of pissed 48 do you mind telling me how old you are? I recently turned 79, always been a female. Widowed, have heart challlenges, spine, creating walking challenges. Just recently moved into my son and family's home. They have fixed a room up for me which I stay in most of the time.
What caught my attention is what you said about working up to take a shower. I used to be very independent, I co habitated with for 15 years. He recently died of a recent heart attack.
I desperately just need someone to talk with. If you are willing please respond... I live in Austin, Texas
PEACE & LOVE ...JJ

Hi JJ, I need someone to talk with, desperately. I have had depression for many, many years, I am 79. I had two episodes of depression when my doctor was trying to switch my meds and I was close to suicide. My doctor is the best and I am okay now. I am taking Welbutrin, Seroquel, and Trintellix.
I was in a relationship for 16 years, he died and I have been alone for 2 years. My daughter lives near by, but that is not the same. I have such a hard time really, really telling my daughter how I feel. My daughter is on a cruise right now she will be back in 10 more days. I have not been outside for 6 days.
I am sorry to go on like this. Thanks for listening
