That's good that you are coming here...lots of support!
Plus...this place is addicting.
I keep meaning to sign off, I've been on here since 11 P.M. and it is now 6:45 in the morning. Gesh, that's nuts....
Oh well, I love reading the posts on here and from time to time I try to help out when I can. I'm not very good with words...but I try.
Stay on here if you need to, We'll look after you my friend.
Hugs :ghug3

Hmm...
When I was working ...I would have appreciated help with
all sorts of household chores.
But I lived alone....I hired help.

I'm thinking about general dusting and cleaning...washing
dishes....fixing a meal to be heated up later...scrubbing
the bathroom....doing the laundry.

Or perhaps you have a cleaning service or a maid?

I can definitely understand! It's very early for me too, and it's VERY hard to be alone. (Last weekend was awful). I think if you just try to keep busy as much as you can, find someone to talk to and keep coming to SR it will help so much. I found a meeting I'm going to try... terrified but I feel I need it. Maybe that's something you could consider if you're not already?
