Hi Friends--Anyone interested in talking?

Hello friends!


I don't typically get a lot of respones to my journals, if anyone, so I don't know if very many of my friends actually reads my jounals, but for anyone that is reading, I could use someone to talk to. 


Here is my situation.  My dad passed away in December, and it caused a reaction in my body that stirred up my illness with a vengence. I hav been dealing with an illness off and on for 10 years.  Prior to this I was doing great.  I was taking care of my grandson 40 plus hours a week ,taking care of large house, going for walks, etc. I was feeling well, and I had energy.  I was living a relatively normal life.  


Now I am extremley isolated.  Part of my illness is that my nervous system goes into overdrive.  I am in fight or flight mode even at times when I should be relaxed. Long story short, because I get overstimualted over very simple things, I have a hard time being around people in person. Meaning I don't leave the house ever, and no one comes over ever.  Not because my family wouldn't visit me, but because I can't handle the stimulation of people, not even on the phone. But, just like anyone else, I need people.  



So I am seeking somone that would be intrested in writing back and forth on a regular basis.  It wouldn't have to be every day or anything, but at least a few times a week would be preferable.  Of course I don't want people writing out of obligation, or pity.   But if someone else out there could genuinely use someone to talk to as well, maybe we could ease each other's loneliness, or find something we have in common to talk about.  Anyway, if anyone is interested message me.  I look forward to hearing from you! 


God bless!

I appreciate your friendship Rian, and I understand that you are busy and can't always respond quickly. No worries at all, always take your time and do whatever is convenient for you. I'm just looking for a few other friends or people that would be interested in writing. And I'm happy to hear that my message was helpful to you. God bless!
