Hi Strawberrysc,
Electric blue here, nice to meet you

I have the same thing going on as you do. I won't answer my phone, i turn my cell off and leave a do not disturb sign on my front door. It's all part of this awful depression.
I'll share something i was shocked about at the time, but now think it's funny. Due to all my problems including financial, i was unable to hire someone to cut the grass which was getting a bit out of hand. One day, i had a knock on my front door. It was my neighbour. A nice elderly gent. He said the man who lives across the road from me was thinking i was dead because the grass was so high. They decided he'd come over to check on me. Thinking back, that was very nice that they cared.
Hope you don't mind me chiming in on your question? I think we all go through the wanting to be alone, so don't worry
