Down

Seems like the last few days have been harder and harder to reach out to people. I really need some help dealing with all these emotions right now and I can't reach out to anyone. It may just be a mood swing, but I am so down in the dumps. I just want to stay away from everyone and everything. I know I need to ask for help, but I am too exhausted to try. Does anyone have any suggestions to help get out of this slump?

I think pushing yourself to connect to someone you can share these feelings with is essential. I know about the slump, the wanting to be alone, the staying away etc. The cocoon-like place is a double edged sword though.

I'll be thinking of you.

I think this is a great first step by writing all this down. All I can say wanda, is fight the urge to withdraw. Try and exercise, take your meds, eat right, and talk with your health care provider. Those area all the things that you have immediate control of. I know this is a tough time for you with the move and all, so just take it one day at a time, and remember that we're all here cheering you on and standing by if you need to vent.
You're in my thoughts and prayers.

i agree with deb to coccoon can be good but can also lead to more isolation keep reaching out keep trying

I tend to isolate myself, but you've done a good job in speaking up here on your blog--good for you! Just know that there are people who care greatly about you--like me!

If it helps at all, please know that your friendship and kindness have helped me. The last six weeks have really been up and down with my hospital stay and then crashing my bike and getting a broken rib. It meant a lot to me when you stopped by with your words of kindness.

Safe hugs ((((((((Wanda))))))))

reaching out like you did here, where people can reassure you they hear you and care about you, is so very important.
