Hello,
I hope it's okay to share does anyone else feel incredibly lonely? I'm very grateful to have a nice DH and two lovely children. I've lived on a remote farm for the last 15 years and had severe illness, so never really had the chance to forge new connections. I have a couple of old friends who I keep in touch with, but it's not regular contact and the distance is huge. I've had 3 major 'breakdowns' over the last 3 years and they seem to have affected my ability to connect and chit chat. I feel a shell of my former self. I've never struggled with friendships before, but I seem to be in a real catch 22. I feel like my bubbly personality has gone since the breakdowns, and they've really affected my confidence.I don't feel upto much, don't fit in with school mums, or the country set. My best friend of 33 years ago sadly died 5 years ago and life hasn't been the same since. But where do I start? Is it possible to build a friendship circle or friends in these circumstances? Thank you in advance x
