I joined to just have people to talk to, I have depression and anxiety, I don't have much contact with people outside my house, and I'm still alone when my husband is home. Well I am a broken mess, what about ya'll as they say here in Mississippi.

Hey there. I work from home so not much contact with others on this end. Feel free to message me anytime.

Hi Alone! Glad you're with us. We say Y'all too (it's a good word)
Sorry you're feeling so lonely and stressed. This is a good place to remedy that. If you'd like to chat, I'm available. Hugs, prayers, and blessings

Welcome aboard this DS lifeboat. Hear that you're alone even when hubby is there. I'm in Texas, so ya'll is part of the vocabulary here. Ya'll come back. Welcoming hugs.

I can relate to what you are saying. I work online from my home, so it can feel pretty isolated, especially during the summer when my sons are gone to live with their father; Welcome! We're glad you are here and you will find people who get what you're going through. I'm sorry your husband is so attached to his phone. My sons are the same way. They don't even realize how much the phone has taken over their lives. It helps so much just to know that you really aren't alone. You can share what's going on in your life and know that we're here to support you, not to judge you.

Hi alon3, welcome to dailystrength. My first marriege was to an abuser, the second one was to a fairly decent fellow, but by then I was worn out and couldn't tolerate much. He got to the point where his face and soul were constantly playing online videos. some of it may have been my fault as I started pushing him away in the end so I can't really complain about it. It felt like one of those relationships where I was always the giver and I was give out.
