a few friends for support. Only one friend lives near me so I'm pretty much going it alone. I do think the medicine is working, I'm trying to get back into my routine of what i used to do. There is a lot of free time in my day. Unfortunatly being in the house fosters depression, but being out fuels the anxiety. At the moment the anxiety is worse. Hopefully as the weather warms up I can start my walks again. I think that will help the most

It’s never fun being in the hospital.
I’m sorry for your pain & suffering.
You are supported here.
Damn, that’s so real.
“being in the house fosters depression, but being out fuels the anxiety”
I can relate to that so much.
Wishing you ease & peace.
A friend I met in the hospital stopped by to see me Sunday. His wife made that comment and it really hit me because it's so true. Being in the house too much is depressing, but getting out makes me anxious. Right now I'd rather be home because the anxiety is worse. I'm slowly trying to get out and get less anxious about being out. I did find a support group that meets once a week but from what I was told they get a larger crowd there so at least for now I'm going to pass. At least I have my computer back from being repaired.
Hello Kateba- Glad you are back. I’m sorry about your struggles. I pray that you will stay strong and not give up. I hope you will get better from depression. I agree, a walk outside is a good idea especially with sunlight, it helps to uplift the mood.
Please stay in the forum and I hope you will be encouraged by being here. Take care of yourself and God bless.
