Re: Loneliness
Do you have a hobby to keep your mind occupied ?One friend makes cards and jewelry, money goes to charity, others I know knit/crochet blankets/ baby clothes for hospitals. Its 20 years since my husband died, I do get very lonely,and have the tele on most of the time as a background noise. If I feel blue /bored I walk out in the garden, cut back some plants, Clean out a cupboard,do a bit of washing,anything to fill my mind.I talk to the cat when she's around. I ring a friend ,not to discuss my problems,but chat about weather /current affairs,maybe arrange to go out with them one day I am lucky to have a son living at home, but he spends most of his time up in his room He has health problems and can be very ' moody' so I do not see or bother him unless really important.Like most older people I do worry about what would happen if I can no longer get around /do things for myselfRe: Loneliness

Re: Loneliness
I don't get lonely so much at home, too busy with hobbies, but sometimes at night I could do with a warm body to cuddle up to. However I do feel lonely if I'm out where people are in couples or groups of couples.Re: Loneliness
