I’m tired of a lot of things, of doing this thing called life alone. I chose not to have children after living a traumatic childhood till I was 13 and placed in stare care. I never experienced love from my family or my past boyfriends. I have spent my entire life feeling never good enough for people, in the last fifteen years after I left a relationship I have felt more distant then ever. I worked as much as possible so I was either tired and didn’t think about the loneliness. I lot a few contracts and started baking, giving the food away when I could afford to do so. I’ve rented for the last 15 years and have had to do one bad move which was very hard on me giving away a beautiful harden and accessories to people I thought were friends but users in the end as I only live 30kns away and they choose to have nothing to do with me. I only work one day now and am struggling with filling in time, I do exercise every day for an hour, but there’s still over 13 hours to fill in. As i live in Victoria near NSW I’m stuck because of the coronavirus in Melbourne and not allowed out of my state though my area hadn’t had any cases for 90 days.
Tired of making friends to be let down by then, one life friend said speak to the psychologist, so I speak once every 6 weeks. I really don’t see much point continuing my life, there’s only so much one can take and I feel like ending my life especially iff I cannot go to Queensland in December for Christmas which I have not had Christmas for over 35 years with anyone. I do not take drugs or drink alcohol, just extremely overtired of my living.

I hope this year everyone realises How lucky they are, even if they only have one family member: I hope you embrace that person and if you can’t see each other speak on the phone....and let each other know what you mean to them. I think it’s good some people who normally have had no worries might be doing it tough with Covid, the one good thing about the virus it doesn’t discriminate against no one.
Rich, poor, coloured or white, I hope when it’s all over people realise how lucky they were before it started.

Hey D i dont think ppl who have never suffered going into covid learnt anything necessarily from this time
they talk abot covid teaching us things but i dont think so - they'll stay in the dark if they choose and wont' develop empathy through this necessarilly

i had a friend who had never really struggled before and she felt like covid was impossible - because she lost a lot of conveniences. but she was still insensitive to others and lacked empathy about this as a common experience
i wish too the world learnt empathy - guess we are trying

4 hours it takes to go 10 minutes on the freeway and now we have a case in Melbourne from Sydney, just let them stay up there instead of bringing it back here.
My appointment via the phone is the 12th of January...at 9am.
I’m going away for four days tomorrow, have to get away from hearing my happy neighbours, am going walking all of Christmas Day.
