Do Any Other People Feel This Way Or Have Any Thoughts?

What can a person do after struggling and surviving 50 years, since 1968, with add/adhd, bipolar, mdd, agoraphobia, ptsd etc. Now dysfunctional with no income skills after struggling and surviving low income unskilled jobs for 40+ years. Now age 58 and single since 2006 and no motivation, surviving on disability after so far, surviving prostate cancer surgery on 2/14/17 and also dealing with hernias, sciatica, degenerative disc disease and sleep disorder issues etc. Bit of a mess.

I'm out on disability with bipolar disorder. I left my job in 2014 and have worked as much as I can under the table. I only work two hours a day but it get me out of the house which helps to focus on myself less.

I feel the same way. I’m on disability for anxiety and don’t feel stable enough to commit to volunteering at anything. It’s very upsetting.

I'm 35 with 2 pending diplomas and I should do my vehicle driving licenses, but I don't have the excitement of a 20year old to do it.
I only have to do the tests for my diplomas and it's been in limbo for 18 months.
After the age of 25 I pretty much gave up on driving licenses. Now I beat myself up for not getting it done.

@A MyDepressionTeam Member hey buddy if you can muster enough energy & courage to volunteer somewhere, I think that's a perfect & precious thing to do!!! I've thought the same. If I can just get my meds right 😣!! We have to remember there's a lot of homeless people that deal with the same issues we do. What better purpose, right?? Anyway, please don't give up. Health problems and age is part of the battle!! No turning back for us ol' folks Lololol. Just charge on as best we can. I can't help but think we do have a lot to offer this world. It's just finding the courage and energy to break out of this damned prison Satan has so craftily contained us in. ♥️✌️✝️☝️💯🙏
