A kind voice on the phone: Vera'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 4 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 film, travel stories and poetry, 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.
Thank you so much.

Wishing you peace, Vera. I work in healthcare and wanted you to know people are on your side. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Grand Rapids.
Hope things get better soon. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Thane
Sending strength, Vera. I hope things turn around soon. God bless.
