Put on some relaxing music, or some rock to pick yourself up.

That is what I usually do. Or find something that you enjoy doing.

Best wishes,

Welcome to the forum!!!

I'm just lonely tonight...husband is still working and the dogs are up for much conversation lol

tug a war with the dogs always cheers me up, or brushing them while I play some of my favorite music is nice.

Peace

Hi!

My husband works 12 hours a day six days a week or more. I know that loneliness you talk about. It's no fun. I tried talking to my dogs and cats too and they just look at me like I'm nuts! :)

I just wanted to say welcome. Everyone here is very understanding and caring.

Keep posting. We want to hear how you are doing.

My night improved some with the movie...the dogs snuggled up close which always makes me feel good. My husband finally came home but he was so tired he ate, we talked a little then he fell asleep on the couch but it still was comforting to have him home. I don't work so sometimes my days get really long and when I'm really down they're even longer.

I have severe depression and anxiety.

Good Morning Kammi,

I am glad you are feeling better. It is hard when we are home alone all day. But the more you love yourself, the easier it gets. You realize you really aren't alone, you have you...

Boredom gets in the way, but I always write down some projects or fun things that I would like to do during the day when I am alone. There is plenty to keep me busy, but that isn't always what I want to do, so I have a few fun things I can work on. Often I find myself sitting in front of the computer coming here. It really helps. Weekends are a little slow, but it picks up during the week.

I hope that today is a better day for you. Keep posting because it does help.

Hugs, Karen...

I am finding I really like this site. It's nice to talk with people who understand what your going through and it helps a lot plus it takes away some of the boredom. The biggest problem I face is motivating myself to do things but when I see some of the suggestions posted here it helps get me going. I'm in a tough place in my life right now but after reading what others have said I know things will get better. It's reassuring :-)

I am glad that you feel that way. It is a daily struggle sometimes. I find appreciating the small things helps me. Simple pleasures...

Coming here is awesome, I don't feel so alone with life.

Have a wonderful day!!!

Hugs, Karen...
