I have been there for quite a few years. House/room bound. Friends are online gamers I can Skype with and the only people I interact with are at the VA Hospital or Offices. Can't drive and health issues keep me where I am.

I do hope things work out for the best for you.
@MrPerditus1 I do wish you could atleast drive. Thank you for your wishes.

@carnivalofcrazy Thank you, I do wish I could too, but after my head injury it was put to me, I could either drive, have a seizure and hurt others OR not drive and not hurt others. No real choice in the matter. But have lived with this for a long time. Just tired of it sometimes.
@MrPerditus1 I can imagine.

Yes I've felt that way and I hope better for you!!

I've spent my entire life that way. It doesn't get better. You'll burn yourself out trying to do it all alone. I would work on that
@TinyViolins I am in therapy. Always been hard for me to make friends.

@carnivalofcrazy Same. I'm at a point now where I just can't bring myself to face that disappointment again. I got a dog, which makes a world of difference, and I'm just going to try to ride it out with her for the foreseeable future

There are a lot of online resources though that may help. I've heard people recommend Meetup and Bumble as possible solutions for introverts. I haven't had success with it, but I didn't put enough faith to see it through. There are some people that would swear by it

Wow. Can't you move back to where you have friends & family...?
@drymer no, that 1400 miles away. He controls the money. I am unable to work.
drymer · 56-60, M
@drymer exactly...

Sorry to hear this. Must be awful!
@Ambroseguy80 It is. I read or busy myself with stuff around the place.
Ambroseguy80 · 56-60, M
@carnivalofcrazy or practice
You sound like ME. I live alone and don't leave the house unless I have to.

That really sucks about your husband. So sorry.
Feel free to message me. 🤗

That sucks so bad. :( I battle loneliness a lot, but it comes with the territory of being disabled. :)
@thepreposterouspanda I have medical issues ,but they dont have me in wheelchair. I am sorry you're lonely too.😔
thepreposterouspanda · 36-40, M
@carnivalofcrazy I'm not having to use a wheelchair anymore, but I need a cane whenever I go out. It's all good though! :)

I'm sorry you have to deal with medical stuff too. :( It's such a hard thing to have to battle, because most people just don't understand.
