From people who came through it

  • โ€œI was in the same place a year and a half ago. I remember when the group chat that went quiet, like it was yesterday. These days I mostly feel like me. It comes back so slowly you don't notice until one day you do. You're not on your own.โ€

  • โ€œI was where you are a year and a half ago. The worst part was friends all married with kids now. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. From someone who gets it.โ€

  • โ€œIf you are just starting out with this, I won't pretend it's easy. I went to a meetup and left after twenty minutes. Christmas was a quiet day with the radio on. The phone only rings with spam now. But I've learned that small things help: feeding the birds, a chat at the library. Try to find one person who will meet you for a walk. It doesn't fix everything, but it's a start. D.โ€

  • โ€œI was right where you are about three years ago. Back then it was friends all married with kids now. Now I sleep most nights. It comes back slowly, like feeling in your fingers after the cold.โ€
