    • Close Empty Nests

      My youngest daughter moved out this week. I have 5 children and she was the last one at home. I am a single mom and have been for many years. I also have one son whom I have been estranged from for eight years. I feel lost and would like to talk to others who know this feeling.

      Treatments

      Patience Somewhat Helpful
      Sometimes I feel that I have to just wait until the pain subsides and I can accept that my life will be forever changed.
      Physical Exercise Somewhat Helpful
      I try to exercise but sometimes I feel too depressed to even do that. I guess I haven't given it enough effort yet.
