I can see you're in a hard place right now. So, it feels like it did after the divorce? How did you deal with the feelings at that time? Maybe you can remember the ways you coped, and maybe some of those things could come to your aid again.

If I were in your place, I know I'd be totally overwhelmed by everything, including the unpacked boxes. I think that it would help me to just unpack one box each day. That would probably help me feel less overwhelmed.

I have a little journal that I write in when I have a hard day. I don't write every day, but when I do, it feels good to see it on paper. I probably should write when I have a good day, too. Seeing that on paper would be good for me, too. Have you ever kept a journal?

I found that ear plugs are good.

Jim

Hi Jim ..No, this is nothing like the divorce .... that was 12 years ago ... this is the typical "sorry I moved" feeling. I should have never given in to my kids and left a place where I felt "planted", where I'd lived for over 30 years and moved to a totally new area which I don't care for. Unfortunately I sold my condo in MD, so I can't go back to that. I'm 72, so it won't be long. abby
