I need to talk to somebody

[Lovekey]

I need to talk to somebody and I need a friend. At least a real friend. I need a real person and I can be that real person for you!

Hello Lovekey, thanks for posting your comment and we know there have been many times when this is exactly what we wanted, but unsure of where to start.

Please feel comfortable talking with us because we know how difficult it may be.

It would be great to talk to you.

Geoff.

Hi LOvekey,

Sounds like you are doing it tough right now! I would like to welcome you to the community here. I am not sure if you have read about the way this forum operates, there will be a delay between your posts and the answers you receive. It is just how it works here.

Would you like to share a little more about yourself and why you feel so lonely?

You can certainly make connections with people here. One thing with the forum is that we are all anonymous, meaning we can sort of be friends, but not in the same sense as people you meet outside of this forum.

People here certainly care for each other!

Hope you feel comfortable here and welcomed to continue on.

Cheers for now from Dools

Well this is my first time on here. I am 79 yrs and you are probably saying to yourself "What on earth is someone of that age doing on here?" Well, I have been carrying all this crap around for about 40 yrs.

Now I feel I am too old and I just want to lay down and go to sleep.

Hello Tiggyblue, a warm welcome to you.

Anybody at any age can come here to the online forums, 79 years old is nothing but to carry all of this around for 40 years is way too long for anybody to have to suffer from any type of depression.

If you want to get back to us and tell us a bit more that would be great.

We have many caring members who would be delighted to offer you the help that perhaps has been missing in all of these years.

We don't criticise because all of us have had to struggle with our own type of depression and know what it can do to us, so please, it would be great to hear back from you.

Geoff.
