Question: I have lost a lot almost at once. House, car, job, friends.How do i keep going?
Answers:

I recently have been in a similar position as you,. Consider that some times we who hate change, have things forcibly removed from our lives because they are not the right things for us any more and there is another path or paths for us to now walk. Maybe the house (for example) was too much for us to keep up... A house can be a money pit. The job may have been so stressful you may have been saved from becoming ill from the tension. I dont know how u lost friends, but people do come and go in our lives, Either thru death, moving away, or maybe the relationship wasnt meant to last, not all relationships are. I am not making light of your losses. But do look at what you are meant to do from here on, We have eyes in the front, not the back, of our heads so that we can look forward not backward. Something new and maybe a lot easier awaits you. Now, if you are depressed over ur losses and not feeling better, u may want to seek out a sliding scale counseling agency and talk to some one. Pray for guidance as to your new path, I am not a religious fanatic but do find this helps. Ask to be directed about where to go from here. ALso this sounds stupid I would never have believed it, seek out what I call mindless entertainment,, I never liked computer games, I thought they were a waste of time but when the thoughts got too painful I would start some simple game or watch a comedy or light hearted movie on tv (if u still have one). I do because I am staying in a hotel paid for by home owner insurance for now as my house burned down. I lost all my belongings orf 40 years of housekeepng, family heirlooms and some of my beloved pets. I still count my blessings, If we have a computer or one u are able to use, (I use the motel one ) we can reach out. There are also support groups on line for almost every difficulty u can imagine. Some of us are support group people ,some are not. U decide what is best for u. ALso VERY important for u to take EXTRA care of ur body and mind by watching ur caffeine and alcohol intake (hope u dont smoke), and eating as healty as possible. There is medical and emotional help from social service agencies , you have to go looking for it. Take care, and God bless you, I hope u find ur new path soon and it is an easier one than before....btw. with any crisis, we do find out who our friends are, some friends may avoid us bcuz they think we will need something from them... let those kind go. u dont need them... and others who we least thought would help, may have just the answer. Find new friends. Every newspaper has lists (usually on one certain day a week) that lists social activities in ur area, free of charge. Look for them. "Fake it till u make it" u may not feel like going. FInd things you enjoyed and check them out even if u dont feel like it. again, good luck

I am going through the same thing.Friends will come and go that's why I never call mine friends I call them acquaintances.In this life we are by are selves and no one is going to help us.I found that out the hard way.Things happen and we do not always know why but GOD has plans for all of us.He gave us what we had a takes it to give us better and bigger.We might not like how he does it but he is only teaching us to keep working hard and keep our heads up and trust me we will get back what we lost and some.It will be small steps first but they get easier with every one.
