Re: The Challenges of Mental Health Wellbeing
Do you want to talk about anything either whats happening for you or something else distracting or just sitting?

Re: The Challenges of Mental Health Wellbeing
I just worry @outlander
that one day I won't stop at my thoughts, but will act on them. And with each time, the risk and danger increases.
In some ways, I see my life before me much as it is now. Lonely, some friends but not one of them close, no one really to shop for clothes with, no one to have coffee with. Not a partner to live and be loved. A very lonely existence. While much of that has been my choosing, not having those connections is soul destroying. I don't know if I can live a life like that until my time is done. I can fill my life with work, volunteering, etc but when I come home at the end of the day, what is left for me?

Re: The Challenges of Mental Health Wellbeing
I've done the online dating thing several times @outlander
but there's lots of not great before you get to great. At my age, many men come from broken relationships, so there's lots of complications of exes, children etc. Or the men are still living with their mother, or living a poor existence of a bachelor life.
And I'm okay with a number of friendships, but I don't have a close friend who I can share deep things with.
Many of my friends are overseas so our contacts are very sporadic, one sided (usually me making the contact) and very superficial.
I'm sorry, I don't want to talk about this anymore. It would be great if you could just sit with me. Thanks lil Sis
