Isolated

Hello all,

My life is changing every day. Since I've left hospital I've learnt a lot and had a fair share of ups and downs. Lately I have just felt so isolated. And I cannot even explain why. It's not that other people aren't there for me, it's more that I'm struggling to figure out who I am, I just get so frustrated and lost in my own thoughts and I cannot make sense of my own feelings, my identity. I feel I'm just in the too hard basket.

Re: Isolated

Hi @Shimmer,

I feel lost. I don't feel I belong to at work anymore. I know I'm still healing but work has always been my friend, my ally, my passion. Now I sit in the chair and don't know what to do with myself.

I am compassionate to everyone else but myself - I'm working on being kind to myself. It's hard to be kind, I've always been a high achiever and have always pushed myself hard.

Re: Isolated

@Former-Member. I've logged off for a few days. Needing a break due to anxiety.
But I just wanted you to know I haven't forgotten you.
I'll write back in a few days when I'm feeling stronger.
Hugs for you ♥♥
