I laughed out loud when I read what you said about being ugly. Yes, I know exactly what you mean. It's not easy looking into the mirror, is it, especially when you see so many gorgeous younger people, women especially. It makes getting old on top of all of that even worse. I have a terrible time with it. Wish I didn't. Wish I lived on a boat in isolation from all of that. Wish I could live totally in my head.
I know what you mean about depression and making friends. I don't think I don't know how this woman had four or five friends. All I can think is that maybe before her treatment she didn't really know or see that they were friends, maybe before the treatment did it's work on her, she didn't think she had any friends, then after the treatment, bang, she realized that yes, I have a lot to offer these people I just wasn't being myself because I was depressed and now I'm not so they are my friends, I can see that now? Maybe you have friends or potential friends too, and can't see that in the depression. I hope you find something that works for you, what else have you done?
