Hello, I hope that all of these new members find their first couple of chats well. Remember, if you get a non-responsive listener on the first conversation, don't worry about starting a new one. Each of us has different experiences and may be better well suited for helping in different situations. To everyone getting the help they need!
Welcome all new members! Remember to not get discouraged from a long wait time, or a nonresponsive listener. This is a great way to expand ones horizons, and reach out for affordable help.
Welcome! I just came here myself. I enjoy helping people and I have a background in art therapy and counseling/coaching.

Hi, my name is mybu and I am new. I joined today because I feel my friends gonna get tired of me soon if I don't find some other outlet. I work in China, and the expat community here in my city is not large. I quite recently went through a divorce after 13 years and was separated from my daughter. My ex partner took her home on holiday but because of the virus couldn't bring her back and then met someone and decided to stay. It has been 2 years and so far I have no way to see my baby for various reasons, like visa and travel restrictions, and so on. I have been struggling with depression and anxiety since my child was taken away. then, quite recently, I met someone who at first seemed a godsent. We clicked and he moved in and for a while I was so much better, he was caring and funny and he even played with my daughter on videochat because I call her every day and he was my anchor, and I guess I relied on him too much, and then ten days ago he left because he has commitment issues and doesn't want to make promises and support another person emotionally when he himself has issues. It crushed me. I didn't eat for four days and just drank and drank. My friends had to come and do an intervention to make me eat. Now I am not sure how to proceed because I am having panic attacks and am afraid to be in the empty house alone.
thank you for reading this. I am sorry if it is too much to share. it feels a little weird to do it here but I hope I didn't overstep.
