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 podcasts, football and cooking, 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 for reading my story.

Hope things get better soon, Patricia. Looking forward to the next update. I hope June is when things finally get easier.
Hope things get better soon, Patricia. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Please keep us posted.
Keep going. I hope things turn around soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Cox's Bazar.
good luck. Hope the doctors have good news. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Best of luck. Your post was clear and honest. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
