    • About Me

      I am new to life alone, I do not know why or how it happen so quickly.I recently moved back to my hometown to be close to family.they have their own lives, families.Why am I so lonely?Recently I was diagnosed with some depression, what is some depression? Wouldn't you be depressed being alone after all these years, now with only my pain as my companion. I need friends, my friends from my youth have all grown up and away from me. I am alone in my home town now.How did life get away from me so fast? Where did it go? Did I turn my head and it went by, he went away?

      I don't know anymore, for years it was HIM, and US.Our lives, our children, US. Although he was so bad to me, I kept it hidden as wives do..Yes I know it was wrong to let him be. In the end, I get big house, all I want, but him.I still miss him. That is where the shameonme comes from.My children, my beautiful children, grown torn and they should not be, none of this was their fault.I let him do it, hid it for him.Protected him from the public. I get my big house whereever I want.Now I am alone in my hometown. Yes I am depressed. I need friends.True friends, I have found in the last 25 years living this type of lifestyle these "friends" are never true, maybe that is what I thought I would find with my house again in my hometown.I am no longer poor Barb from the poor side anymore. That is my shameonme.

      Hi Barb, I'm so glad that I can be of help to you. I'm kind of new to this website myself but since I've been here, I've made some new friends, who are very supportive and understanding of what I'm going through and I also understand what they are going through because we all have chronic pain and it can't hurt to talk about your feelings and maybe at the same time you can make some new friends and get some new insight into getting some pain relief for your pain problem. I understand completely! I hope you feel better soon! Take care of yourself! Hugs, Joanieg

      Wow, there is so many things I'd like to say to you, but I just don't know where to start. First of all, you don't have to be alone; especially being on here. There are so many wonderful people who have the biggest hearts, and they will reach out to you; you just have to talk to them. I want to reach out to you, because I felt your pain reading your profile, and it truly broke my heart. I am so sorry that you are not only feeling chronic pain, but deep emotional pain as well. I wish I could take it away; I really do. If you ever need to talk, or I should say write someone, than please send me a message, and I will get back to you as soon as I can. Please, try and meet people on here. because you will be amazed about how amazing they truly are. I have made so many wonderful friends. Take Care, and I will keep you in my thoughts & prayers, Lana
