    Dear moms_love,

     

    With time, things could change.

     

    I have answered a question under the "Ask" feature (the purple menu button on top, next to "connect" and "marketplace") in which I responded to a question about a person with schizophrenia feeling like he is alone and not a part of other people's lives.

     

    This could be part of the "woodshedding," this could be because someone's afraid of what people will think of him when they find out he has a mental illness, it could be simply what he's going through.

     

    Even though I have a job, I, too, sometimes stay by myself when I'm off work.  For instance, yesterday it was cold and raw and rainy, so I stayed in the apartment.  Today I will do more of the same.

     

    I hope you are getting something out of the Connection Web site, and I'm glad you are writing SharePosts.

     

    Please continue when you feel the need.

     

    Best wishes,

    Chri
