After a major depressive episode, I have been mostly housebound for 7 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.

Sending strength, Piper. Hope the doctors have good news. My neighbor in Albany donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Albany.
Stay strong, Piper. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Blessings!
Praying for you, Piper. Hope this works out for you
