Isolated-cold-lonely and depressed.

As i live in an isolated regional area with all the cold weather with my depression i am finding life very hard at the moment. I am not new to BB but have not posted for some months but find myself needed help as I am sliding into a dark place which i seem to carry with me…

With not that much support available in my area at night i decided to reactivate contact on these forums as it was helpful then so why not now. STS

Hello Dory_

Pleased to meet you!!!

Yes i'm isolated out here and i love it, my wood fire is burning iron bark so at least i'm not cold not like the last two years bloody cold in my container haha.

Lucy and i talk all the time, we have a game…we look at each others eyes to see who looks away first..she is the only dog i have had that does not look away…she wins every time .

I'll think about building a bridge.

Wayne. AKA shaun the sheep

You are welcome in regards to the hug Wayne. Happy tears started to well up when you called me darl'n.

I see you still have your little Lucy. I have not heard of that forum in the USA. Is it a depression or anxiety type one then?

And have you got friends in your local town? I thought you had some relatives somewhere near your property.

I am sorry you are feeling stressed.

Sherie is back on the forums, I am sure she will post to you when she sees you are here. She is just taking a break, and will come back mid next week sometime.

I am okay, just plodding along really. I am not on BB as much as I once was though.

Have you still got Lucy at your feet there?

Does Lucy look at you like in the picture there? She seems to be staring right into the camera or perhaps you or whoever is taking the photo.

Hey Shell,

Lucy is always with me…in winter she is on the lounge with me as the floor is a bit cold for her to be on the floor.

Yeah the mymsteam site is for MSers and its run very differently from BB and i find the BB forum a positive site and seem to get depressed reading horrible posts on the other site as i find it very depressing reading what the future may hold for me.

I look forward to talking with Sherie, yourself and my new friends.

So what are you up to during the daylight hours now your house is finished?

Well Shell I've just finished all the tiling and what a mission that was, i really can't do a lot during the day as i can only walk about 20 meters and need a big spell..at least i can still get around. I need to find enough energy to pack my stuff so i can move and apart from that tv seems to be my life.

Are you still watching Shaun the sheep?

Is it tiling the roof or the floor that you did?

And what will you do with the container?

Yeah Shaun is on every arvo and i try not to miss him, not much makes me happy but Shaun and his mob still makes me laugh, i am trying to develop a cartoon of my own i just need to a few more characters.

The container has all the solar and batteries in it with the solar array on the roof so it is part of the property sale.

The tiling done was bathroom, loo and laundry..all looks good…glad its all finished as i am so tired but i say to my self there is all ways someone somewhere suffering more then me. Bless you all

Glad you are getting a laugh out of watching Shaun and his mob. Baa... Baa. It is good to laugh....

Are you truly making a cartoon? How are you doing that ... on the computer, drawing, writing a story?
