Depression and Anxiety at an older age

The best thing for me is to do my own thing. Way too much of an introvert as well as highly sensitive. I could not even teach school because of who I am. I like people, but being a part of something social is not for me. There are no senior type things and BINGO is NOT my thing. I have tried and there are too many I cannot handle. Being old with depression and anxiety is hard. Trying to volunteer is not an option either. I have settled into my little woman's cave and allow the world go by outside. I do not even enjoy the grocery store as I once did. Just hurt too much to play the game.

Paris, I am sorry you are suffering and wish I could offer successful suggestions. I’ll be at Mayo in early March to specifically address anxiety. I’ll pass on any helpful advice I receive. Hang in there in the meantime!
