Feeling very isolated, down and lonley

Feeling very isolated, down and lonley

Hi everyone, I’m feeling very isolated, down and lonely and are getting nearly no support. It would be good for someone to support me and help cheer me up?.

Hi @LFS, I live in a large regional city but @Jacques and @Former-Member live in less populated areas. Just tagging them to let them know about your post too.

How are you tonight? I've had a busy day. Here to chat for a little while if you like.

Okay thank you. I’m feeling very depressed and lonley. I haven’t been doing too much at all. What have you been up too today?

I had medical appointments this morning, @LFS. Then a visitor. I've been doing things on the computer as well. Sorry to hear you are feeling down.

@LFS I read and responded to one of your first posts on the forum I think, when you were saying it was hard living in a small country town. I don't have much experience of that but can imagine it could get isolating. Do you have any hobbies?

I play competitive tennis once a week this time of year which I like doing. Apart from that I barely see anyone

How about going for walks? I might go for walks in nature alone if I lived in the country. @LFS

I try going for walks, but get very little enjoyment out of it due to my mental illnesses

What do you do to pass time through the day, @LFS? I have made myself find activities for myself, so as not to just sit in a chair most of the day, as I have done for long periods of time in my life. I like the computer a lot.
