Depression Understood Forums

I'm to be here meeting all u. I have no family. All have passed away. Friends r the family I pick for myself so to meet new family members. Anxiety and depression have saddened my life. I have multiple medical problems. Worse than those is my loneliness. I am physically disabled. Don't get out much except for shopping and doctors appointments. I'm looking for volunteer work. Problem: transportation. Still working on that. My computer is my life's companion, brings the world to me. Gives me no problems & I had it built for me. I love live chat, forums, my microwave oven, my walker on wheels with its own seat, my lovely little apartment, drinking hot lattes, , watching tv, "The Event," "Chase," "Hawaii Five O," "Criminal Minds" and similar programs, watching CNN. I miss "Lost" and "24." My fave movies "Red Dawn," "Red Corner," "Avatar," "Stargate."

Don't b strangers. Please let me hear from u. Thanks. *MaryEdythe*

Hello mary. We have a chat room associated with this site too if you want to check it out. As for volunteering, you could always research a program that calls shut ins once a day just to keep in contact with them.

I would be happy to help. Where may I find the information?

Thank you! I'm sitting at my computer munching cashew nuts, one of my major vices. It's been a busy week. Give me a minute..

(((( MaryEdythe )))), it's interesting that you should mention cashew nuts...
I was eating nuts the other day at work. One of my co-workers asked me what kind of nuts they were?
I said " Cashew. "
" Bless you ", she replied, handing me a tissue...
( Sorry! I do the old jokes, but it's NOT MY FAULT...! It's like an illness...I deserve sympathy...understanding ...not condemnation...!

Its been a busy week and weekend, I haven't been here. Cashews are part of my home. I am never without them. Either I am eating them or my friends come over and finish them. Are you near that monster storm?
