Crushing Loneliness

I have a huge loneliness problem....But when I had my beautiful puppy Kiara, it made it bearable and I was able to deal with it. Now it is like a huge wave washing over me, crushing me. I feel like at any moment I am just gonna collapse under it....I am on 60mg of cymbalta and yes it helps the depression, but not the loneliness. I am so scared.....I would love to get another pet, but I dont think I could ever get my roommates family to let me.

I think you should ask them, tell them how the loss of your puppy is affecting you. BTW did your puppy died of parvo or distemper... if so best not to get a puppy as it would be at risk of getting that kind of illness.

Have you thought of volunteering at a local animal shelter... it could perhaps help your lonliness and depression (look for a no kill shelter if you can\'t handle the euthanasia stuff at some big shelters.)
