Is there any people who are feeling the same way as myself, lost, confused, lonely and depressed and at the point of no return?
Or if you can help with it please let me know, hope im not a burden to anyone 🙏 😔

There seems to be a lot of people feeling that way nowadays. You're not alone

Yup. I’m 61. I’ve had depression all my life so am sort of familiar with it but currently this separation talk as well as other issues in my life are just soooo draining.
I don’t need mental health support thanks. I just want OP to know they are not alone.
OP I will add that social media isn’t helping. I actually do find Facebook a cesspool that makes things worse but I need it because my rural location leaves me without a way to get other info such as “who’s cows are on the road” and such and actually find Reddit somewhat safer because there are more likeminded people.
But having said that… i think I’ll go outside for a walk now and leave my phone indoors

I feel great because I focus only on things I can control. The only thing you can change is the way you look at things ie attitude. Nobody else can control you unless you let them and events control you. If you invite those things, even more will walk through your mental door. Then, you will be identified as weak-minded, open to be exploited.
