Life is so getting me down...numbed by stress, boredom and lethargy

I don't know what to do with myself lately. I feel so horribly fed up and bored with life. I'm single with 2 teens who spend 3 nights a week with their dad. So lockdown was/is quiet and lonely a lot of the time. I did all the garden and house jobs back in lockdown 1 so not much around me needs any significant attention. I was hoping to start looking for a partner but clearly that has become unrealistic! I lost my job due to covid back in March and have only recently started a new job - and its horrible Sad On top of that I have a number of pain issues and the GP suspects it might be rheumatism....so I'm feeling like a right old lady now. I just dont know what to do to cheer myself up/give myself a lift. Maybe just writing it down will help a little Sad

I’m sorry you’re feeling like this OP. I feel very similar myself and anxiety is at an all time high. Currently trying to calm myself down. You’re not alone x

Sorry to hear you feel the same kerosene. I know its difficult times these days and that doesnt help, but I seem to have lost the ability to give myself the occasional kick up the bum to snap myself out of my mental lethargy. Well if I have any brilliant ideas I will let you know! x
