If you or someone you know are facing similar problems; poor health (retired/disabled), lonely, and trapped in this lifestyle due to limited income, then please bookmark this blog.
There must be others out there who daily rack their brains, trying to come up with some solution to the continual boredom and lonliness and lack of practical help. Perhaps we can come together and find a way out. Or maybe someone will stumble upon this post and show me a way out. I'm not living, just existing, and I can't keep on like this.
I currently live alone in a rented house in a somewhat rural area. I'm fairly young, disabled, no family or friends. I can't have a roommate here, and can't afford to move. I don't care for populated areas but it may come down to that, just so I can have human contact, although on my income, I'd likely live in a poor and dangerous neighborhood. Not exactly a step up, and it scares me.
I've been disabled most of my adult life, and have had to rely on others to get by. (I'm sure you know the joys of that!) I'm living alone now for the first time in practically my whole life, and it's lonely and boring. It wouldn't be so bad if I had some friends, but they all dropped off one by one as my health prevented me from doing anything, and since I rarely get out, I've been unable to make new friends. My pain is not as bad now, but the narcotics make me so sleepy, to the point that I have no sleeping pattern anymore. I can't make plans because I don't know if I'll even be awake.
I'm not an outgoing person (creating this blog is very awkward for me) but everyone needs human interaction. Can you relate?
I've got to do something to change my life, but I'm not sure what. It would help if I had a friend or two that I could discuss these things with.
Please drop by and say hello.
