So March 5th I had my gastric bypass surgery. As of today's date, I am healed and feeling about 99%. The problem is loneliness. My older sister was with me for a week but she had to return home to her husband and life. So I am back to living in my situational depression, and my loneliness due to my social anxiety disorder, and while I have physically done something good for myself by having this surgery; I can't seem to be excited or care that I have done it. There are more pros than cons for having it done which was the only logical reason I can come up with to justify me having done the surgery.

I need to find something I can volunteer at during the day for a few hours.

I want to cry so bad. My meds do their job though.

Choosing surgery is a big choice and we sometimes question ourselves on the BIG choices.... 

it would be hard to be alone as having others around to talk to and motive you and cheer you on    feels better in my opinion... you will need to be your own best friend and set goals and cheer yourself on.   You have started down a new path and getting out and volunteering or trying new things is a win.
