Pt help some depression

I am a 59-year-old man in a wheelchair 90% of the time my quality of life has changed. I feel very depressed very lonely unable to speak to anyone. There’s nobody understands some of the words that I say don’t even make sense based on the conversation conversations that I have which are very little, but I’m hanging in there

  1. Hi my heart goes out to you. I am glad to hear you are hanging in there. It sounds like the physical therapy has helped, I hope you can continue with that and feel better. Please keep us posted. Jill (Team Member)

    1. I’m really sorry you’re feeling like this. It must be incredibly tough dealing with the loneliness and frustration of not being able to communicate the way you want to. It’s so easy to feel isolated when it seems like no one understands, but I want you to know that you’re not alone in this. There are so many people in this community who can relate and offer support, so you don’t have to go through this by yourself. Stay encouraged, Latoya (Team Member) 🧡
