New to the Group & Seeking Connection :)
As a new member of this group I look forward to connecting with others. I am quite stuck in a rut of depression and anxiety and have been isolated for a long time. It's strange to me that depression isolates me when, absent depression, I am extremely social and truly love the company of others. If anyone can relate I'd welcome comments. Well, I guess that's my start -- I wish everyone well, and look forward to being active in this community. :)

Hi PoetryWriter, glad to have you here with us in the 50+ sub-com! I look forward to seeing you in the forums and discussions which are a great way to connect with other members too.
Wanting to isolate yourself is a symptom of depression. The depression does not want you to connect to others and feel comfortable but it can be hard to do the opposite what the depression voice tells you. I hope that you find the support you need on this site and look forward to see you around!
