I'm so sorry you're not feeling well. You're going through a huge life-change and it wasn't that long ago you were in a very dark place. So please be gentle with yourself.

Is there anything at all you can do on the weekends that gives you a feeling of enjoyment, peace, or consolation? Anything that can give your mind a reason to look forward to the weekend instead of dreading it so much?

Even if you can't think of anything now, perhaps you will later. You are healing, and that takes time. In the meantime, please take extra-good care of yourself.

I hope you feel better soon.

I'm not familiar with your story. But I want to send you hugs and strength and some peace this weekend. You're not alone. Try and do something for yourself.

Hugs,

I also dread the weekends. During the week I have work which keeps me busy and I have many people to talk to. Many weekends are spent alone. I recently moved back in with my parents, and have had to adjust to living with them and their expectations. Anything that makes me feel good I do, like, hot showers, movies, walks, talking with friends, and of course daily strength. Here is the time where you can improve yourself, and figure out what makes you really happy. I know it seems like an abusive person is the only thing that can make you happy but in actuality this abusive person sets you back. Keep your head up. Life is always changing, and so will your mood if you are willing to take it in a positive direction, and this is your chance to do so. To be away from an abusive person, and chose your path and destiny is really the best thing. Best wishes.

I don't have a lot to add, just wanted to show my support. Weekends are really hard for me, too. Try to pamper yourself as much as you can. Definitely try to get out of the house each day, if only for a short walk. Watching films can also be a pleasant way to pass the time and shut off your thoughts for a while. You will get through it.

I usex to always dread Sundays. Now its all the same.. The days are longer for me in the winter when its cold gets dark earlier and time seems to stand still.
I hear we should focus on ourselvles instead of them. They aren't sitting around sulking about us.
Think of colors that you like. Journal. Praying for you Sue

Hey need. I am sorry, and know how weekends can seem neverending compared to the distractions on offer during weekdays.

I tend to focus on things that DO keep going on Saturdays and Sundays: cinemas are open, many cafes are too. If I was feeling isolated, even as a broke graduate, I would get myself a simple mug of tea and sit among everyone else just reading a book and allowing the human buzz around me to offer some comfort.

Even being outside among others and keeping my feet moving helps me feel less alone. Might work for you too.

Hope this helps and sending you big hugs! xx
