Struggling mentally post op. Feeling isolated

Hi Kandidubrall,
I'm so sorry to hear about your isolation of 5 months! That is very hard to cope with. Are you physically unable to go anywhere; except probably to the doctors? I don't blame you for feeling mentally upset and lonely. Anyone would. Do you have anyone who you could call and have come over to visit?

Another thing you might try is reading a good book to take your mind off of your current situation. There are a lot of good books on Nook Book and some of them are even free. Many are quite inexpensive. The thing about reading a good book is that you don't have interruptions such as commercials. You can read for hours. It's very relaxing. What kind of books do you like? I love reading real journals that the pioneers wrote when they were coming west on the Oregon Trail. It's amazing how they actually made it just in covered wagons and going over the rocky mountains.

Another thing you might try until you are better is watching soap operas. Young and the Restless is a good one. I used to watch it all the time. The characters become like your family and friends since you see them everyday. I still miss Victor!

I hope things work out for you. Prayer still works very well. I will say a prayer for you.
PML
