How to not feel like in solitary confinement

Due to poor health I have to spend many hours in bed. I have been very suicidal and this led me to ghosting my friends as I couldn't deal with life basically. I dont want to contact anyone still as am still idealising. Now I feel like I'm in solitary because I can't leave the house apart from a quick walk around the block. I can't work and hobbies are an impossibility due to not being able to get anywhere as I can't drive and feeling terrible. Not sure what to do. It took years of decline to get to this point and can't go on like this.

Sorry to hear what your going through, Flowers

And I can fully relate to how it can be hard to want to reach out to people when it just doesn't feel possible or like people will understand ,but is there anyone you can talk to irl about how your feeling? As It sounds like you are wanting to try and move forward from what you have been going through?also Maybe it's worth talking to your GP if your are suicidal? As they might be able to offer support or help which could make a big difference in how your feeling? , and you mentioned about hobbies? Is there any way you could do some of the things you like at home and then maybe go to any local events or places , where travelling to places won't be as difficult?
