Alone and overwhelmed

Hi, I'm new here. Really been struggling the last few weeks. In addition to being depressed and unemployed I am completely overwhelmed by everything that is going on in the world. The worst thing is that I am completely alone. I don't have a supportive relationship with any family members and I don't have any friends either. The only person I have to talk to is my therapist. I just wish I had someone to take care of me.

Thank you, I hope so

That is terrible, I'm so sorry. I hope you'll be able to lighten the horrible weight on your shoulders.

It's safe here and people are very supportive as well as understanding, so share however much you're comfortable with.

Best wishes and best of luck...

Yes, I do limit my exposure to the news. I've been listening to comforting music and podcasts and watching funny movies but I'm still feeling stuck in this depression.

Thanks. I have an appointment with my therapist today. Hopefully I will feel at least a little better after that.
