We both retired about 18 months ago and were enjoying the freedom to do what we pleased, when we pleased. We have a caravan in Devon and I had (note past tense) a very active social life through a couple of motorcycling groups I am part of and also loved just being able to get on the bike and ride, have a day out together etc. We are both feeling very depressed, claustrophobic and locked in, and because of our time of life, never knowing when our faculties are going to go downhill and whether we will be fit to resume our previous long awaited free life activities again. We're trying to be positive but there's only so much false positivity we can muster. I am having days when one minute I am perfectly fine (sort of), the next minute I'm in tears for no reason at all. Sorry for the chuntering, just about had enough now.
