Depressed and feel alone
I am a 56 year old widower who has no family near me and I feel alone most of the time. I take Paxil and it helps a little. How can I feel happy again?

Re: Depressed and feel alone
local charity groups often can help, they arrange for people to visit you and organise outings

some are church based
the paxil should help a lot, maybe your dose is too low??

Re: Depressed and feel alone
church groups are a good idea... or any other groups that will just get you out of the house and meet new people or sumthing.
or, if you really are unhappy, why dont you think about moving closer to your family?
