Reaching Out and Remembrance

 
By Fritter Enzyme,

Depression is inevitable.

With things the way they are now it truly is. All of us are effected. I see so many online seeking friends to talk with. So many want to help, real problems require real assistance. I must state at the start, seek professional help. Below I will list some resources. They will lead to others. Depression comes to us all but not en masse and for this long. Other than wars we haven't dealt with times like these. There is much help is online, but as we recoup our lives we can again meet face to face. I hate to even mention the loss of pets during this time.

Holidays have been disturbed, traditions dropped, loved ones separated. Not like there isn't plenty of craziness other than the virus. We will want to have the past back, but things will not be the same.

Hot lines are a good way to seek help, if not in person. They can give you resources to fit your life and needs. But again, trained professional workers.

Some have told me they have no insurance. When I was without insurance I went through my county health department. Call 411 for First Call for Help. They can lead you to agencies to work with. Call 911 if it is an emergency!
