Dear Mikeyme...
A very warm and caring welcome to our forums...
Im deeply sorry your feeling this way..and also so deeply sorry about you loosing you wife...I lost my husband 7 years ago...I can understand the loneliness and fear your feeling about dying and your children finding you...
I am 65 and for many years didn’t go outside or talk to no one...I decided to volunteer with a well known charity..it has helped me not feel as lonely because I get to chat to a few girls one day a week....is that something that you might consider?...They definitely need men volunteers...Also chatting to your Dr and telling him about your thoughts, fears and how your feeling..would be a great help for you..if you feel you could do that..
Here for you dear Mikeyme if you feel up to talking...
You were very brave reaching out to Beyond Blue..well done..Its a great first step...
My kindest and most caring thoughts..
Grandy..
