[QUOTE="ANewLife4Me, post: 765399, member: 32799"] Even though I am married my life is isolated as well. Depression is such a pain in the butt, takes all of your energy away from you. I find that the more I fight it, it’s hard to get started when there is no motivation, forcing myself to do even the smallest things really makes me feel so great about myself and want to do even more. I have fibromyalgia which causes widespread pain all day everyday. My doctors put in my chart that patient is happy and laughing, cannot be in that much pain. My body has adapted to it and I refuse to let things control me. Dizziness with no known cause, my mother suffered from this as well. So what do I do? Bought myself a walker to be able to go out and sit if the dizzy gets too bad. My mother was all that I do not want to be. She was so loving but, she gave up on life early on….I don’t want to be her sitting around all day. Guess what I am trying to say is we all have issues besides our children’s that get in the way of us leading a full life. My children have noticed over the years a dramatic change in me concerning my mental, my daughter asked how I did it. Unfortunately age is a big factor and lessons learned but, mostly because I fight. Hate any medication as I used to be a pharmacy technician and the medication some take to take care of the side affects from the other medication they are on is crazy! So what is it that we love to do? You seem to love nature and being outside at your pond or the park. Are there other things you would love to do maybe challenging yourself so as not to be isolated? Mine are thrift stores when I get the I cannot stay in this house a second longer. lol Sometimes I scare myself as the dizzy will overcome me and I am frozen to wherever I am.
