Hey all, I am new on here, I find myself so busy with work, studies looking after my parents, that I feel like I'm slipping into a dark hole of exhaustion, like many I am lonely too after a break up of an 8yr relationship and the end of a 20 year friendship my friendship circle has gotten small, having mild anxiety and depression I tend to hide out at home often, I am sure many can relate...if anyone wants to connect and share about life and existence that would be awesome! 😊🌸

Just to update you all:


I have recently started therapy and am now on a journey of self healing, sometimes we make ourselves so busy (running away from deeper issues) my anxiety and depression were symptoms of my past trauma that I needed to face and work through. (will be a long process)


I recommend therapy or/and talking to a listener on here (thank you Rising Phoenix for being there) they have brought me back to my true self 😊🌸

Welcome to the community! I completely understand how overwhelming it can be to juggle work, studies, and family responsibilities, especially after going through such significant personal changes. Remember to take small steps to care for yourself, like taking breaks and reaching out for support when you need it. Even in tough times, you’re not alone, and connecting with others here can be a great way to find comfort and understanding, feel free to chat with me or anyone else whenever. Stay strong, and know that brighter days are ahead. 😊🌸

I feel you on the busy life.  It's all work, work, work for me.  I very seldom see my best friends or hang out with them anymore.  Yeah, I am always alone.  Doing things on my own.  It's sad yeah and exhausting.

Oh. I can feel it as 8 years is a very long time. I believe in 8 years we gain everything about a person while losing almost everything other than them... Breakup after that is so so hard. Yes we can relate and talk about it if you want.
