Thank you. You know, I used to live with a psychotherapist who often told me, "we are all just a speck." This is how I feel today. Just a dot in this huge world full of millions of people. I think it is some kind of Jungian thing or Nietzsche, but it sure rings true sometimes.

Oh dear!! I'm so sorry to hear that you are having such a rough time of it. I know life transitions can really be challenging, especially with health conditions, and it sounds like you're in the middle of a major one. I want you to know that you are NOT just a speck and God loves you! Maybe there are art classes in the area where you could explore new mediums, make new friends and hang out with people? I've heard that Hobby Lobby might offer stuff like that. I think it's so cool that you have a gift for art! I've tried painting before and I find it really challenging.

frances007, God Bless You. I am so sorry you are going through this. Yes, coming off an antidepressant I was told by a dear friend can cause a lot of unwanted emotions.

I'm so glad you felt safe to "unload" your heart. Sometimes we just need someone that will listen and care.

You have made me laugh many a time with your jokes and one liners. You have a tremendous sense of humor. That's a gift my friend.

Have you tried journaling? It certainly helps....I find. This is a way of expressing thoughts and feelings. Keeping everything "bottled up" is not good.

You are a people person I can tell. It's hard when you are battling sickness emotionally or physically to be isolated from friends, job & family....especially when the friends/family become ill themselves.

You are a beautiful person and there is nobody else just like you. God made you special. I am praying for you right now to be lifted up and encouraged and for God to send you a new, trustworthy friend.

I care.
