Hello Bendigo, and can we offer you a warm welcome to the forums.
I too, am over 60 and wonder where all the years have gone, where we try and summarise our life in a small capsule but we can't because how we felt 10 years earlier maybe completely different to the current time, much has changed, whether or not we accept it depends on the person and the situation you're in.
The wonderful job you've done at the hospital as well as at Vinnies maybe on hold for a few weeks but will desperately require your help once again when this lockdown eases off, so it's these 6 weeks and possibly any past time that has brought you to the site.
You have done what you wanted, to talk with other people even though it's not one to one by voice, but we still understand and really appreciate contact with you.
Even though normally you're happy being alone does not take away the fact that now you feel alone and for that, we're really sorry.
Can I suggest you talk with your doctor, either by phone or if they are seeing patients, because they may need to prescribe medication to start with, to help change how you are thinking?
I say this just to balance your way of thinking but would love to hear back from you.
Take care.
Geoff.
