Greetings to all who are reading this.  I’m not sure what I’m looking for here.  Perhaps just some kindred spirits.  I am 69 years old and divorced since 2015.  As I had no income of my own, I had to move into a quickly constructed bedroom in my basement so that my son and his family could move into the … Read More

I would remind my past self to take the time to say no. Saying no was the hardest thing for me to do for the longest time. I let others walk all over me just to make them happy, and refused to accept that this part of who I was and my fear of abandonment forced me to only focus … Read More

Is this some new thing that … Read More

I feel pretty hopeless and alone lately.  I don’t really know why. It’s Spring and the weather is nicer. It seems like I should feel better and want to do more things outside, but I don’t. The days are longer and they feel too long. It’s too much time in one day  I have the feeling of wishing I wouldn’t … Read More

I expected this website to be more active .  I was hoping to connect to people that feel the same way I do.  People who have never experienced depression just don’t understand.  

I would choose to be friends with Aaron Lightner from the Anne Rice Mayfair Witches series. He was part of a secret organization called, the Talamasca. They studied supernatural people and their powers. He also has some powers of his own. He also sounds like a very nice guy in general who would make a great friend. What about all … Read More
