Depression is not fun. Glad you went and got some help with the meds. If you are use to having people around and then all of a sudden no one! That is hard to adjust to.
I have went through some of this myself. I try and get out 1 day a week and have lunch with a friend or with Christmas coming I try and take one day and go looking for gifts.
This does not sound like much but where I am it is hard to do. I live in small town and not a big selection of stores & such. It is amazing what you find in a drug store!! Ha ha!
Try and use this time as ME time. Spend time with your mom and do things together. I wish I lived close to my mom so I could do things with her.
Glad that Erik is doing well. Now it is your turn to take care of your self. You have been through a lot as well.
take care,
Diane
