i know where you are at with your frustration and being bummed out. I've been crying for the past 2 weeks and cant get out of my funk if i tried. My family lives on the opposite coast and really doesnt care all that much about whats going on with me, my friends all walked away because i cant party with them or im too depressing to be around, my roommate is definetly sick of me, my girlfriends from work are all busy working nights and im missing that social aspect, and the few friends that are long distance call here and there. Its so lonely and sometimes i wonder how much longer i can hold on and wait to get better when im just being swallowed up inside by this PCS. Depressing...i know. sorry!

I have been the SAME way! I have been so down and so bummed. My youngest daughter lives with me (she's 22) and just moved back to NC from CA. We were in the car yesterday and I changed the radio station. I love Adele, but if I had to hear her sing one more sad song yesterday I was going to jump out of the car. My family lives near, but they don't understand what I am going thru and my friends don't either. I've had to remind myself, repeatedly, that while I might be stuck at home due to my circumstances, everyone else isn't. They are still working, still going to school, still taking care of families and doing all the things they have to do-that has helped a little. I have been so isolated and alone. It is horrible. I'm so sorry. I hope that knowing other people are going thru the same thing helps-in a weird way.
