Sebastian is isolated after a major depressive episode: a call a week would help
Sebastian is housebound after a major depressive episode and is looking for a friendly, patient person for a weekly call.

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

- 30 minutes a week

thanks for sharing this, Sebastian. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier!
Rooting for you. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together. Take care
Sending love, Sebastian. Hope the treatment goes smoothly and recovery is quick. Greetings from Oakland
Thinking of you, Sebastian. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Mumbai.
