How Do You Deal With Loneliness?I
I'm divorced and unemployed. My son's are teens so they have their own lives now. I get out as.much as I can and see friends when I can. But especially evenings can be really tough.
How do you folks deal with being alone?
I agree pets help! But yes at the end of the day watching tv alone is not much fun. If you are looking to date you may try a dating site. Works for some people but I’ve never done it lol. I’ve been on my own for a good while now. I guess I’m somewhat used to it. My daughter is 18 and stayed close got college last year but if going off a bit this coming year and that’s really tuff!! I’m thinking about doing some volunteering and maybe joining a book club or something. Good luck. Hope you find what you’re looking for. And certainly this site has some amazing people to talk with. Hugs and best wishes ❤️
That's a tough one....
I try to go out 2x day, exercise at least 30 min as often as I can. Learning new things can be fun, so I Google here & I Google there.
My dog & cat help too.
@A MyDepressionTeam Member. Awww, Harry, my friends don't giv me time 2 feel alone, but given ur talk'n in particular about evenings hav u considered joining a dating site, there are good ones out there & sum are free. Also, join a group that u hav an interest in, amazing how u can meet ppl that way. Even hav'n a rescue/therapy pooch u take 4 walkies allows u 2 be in an environment 2 meet others wif a similar interest.
Good luck wif ur future adventures, listen 2 Bebe Rexha - an American singer & in particular "Meant To Be".

Ps. There is alwaz us here, BUT i get it, not quite the same, nonetheless, it's good 2 know :)
Yeah, evenings can be hard. Weekends too. I used to go to movies alone in the evenings. I actually enjoyed it. Reading and watching TV helped some too.
@A MyDepressionTeam Member. Oh, Harry, take the plunge mate, now if i say it's a good thing & ur Psychiatrist agrees, c'mon we could be rite!!!!!
I had a ball on the dating sites, it's lots of fun, ur world gets open 2 a whole lot of new possibilities. Sadly 4 me, in the end, i married one of the guys & was repeatedly bashed & ended up in hosp wif fractured ribs etc, i made a boo, boo.
Harry, u won't know until u giv it a go.
I thinkim's i mite start my own business, bugger nursing & start charging 4 consults :) :)
