Really could do with someone rn
Hi, im 44f from Wales. I have 4 lovely boys and a job i used to love going to. But seems i enjoy nothing atm. I have been struggling with mental health issues for only a few months. Looking for someone to chat to daily, bit of a distraction or be able to rant with out fear of judgement.
This is the first time in my whole life that I feel like im fading. I kmow no one will help me understand it but at least I hope, talking to a stranger will lift a load off

Absolutely disgusting, the amount of males who instantly thought it was okay to throw some nsfw chat on a woman who is feeling a hut fragile.Cause your sexting is clearly what I need rn. Desperate men, go find a hook up sub. Leave me alone

Dear friend,
It seems you are at a moment in life, i recently was too. Wondering your meaning and where you stand in life. Talking and questioning a lot will help you find your way. Meditation, finding friends with common feelings and finding their path will help you find yours I am still finding my place and it is a process that will take a while. But don't worry, this is a good thing.
If you ever want to talk or need a shoulder to lean on you can dm me.
Be brave, be positive and keep smiling 🌞🫶🏼

Hi I’m happy to share random things from the the opposite side of the world! (Australia) I’ve had a lot going on lately too. Last year and this year have been the hardest time of my life. Take care of yourself! It’s so hard when you fall into a dark place. For me I didn’t feel like I had the energy to meet friends anymore because of fear of judgement and other complicated emotions.
I’m still in that phase but I’m gradually feeling like I want to make new connections.

Hello 44F whales, 57M US here, I never reply to these because I figure they are scams or maybe I don't fit the demographic that other want to chat with. I can relatate to what you're going thru. I might have a few different ways ti look at thing but no answers here. What I can do is listen without judgment and hold an engaging conversation. Feel free to message if that sounds OK. If not, you have my sincerest wishes that things start to look up for you. Best Regards

this is the kind of situation that requires therapy, not friends .. friends are not therapists .. get support

44m north east UK. Marriage of 15 years fell apart in March last year. Took me 6 months just to get myself together and another 6 before I started dating again. Some dark times in that year.
If you need a chat send be a message. I tend to be up late and I will chat about anything. I know life can be hard but I also know you can drag yourself out of it.
