Empty Nests Support Group
Empty nest syndrome is a general feeling of depression and loneliness that parents/other guardian relatives feel when one or more of their children leave home. Empty nest syndrome has become more prevalent in modern times, as the extended family is becoming less common than in past generations, and the elderly are left living by themselves.
My only son will be moving to Washington DC on Saturday. My marriage is not good at all right now. He has been home since April. He was in Zambia with The Peace Corps when they evacuated. My mom, dad and father-in-law arecall deceased. My mother-in-law hates me. I am so lonely@!
My kids are grown my son left many years ago and daughter moved out 3 weeks ago.
I divorced my husband and my mother (who poisoned the rest of the family against me)
My grandparents that were a mom/dad to me have passed, my grandmother passed in Jan.
I moved to a place 4 years ago where there are no family members, and as an adult I have not found any friends here.
I too am soo lonely!!
activities that they like. I’m trying to figure out for myself how to build more community and make more friends. I think there are some meet up type sites online, but I don’t know much about them.
