What is something to look forward to? [I Battle Depression]

I pulled myself out of depression and lost 20% of my body weight because I had something to look forward to and a deadline. Covid took that from me and now I'm sliding back into the darkness. What is something I can look forward to?

I hope you'll feel better soon. Everything's going to be alright.

@Ragnarock1276 You are better off even with covid having wasted some of your time. That stuff rarely works out and is just years lost of your life but with a broken heart ontop of it. When you meet people in person they are so different, and even if you still feel the same, they probably think you are way different than they thought.

@Earthwrap true. That was always there poking holes in my fantasy. But I shut it out to keep moving forward. When meeting her fell through I couldn't shut it out anymore and started slipping back into depression.

@Ragnarock1276 Well if it's not depression from being lonely, it's depression from a broken heart. can never win. Gotta find inner happiness somehow. Easier said than done. I'm still working on finding that myself.

Sounds like covid gave you a new, trimmer body. Your chance of meeting someone local (forget LD online) just went up 50%.

@SW-User I thought I would look a lot better after losing 60 lbs. I mean I look better but not like I thought I would. I lost it in 6 months. So I wonder how much was water and muscle mass.

Look ahead to when this fucking awful pandemic ends and plan how you're going to make up for lost time when it does, and it will. And how amazing that will be.

Maybe a pet

@assemblingaknob I've had a pet for a while. Seems to help a little.
