Rachel is isolated after a major depressive episode: a call a week would help
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 6 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.

Best of luck, Rachel. Hope the doctors have good news. We're a small family in Faisalabad but we're thinking of you. God bless.
praying for you, Rachel. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Please keep us posted.
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I hope September is when things finally get easier. Take care
