31. Been there done that gained 40 pounds in the process
I absolutely made myself miserable when I first moved from PA to Delaware. I hated the job I had, I was losing touch with the friends I had from back home (well aquaintenences), I had end a relationship and I ate like there was no tomorrow.

A year of therapy and prozac help me get my act together (although mind you, I still have that 40 pounds to lose).

One of the greatest helps was DU and getting involved in politics. You have some great DU folks down in DU who are quite involved with politics. Make a post about a DU get together in your area and hook up with some of the folks. I'm glad I did!!! I made so many friends and I get together with Ramsey and Molly on a regular basis. And from the DU gatherings I found the courage to get involved with other campaigns in the area (Those Dean meetups and a local Peace group have added to my circle of contacts - although pick the candidate of your choice).

The fact you've posted it is the first step. Now get out there and get involved.
