Thanks everyone for the replies they've all helped which is pretty amazing.

Thanks Oliver, I've been experiencing some powerful emotions lol.

Yeah that's definitely been true in my case but it's gotten much better. Going to group Therapy up to 3 times a week, taking meds for depression, started Journaling for the first time in my life. Every unaddressed issue in my life is now staring me right in the face. I'm not sure who I am...

Great Job !!!! Celebrate this victory !!!!!!

Retired six months ago and fell flat on my face. For the most part I only leave the house to go to group Therapy and I've found lately I've even been skipping that. I guess the meds are helping me to sleep and dream better. Dreaming has become my life lately. I decided to get out on the...

Thank you for the response Sues. I've been keeping my journal close to me lately. Sometimes it seems to take all the effort I have just to pick it up when I'm reliving something but hopefully this is all worth it.

Sometimes we don't have all the answers but it's still important to recognize where we are at the moment and go gentle on ourselves. Recovery is not linear. Sounds like the last day or two has been hectic and you needed a recharge. Go gentle on yourself.

Thank You. ❤️

I also need having some kind of human company around and don't do well on my own. I guess it's called Codependence.

You Def aren't being a baby. It sounds like you've had some very difficult experiences. I hope you find some peace and love friend ❤️ 🙏

Thank You !!!

That's what's been keeping me in the house. Keeping me from any social interaction. Keeping me from moving. I've been looking over my life and I'm feeling soo ashamed over it that I'm afraid to walk out my door. I need to find a way to process this. It's going to destroy my life if I don't...
