Female 34 looking for platonic friendship and people to talk and relate to - just ended my marriage after 11 years. I suffer from anxiety and depression and this is all hitting me really hard

My marriage broke down back in 2010 after 25 years together, it hurts but the pain has eased over time.

You are definitely doing the right thing by reaching out and from my own experience over the past 3 weeks or so on Cups you will certainly find plenty of friendly ears on Cups.

Thank you for the kind offer, I have come to terms with it but have only recently acknowledge how much on an issue loneliness has been but small steps have started making a big difference.

I know the feeling of leaving a relationship and needing friends. I most certainly am willing to be your friend and and listen even though I am not “Listener”, yet

Hi, from your message it looks like you made the choice to end the marriage and I would like to congratulate you if that was your decision. It takes incredible courage to be able to stand up and say no to something that is unhealthy or abusive or just not going in a good direction and after 11 years, I’m sure you found the truth about that. My marriage lasted 25 years and most likely last 23 of them was me struggling to accept something that was completely unacceptable. I also suffer from anxiety and depression and you are not alone. I hope that you can find your way and it is normal to have ups and downs throughout the journey forward. Please be kind to yourself and remember that you need to make yourself happy first before you can give anything to anyone else. I’m on your side.
