Hi @sunny1,
Welcome to the SANE Forums. Thanks so much for sharing your experiences with us.
It can be really hard coming up to holidays and not being with our loved ones, especially if you're still going through the break up now after such a long time together!
I hope the contributers here on SANE are able to be here for you during this difficult time. Especially as you're having trouble keeping up with friends in real life, maybe it will be easier to talk to people with lived experience online?
What are you hoping to get out of your time on the Forum @sunny1?
Thanks again for sharing, and all the best.
