Hello, I am new to this sight. I am single and hate it. I am so lonely. I was in an auto accident 20 months ago and during this time in my life, at the age of 55 and not able to work, I was served with divorce papers. Before my auto accident life was good! I don't know how to reach out and meet new people because I have so many physical problems and am not able to drive. I thought that joining this site would help me find people to talk to. I love people and my jobs were always working with people. Being able to talk to people by internet, phone or in person would be wonderful. Of course, I would never talk to a stranger in person. If you are lonely and just want to talk please contact me, I would love to talk.
Welcome!!! There are lots of wonderful ppl one here!!! I'm sorry about all the hard times you've been through and hope they get better for you. How is your recovery from your accident going? What are your interests???
Here anytime, Manic
Hello, it’s going, slow. I have had 2 new surgerys in the past 6 weeks, one on my back, the other to remove some hardward from my ankle. I am always in pain, never really go anywhere except back and forth to the doctors.
My interest are really just my 4 grand daughters. Since my accident, I have gone through a divorce, was unexpected and hurtful. It seems since my accident I am so alone, looks like I must have been the one to be the social person because it’s hard to believe noone calls me and that’s so hard to think who really was my friends and family.
So as far as interest, I really have none. I can’t go out, I’ not allowed to drive. And that stinks, if I could drive, at lease I could go to the mall or for a drive just to get out or find a support group somewhere around here. It’s hard to meet someone when you are home or at the doctors all the time.
Thank you for replying to my message, that was very nice of you!!!

Dear przhall
I will suggest that in addition to this site you seek for professional help from a therapist. Here I find wonderful people and very wise people as well. It’s clear –from what you are telling- that your accident changes your life and creates an extra psychological trauma. Sometimes a physical trauma changes our personality too; we expect a different response from the people close to us. A good psychologist may help you to deal with all that internal pain that the accident causes you. Here you will have people that will always backup you and you need to know that you are not alone.
Thank You, I have looked into this and have yet to find a therapist,but tomorrow I will call my insurance company again and get some numbers, it was very kind of you to respond to my message. The accident was bad, they did not expect for me to live. Went to the doctors today and yesterday, seems that’s all I ever do.
Thank you again, I will be sure to call my Ins. Co. tomorrow and find a therapist!!
