You dont want to add obsession to your life, It would only confuse you more You have to keep busy, maybe getting a part time job, volunteer in an Animal shelter, do meals on wheels or volunteer at a Nursing home etc. I think it would help if you let God back into your life and go back to your Church.

You do not need any obsessions.  Get out there and do some volunteer work with something you like to do to help others.  helping others helps you in the long run lots more than helping them sometimes I think.  But I like to help if I can.

Jenn, you don't need neither you want a new obsession. Try and do as Darci13 suggested.  Also read a book of your interest. Meet new people, go out with your kids/husband. Try to busy yourself with new interest. Occupied your mind looking for new ideas of how to improved things around you. 

Hi Jenn your friend peoplelover is back to help you after his visiting run to relatives. Remember you can call me "lover" a term I do not share with many.

Go voluteer where you meet  happy but lonely people not sad withered up people.

Best way to become a loser is to mix with losers, best way to become a winner is to, well you get the idea.

Remember I am your AKA friend and as such we have a duty to each other.

Obsession somehow has a negative connotation, so maybe you are looking for diversions or hobbies?

Some of the stuff I do to keep my mind off the stuff that paralyzes me (as in, curled up in bed in the fetal position, blankly staring at nothing):

bowling, trying to play golf, making jewelry, reading, watching sit-coms (I like to laugh more than be scared or cry), swim, exercise at the gym (or at home), go for a walk, play with the dog, hang out with friends, Sudoku, Bananagrams, write letters, try to draw or paint (acrylics), putz around in the yard, read the Bible (sometimes I get a "workbook" for a particular book and study with that), go to church and Bible study, wash my car, take a bubble bath, play bejeweled or a solitaire game, sing (poorly), listen to music, play the piano (OK but not great), take some dance lessons (and you have a partner!).....

I haven't gone the volunteer route, but would like to.....I'm not a manicurist, but I may just take my polishes and nail files and visit a battered women's shelter like I said.  It would be nice if I had at least a part time job.

I take welbutrin daily to help with depression.  I have taken medication for depression for 20 years.  I accept that and I never abuse the medication.  I love being alive, and I am confident that good and better days await me.

A guy once commented to my dad, after a particularly difficult business day, "I guess today just isn't a good day", to which my dad replied, "Every day is a good day.  It's just that some are better than others."

Wishing you many "better than others".

mmmmm a new obsession you say, ok , how about being a volunteer for some group or society that gives people someone to talk with when they need it. An example is like a suicide or abuse hotline . Or then again, make me your obsession. LOL ... BTW , I see that u have a new avatar. they all look like great pics. If i increase the zoom, i can see you are smiling in the pics . LOLOLOLOL

Jenn -- You look so pretty in that composite photo. Only problem is that it's a little too small. I took my magnifying glass to it. (It may be my eyes Or my computer that's the problem) 

I just read bansizit ... I will see if I have Zoom. (I read from bottom to top)

Try flying small air craft. Introductory flying lessons . You well love it.
