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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

    Hang in there, Radhika. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. My neighbor in Surabaya donated after I showed her your page. All the best

      Hope it all works out. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Munich so I could bring a meal

        Wishing Radhika a smooth procedure and a full recovery.

          Take care, Radhika. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Take care

            Stay strong, Radhika. Looking forward to the next update. God bless.
