I hardly go out. be worse in the colder weather. had gloomy, windy days, weather plays havoc with my depression. xx

Ditto same here...only time I go out is to see my doctor or hospital. I used to be such an independent person and now I'm slowly giving up xx

[Mandypandy1969 in reply to BeeBee50]

me too. I am not me anymore. I have no life. can't do the things I used to and yes I was always active but not now. feel like I have the flu all the time with these muscle aches and constant fatigue. so debilitating you don't want and can't go out socialising. I am so close to giving up my sport of 28 years as I can't cope anymore playing it. xx

Its a vicious circle hun...so sorry to hear you might have to give up the sport you love but I 100% understand how you feel 😕 I was always out, smile on my face, make up and hair done. Now my neighbours wouldn't know if I was dead or alive!! If I do go out which is very rare I have to plan it so precisely so I see as less people as possible, its a vile feeling which then enters into a different feeling of how lonely I am. Stepping out of the door becomes impossible, even to take the rubbish out!! I miss appointment through this, I look at photos and think if I could turn the clock back...I could go on forever Mandy xx

me too. I haven't worn makeup in a long time. I hardly go out. not much of a life for us. xx

No it isn't hun its become groundhog day and it isn't as easy when people say 'do this do that' you know the sayings 😡 the calmest place for me is by the sea xx

Your sport??was always doing things for self too,now its hard accepting the help,I do go to local care&share in community, have nice lunch and chat that's good.

o.m.g. snap. I love to hear the waves. walking a long way is the problem.

I also have an app on my phone with sounds of the seaside which is good to listen to at night. I'm a cancerian too so being by water takes all my pain away for a short while....its much better wen I can get to stay with my adoptive mum who lives by the sea ❤
