I can feel myself slipping. Things aren't going well. I'm trying. One procedure after another. Pain. Immobility. But still going...

It's this feeling of worthlessness that sneaks up on me when I'm so tired of doing it all without help or encouragement. I know I'll get through it, but that's the catch.

Like, the more I do alone, the more alone I become.

Aww, what's wrong honey? I'm so sorry you're going through all this. I see you mentioned part of the problem. Anything I can do to help?

ScreamingFox

@LadyGrace thank you, but truth is nobody can help. If I had a family it would be no sweat, but nothing replaces that.

@ScreamingFox I know dear but my family is far away as well and I hardly ever get to see them, but no man is an island. Maybe they shouldn't be because we were made for fellowship with each other and to have friends. I mean that's just our makeup and there's nothing abnormal about wanting to talk to or be around friends or other people. There's nothing wrong with wanting to talk to people once in awhile. You never know what information someone has for you that could help you and then you wouldn't also have to feel so alone. Why be alone when you can have friends?

I can relate to this in the sense that, yes, I know I can do things on my own. I’ve proven it time and again. But I’m just effing tired of having to do things on my own.

You can do this on your own, you're strong and amazing, you've been through so much. A good family is wonderful, but a good friend is also great. Keep the close people closer. Hope you heal faster 💜

Im sorry to hear, I understand, it really messes with a person mentally, emotionally and physically.

I am so sorry to hear this. Don't give up. I know how you feel. Both my wife and I are only children and our parents are gone now. So it's just her and I. She is handicapped and going through cancer. I am all she has. As for me I get very little help from anyone.

ScreamingFox

@Musicman I'm sorry you're going through this sweetheart. I know the only thing to do is keep going, but a dose of kindness could really help.

Musicman · 61-69, M

@ScreamingFox Yes it really does. ☹❤
