A kind voice on the phone: Ani's request
No advice needed - just a kind ear and some conversation for 30 minutes a week.

After a major depressive episode, I have been mostly housebound for 5 weeks. My family live far away, and the days can feel very long. I'm not looking for therapy - I've that covered - but for conversation.
I'm hoping for someone who can call for about 30 minutes once a week whenever suits us both. I like music, books and gardening, and can listen to anything.
This can be from anywhere in the world as long as you speak English. We can arrange the calls through the platform, with email shared only when we're both comfortable.
Thanks for even thinking about it.

Take care, Ani. I hope things turn around soon. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Syracuse
Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Makassar.
Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Orlando.
Sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier!
best of luck. Your post was clear and honest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Blessings.
