kodos has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Default Empty Nest Syndrome


My friend is a single parent. She has two children ages 23 and 19. The oldest is married and the youngest moved away in July to start her career on the west coast.

I am becoming more and more worried about my friends' well being. She now has the house completely to herself and is growing lonelier and lonelier. It seems to be a no brainer that she is depressed. When she complains about how unhappy she is I try and make suggestions which are quickly shot down.

I have heard of Empty Nest Syndrome but is it usually this severe? I'm really getting worried. What can I do to help her?

Thanks
