Feeling Lonely with Depression: Any Suggestions?

I've been depressed for many years. I take medication but I feel most of my problems are because I'm lonely. I'm single, have Type 2 diabetes and I've lost both of my legs above the knee. Does anyone have any suggestions for what I can do to make myself feel better?

sitting in the sunshine even for five minutes gives me a little serotonin. although it is hard for me to go outside at times, so i’ll just open a window instead. i don’t have much advice on meeting people because i don’t really have any friends, but i’d say the fact that you’re even on here telling your symptoms is a start.

I pet kitties 😻 and I count them. I'm on Zoloft if you want to talk about questions.
