Topic: I just feel so low

I just feel so low
Today I just feel so so low and tearful and can't seem to think myself out of it when usually I can muster at least a tiny bit of positivity.It is pmt time again(the girls will understand).
I have been out this morning with my best friend and she is brilliant but off this afternoon just living her life.
I feel like mine is static and I rely on her far too much.
I need to make new friends as I know at some stage her life will be moving on (away) as she has plans and I think this scares me. I have other friends but don't see them very often.

Re: I just feel so low
Dear Julie, I felt like that last night. I have not cried for a bit as I had people around at xmas etc, but last night reality set in again, and however much friends are there for us, they do have their own lives to live. I think we will eventually pick up the pieces and make our own lives from this heartache and chaos, but it will take time and the sadness will always be there and will surface at different moments. I am not being much help, but just wanted to say that I know how you feel. Crap is the word, but just go with the flow and hopefully you will see a glimmer of light again soon.

Take care
Julia

Hey Julie - have been feeling much the same myself, and I sometimes think it is perfectly ok for us NOT to see any positives sometimes, I mean after all, our worlds have been turned upside down, our hearts broken and our sanity questioned.
But I have taken great heart from this site and have also decided to join a chat room hosted by another MW visitor .. Martin - think you can find link if you search on his name. I am also taking brave step of joining the WAY organisation in my area. Meeting new people is the last thing I want to do, but I feel at least these new people understand how I feel and won't mind us leaning on each other as we are all going through the same thing...
Hope this helps even a tiny bit - sending you love,
Susan ( Scotland )

Re: I just feel so low
Thank you both so much for replying.
I did phone WAY today for some info.I thought about doing some volunteering but I feel that is for a bit later on when I feel I can give of myself again and I'm not ready yet.
Probably can't do the chat room thing as the boys hog the computer when they are home. Just wrestled them off for a few mins.

Hi Julie -so sorry you are feeling this bad especially when you have been such a help to me. I don't know what's happening but I too have had my worst day yet today. Could not face going into work and did a bit of sobbing. My friend has been brill and turned up yet again just for a drink and a chat but I know I really lean on her and it can't go on -she has her own family and life.
Let's hope the sun shines for us tomorrow (it will be 11 weeks for me). I send you love and hugs. You have done so well. Bridget
