Hard Days

I’ve been struggling lately since a family member had a health setback and I don’t have much support from other family members or friends. When I realized Easter is this coming Sunday and reached out to my only sibling to see if she and her family wanted to get together that day like we usually do and she said “no,” it sent me into depression last night. I know my family member who has the health issues will recover eventually and I’ll adjust to the changes in life but right now I feel very alone and scared.

Welcome to the community.

Maybe you can find something nice to do for yourself on Easter?

I'm so sorry you are feeling alone and scared

Thank you! Yes, I like that idea of doing something fun and relaxing for myself, like going to a spa or hike or visiting a friend in another town.

Feeling alone is really scary

It is! But it’s nice to have groups like this where we can chat with other people to feel more connected.
