What's on your mind right now?

Facecloths and corn muffins with blueberries and how skinny by neighbor is getting, he's not eating or he's ill again. I've been leaving him dinner several nights a week, he needs more protein as he works a pretty physically demanding job. It's getting too cold to cycle here.
 
Looking for supported independent living that isn't exclusively for seniors or people who are significantly more impaired than me

Wondering if such a thing even exists

Wondering if if it doesn't, does that mean I'll have to live with my parents for the rest of their/my lives

Memory problems caused by ECT - ten months without improvement, I suspect it isn't going away or getting better, which further hurts my chances of ever having a reasonable level of independence

Wondering how long it will be until my one and only friend calls off the friendship again, he's done it twice recently but then reconsidered. If he does it again, it'll be for good - I can't keep doing this back-and-forth thing.
 
Should I even bother continuing this friendship? I find I can't really get myself back into it, I'm just waiting for him to call it off again. And I feel horrible about it, but a part of me kind of wants him to so I can be free of this.

Feeling like I'm broken, like a vital part of me was never installed, the part that is capable of feeling real love. If I wasn't a nonromantic asexual, I could just love him the way he loves me and all would be well. But I am, and I can't. I feel horrible about it, but I just can't. Really, it feels like it's all my fault because of this inability to feel love.
 
Back to independent living, really wanting it but not knowing if it will ever be possible for me, lack of services to help me get there.
