I might be too old for this app. I'm struggling with the holiday blues and would like to find others who want to just chat and find ways to pull out of this down mood...anyone out there?

Hello 😊 And sorry for the belated response.

I am not sure if I am right for the task, living in this world just half a century with a small plus.

Holiday blues? How nicely it describes the state I am in before Christmas, vacations or any red-letter days other than another usual Sunday. Just breaking the safe and cozy daily routine.

The Christmas time is thankfully over, so I hope you feel better now? 😊

Hi J, your reply is appreciated. I think this app is mainly younger people. You must live on the other side of the world. It's 4:30am here. I don't sleep well though, so I'm wide awake.

I have a couple more dates to get past before I'm feeling better. New Years Eve and New Years Day are coming up, with no plans, and no friends or family to enjoy them with. Loneliness is like being invisible. I'm wishing for my existence to be over soon. But I'm not suicidal because that just leaves anyone who might have cared with bad feelings, if that makes any sense. And I'd probably screw it up and become an invalid and a burden to whoever would get stuck caring for me. So there's that...

I’m 40 and would like older friends. I’m glad the holidays are over. I had the blues also.

I hope you're feeling better now that the holidays are over. I'm still struggling with depression, but this too shall pass as they say. If I don't start feeling better soon I plan to look for a therapist.


Sometimes just chatting with another person online helps too though.


It's Friday night here, 12:45am. I'll be trying to sleep soon. Early day tomorrow. Princeton vs Kean basketball game with my grandson at 11:30.


Do you have any fun plans for the weekend?
