Hello. I’m new here

Hello. I’m new. I have schizoaffective bipolar type. I’ve never been manic but have episodes of severe anxiety, and episodes of severe depression that led to the bipolar type diagnosis.

I love hiking. I started hiking as a kid with my dad. It wasn’t fun with him but somehow I developed a love for it anyway. It’s where I feel at peace the most.

I struggle with loneliness. I have a few friends but they have so many problems they don’t ask how I am. They just talk about their problems if we talk at all and we don’t connect like we used to. It hurts.

Thanks for reading. Nice to meet you all.

Welcome to the forum.

I love hiking too. Although here in FL hiking is mostly walking flat nature trails and looking out for an occasional gator.
