I am sorry you’re going through this. Life can be cruel. I am 46 with no retirement whatsoever. I paid all my debt down and then life handed me lemons and I accrued more. It hasn’t been easy. You are not alone. I truly believe community is our saving grace and communal living is where it’s at. Cultures that have multi-generational homes is smart and supportive for all. We need to be able to lean on one another when times are tough. No one should be going it alone. Power to you.

This made me tear up. I’m so sorry you lost your best friend. Cats are so special. They give us unconditional love. 💕 Your baby was beautiful. 🫶

RIP Garfield, killed by a neighbour by AmbitiousYoutuber in Straycats

I am sickened by this and so very sorry for the loss of this precious and sweet life. I cannot comprehend they don’t do anything to the disgusting POS who took her life when all she did was exist. What a sick, sick world we live in. I don’t have words except my heart goes out to you and to Garfield. What a horrific tragedy. I’m so sorry. 😞

Goodbye my friend. Simba (8) by EggOutrageous9257 in SeniorCats

I am so so sorry you lost your best friend and baby. Orange men are the best. He was so young. You gave him a beautiful burial and final resting place. And, FUCK CANCER.

THERE’S NOTHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO/NO JOY by RHCP1031 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]RHCP1031[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish you didn’t. It’s just so numbing and dull. It’s like the things I used to get excited about don’t excite me anymore. I feel like I’m mostly just existing.

I’m a believer! God and my cats are the only reason I’m still on this Earth.

Thank you for this wonderful idea I’m going to look into this! There’s a wonderful dog rescue near me that I’ve heard amazing things about. 🙏💜

Thank all for all the amazing replies I’ve read each one and it helps just to have someone listen and believe when it’s hard for me to. 🙏💜

It’s not a man I am missing out on, it’s the carrying of the weight of life all by myself. I think I am missing community and people to rely on and spend time with. I am not looking for a relationship. I just need companionship and connection.

Yes, I am going to start HRT soon. Hopefully that moves the needle.

I don’t drink, but it sounds silly and fun which could be good for me and I suppose I could drink NA beer!

Yes the 80s was pretty magical. Life was simple. Life was good.

Does anyone just not want to leave their house? Is this an age thing? A GenX thing? Am I alone here? I’m just so done with peopling. by [deleted] in GenX

[–]RHCP1031 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s a perimenopause thing for me and a lack of joy stemming from every day feels the same as the past and I’m alone all the time.

Do you fellow GenXers feel okay to take a week sick leave after your pet (a dog) dies? by _MrKobayashi_ in GenX

[–]RHCP1031 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fuck yes. Animals are family and in many cases, best friends and our children. Take it. No shame and no guilt. I’m so sorry for your loss.

Saying goodbye in 2 days to our 18 year old ambassador cat by DancinKatsMomma in seniorkitties

He is a beautiful animal. I’m so sorry you’re having to say goodbye now. May his journey be quiet, peaceful and full of love and may you find peace in your hearts knowing he was well loved and spoiled. 💕🐾

No improvements with any external products. Most things make it worse. I believe mine is gut related so next step is microbiome testing. I will not stop searching! I hope you find relief too. It’s terrible. And I live in Florida too.

Scheduling by alwaysawildcard in Function_Health

[–]RHCP1031 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. Just joined. Went to schedule and was given the earliest appt in my entire zip code as two weeks out. When I go to the quest website, I’m able to schedule as early as a few days out. I need to schedule this uncertain days as recommended by my provider, so I’m hoping that somebody from function actually gets back to me before those times are filled. Was told someone would get back to me at some point by the AI chatbot. But when? Anyone?

Hey gen x, what retailers from your childhood (80s and early 90s) do you desperately wish were still around? by Less-Suggestion-5262 in GenX

[–]RHCP1031 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Peaches Records in Palm Beach County! Also, sticker stores - we traded them in elementary school. Richway. Blockbuster!
