wish list 2011
as this dreadful yr comes to a close there is only one way for my life to go . . UP
as it has come to my attention, i am dealing with depression and unemployment - 2 popular issues that no one talks about.
i have met many who say they have been here. . yet if they have been here offer NO support.
if you r a member of the "been there done that" club you would know help and support is needed especially if the person is looking for it.
my wish list for 2011
find a "free" place to workout. especially if there is a pool involved (being unemployed has depleated funds)
have a workout buddy even if it is once a wk
find a support group to deal w arthritis/fibro or alike - to talk to someone who knows anything about waking up stiff, restless leg or general stiffness of life
knows of a place that has free dance lessons. . country preferred
this is my starting list for 2011
for some this is just life, normal stuff but to me. . they are items on a wish list
thanks for reading.
happy holidays.

Cecilia,
I have been in both unemployed and depressed and at that time weighing in at 470 lbs, with lymphodema in one leg and two knees that are bone on bone. I have never been a person who has looked for support but it certainly would have helped, as I now know.
Come to the Pennsylvania board, there is a wide variety of people there who are so supportive. Also they may be able to answer some of your wish list. You are not really far from Phillie and many of the people on that board are from the southern suburbs so who knows.
I don't know if there is a YMCA in your area perhaps you can use their swimming pool and maybe even meet up with a buddie there.
I do know that there are support groups that meet in Chester county and also up in Langhorne PA. I am going to start attending the meeting in Langhorne in the spring so I can get my head on straight.
As far as depression, you really need to talk to a therapist about that. If you are unemployed do you qualify for State Aid? I started therapy in August and after seeing the psychiatrist he changed my medication, and although it is a mild dose it has helped tremedously.
Finally, this time of year is difficult for so many. I sat last night and cried my eyes out, feeling sorry for myself. I still have 2 bone on bone knees and can't walk any further than a block without having to rest.
Just remember take your problems one at a time and try to think as positivily as possible.
I hope you get all on your wish list.
Happy New Year to you.
Jeanne
