Re: support. I am married so at least I'm not alone. My two daughters are not interested. My friends are not very available; 3 work and one is usually spends time in her other homes. Nevertheless, I do not talk to anyone about my feelings; it's boring for them and self-indulgent of me. I do believe exercise can help but I am lazy. Volunteer work with mentally ill teenagers which I did once for a short time, was rewarding. Made me get out of my self-absorption. But again I am unmotivated. That's the dilemma most people face: you have to be in a good mood to fight depression.
Thank you all for your thoughts. Surely, your "company" makes one feel somewhat less lonely.
