I can't do this

mylifeisadisaster profile image

I have been waiting for over 2 years for dental help but because I have extreme fear of the dentist. Agoraphobia. And other health problems and medicaid no one will help me. Then a month ago my husband left me and moved out of state. He never even told me what he was doing till I got the divorce papers and he was gone. Now I have no support person and no help to even get basic things. I have never felt so all alone. I'm 60 years old and I'm scared to death. I just don't know what's going to happen me. I'm terrified

Thank you for replying. I am worried because I have withdrawn from the few people I know and I'm afraid of everything. There doesn't seem to be a purpose in my life anymore. I spend my days waiting for a man who will never come back. For dental help so I won't be in constant pain anymore and for someone to care and check on me to see if I'm dead or alive

You don't need to thank me we're all here to help each other if we can it's hard when there's a bug shake up in your life but you will adjust and see in the end that it must of been for the best I know it doesn't feel like that at the moment is there a reason you don't see your friends can you call them and ask one to pop in now and then for a cuppa and chat ? If they can't brew up and message me I too have a fear of dentists I have to be sedated (£160 a time plus cost of work ) usually but lately I've been much better with it as I decided i can't afford it for small things :( is there any local charity's near you that can help you with getting out and about build it up slowly xx

There is no reason I just don't want to see anyone. They really aren't friends just people who live in the same building I do. All my family and real friends have passed away.

I tried agencies and apparently there is no help. This heat is making me feel worse.
