My life is a lonely mess
Depression Support / by Cherryma

...See more This is a random post. Apologies if I ramble on. I've been dealing with health issues for the last couple years which has dragged me into a deep depression. Other than my immediately family and 1or 2 other people, I have no one in my life. My illness means I can't work, I have no social life and I've fallen out of contact with friends I used to have. I haven't met a new person in like 5 years! Pathetic really . With valentine's coming up, I can't help but feel super lonely. I am 29 and only ever celebrated one vday. I've isolated myself from the dating world because I just don't feel good enough for anyone. I just don't think anyone would or should put up with me. Who wants to date a chronically ill, depressed, unemployed person? I'm not exactly a catch. It's hard when everyone around me are in relationships, getting married and starting families. I just hate how lonely I feel all the time. If it wasn't for my family I would have gone a long time ago. But unfortunately, I'm getting to that point where they're not enough. I don't know how much longer I can sit and watch other people living their lives and I'm just stuck in my room.

Living with Endometriosis

...See more I feel like endometriosis is taking over my life. I've been suffering with this for 2 years and the last 9 months have been the worst. Ive been off sick from work for 3 months and I just found out today that I'm now being made redundant. I have no social life, which means i have no relationship with my friends anymore. I'm single, still living at home with my parents at 27. But life with this illness means that I can't fix any aspect of my life right now whilst I'm stuck in bed all day. And the constant stabbing pain and contractions I feel on a regular basis means that I actually don't want to do anything but curl up in bed with a hot water bottle and sleep. I am not very useless dosed up on painkillers either. I actually don't know how to live and cope with this. I don't know how people with worse conditions cope like this.
