im looking for a friend

Not sure if this is the place to do this but i looking for some friends going though same sort of stuff im going though. To try and appove my socail situation and maybe a house mate [edited by moderator].

My depression has left me house bound and i also have major depression anziety, and ptsd. I lost my family and friends and living in a new state i cant connect too. And my suports keep changing its very annoying. I lost supports like weekly of late leavs me thinking i have to future nor do i want it. I hate life.

One suport i had for a bit now shes has to let me go, im going to miss the work me and her have done to help me.

Shes been my bigger support for so long. No happy at all specially with change so gratefull for her help and support

Hey @impact78 ,

Welcome to the forums. I can see that things have been challenging for you lately.

Whilst these forums are anonymous, I hope you find the support and connection you deserve as you navigate this challenging time.

What do you like doing in your free time?

Hey @impact78 I'm sorry to hear that things are so rough and you're facing a lot of isolation at the moment. It's really challenging when supports change or leave, too. Sounds like you had a good rapport. Do you have new supports lined up? You could sign up for Recovery Club if you haven't already :)

Welcome to SANE’s Recovery Club

I'm glad you're reaching out to find some connection, the forums community is really good for that - there's always someone around. Check out the Social Spaces if you're looking to chat with others regularly ;)

Re: im looking for a friend

Due to my mental health i lost some interest in my hobbies and things i like to do. However i do like movies and tv shows like jurrassic pk and stargate,, when i can afford it i build lego. I used to like swimming and traveling and seeing museum learning about history. But my mobilitiy is shot due to health conditions and the agoraphobia its hard to leave my place.

Re: im looking for a friend

I get what you mean @impact78 and considering that Recovery Club is a time-limited program, I can understand your hesitations.

I can hear how much you're wanting to connect with some like-minded people. I will link another thread that's been around almost as long as the forums, I think it's got some really good people there that maybe you can connect with :)
