"I'm up and down like a yoyo at the moment" Same. The odd thing is that I’m struggling to get excited about life returning, and that seems silly. I should be looking forward to dating again. I’ve been out with a few friends and every time I do it’s been great, but I really have to give myself a talking to to get out of my pjs and go. V x | |||

"I’m alone and no issues with that.... I can agree with myself, but I’ve been wobbling lately.... I’m normally exceptionally happy and the one being positive, but lately I find it hard to motivate myself..... I know we’ve been through a lot lately snd I’m so thankful for what I have but sometimes I cry.... and feel so sad for no reason.... so I’m here if anyone ever needs a chat I’m a message away xx" Might take you up on that someday.

"I think this covid as made a lot more people depressed I am suffered with depression for years but most people would not know because all ways happy on the outside its good that other people also struggle with it there is still a stigma with being down no matter how you are feeling there is always people worse of than yourselfs keep your chins up people we are all here for each other let's start a sad buggers group lol " From Twitter- Kate Bottley @revkatebottley · May 5, 2020 In case you need it: Sadness is not competitive. Just because there are ‘others worse off’ it doesn’t mean you’re not allowed to feel down. You don’t need to look on the bright side or be glass half full, it’s ok to want to throw the glass against the wall. | |||

This thread is to tell you you are not alone in feeling rubbish and you are sent some loving from us all!! x Stay positive there is always us fabbers!! " Great thread. Good to see people opening up I've been struggling more than I have cared to admit. Today I have realised that I have lost my way and feeling pretty overwhelmed and anxious. Starting a new job has not helped, it is long hours and I'm exhausted by it. I know I need to give it time but damn Everything just feels like effort | |||

"I will be when my son leaves for uni... Sob!!" I hear you there, it is a mix of all emotions isn't it. My boy decided to study 300 mile away, felt awful leaving him, but you know he will be fine, this is what we do, we raise them then we let them go. He finished Uni and then got a job! A little closer to home, only 200+ mile away now lol Just keep thinking in term times, he will be home soon enough with a hungry tummy and a truck load of washing before you know it | |||

In the last year I have lost 4 relatives, my dog, got diagnosed with cancer and have had no support other than on the phone. I'm so ill that I can't even go for a walk now or go to the pub etc. My whole life has been turned upside down in a year. I not only feel socially lonely but lonely from the lack of connection and intimacy.

"I've been single now for 18 months. I've survived 3 lockdowns & kept my kids fed & a roof over our heads. I'm proud of myself but it's tempered heavily by being lonely & just not having anyone for me, to talk to, to hug & to just have that reassurance from someone else when you're unsure or having a little wobble. I cry now & then, I admit it. I think sleep has lots to do with it. I'm worse when I'm tired & coping feels much harder. I'm kinda used to being on my own now & it'll take time to rebuild trust in a new relationship but these arms don't half feel empty at times when you just want a hug or cuddle. " I know that feeling all too well, I’ve been single going on seven years now and found it hard to trust somebody long enough to actually give things a go, had a couple of flings but ended up being more screwed up by the end of it. Don’t give up you’ll have somebody to cuddle up to soon | |||
