It's all about lonlyness!

I am a married man in my mid-fifties, but I have no children to keep me company. For the past three years, I have been feeling very lonely and desperate, as my wife has been spending more and more time away from home. She has been caring for her elderly uncle, who lives alone in his house and suffers from various illnesses and disorders. He has cancer symptoms and other complications, and he is bedridden and unable to feed himself. His condition is deteriorating slowly but surely. Lately, my wife has been staying with him for weeks at a time, leaving me alone in our house. My loneliness and misery are growing deeper every day. I have also developed anxiety and sleep disorders, which affect my well-being and mood. On the nights when I cannot sleep well, my days are very bad.

Of course, there is also a lack of sexual satisfaction. I find myself spending more time on porn websites every day. I have many hobbies, such as drawing and writing short stories, but I cannot concentrate or enjoy them as I used to. I am always in a bad mood.

I need help!

I'm sorry I couldn't respond sooner, Tee. This is probably an obvious question but have you talked to your wife about your situation?
