Lilly--Congratulations on your two weeks. Sorry to hear about your feelings of isolation; remember that we are always here even if it's not in the flesh. There's always someone here at SR who will be willing to listen and help.

I think it's good that you're talking to the counselor about the isolation and I hope s/he will help. I'm not sure about the cloudy feeling but I do know I feel lonely sometimes but that doesn't always have to be the same thing as being alone. I'm glad you have taken to the volunteering opportunities, and I hope you can make some new relationships with that. Moving to a new place where you don't know anyone is scary (I've done it several times) but you should definitely allow yourself plenty of time to make connections with people. Good friends take time and that's a GOOD thing. Hope you're feeling better soon.
