I am spending it alone, my daughter isn't coming over and I really have no friends. I am off from work today and have the day but have no money to spend to go out or anything. I just feel so depressed and I didn't get any presents. I used to enjoy my birthdays when I was with my family but our relationship is strained and I don't see much of them anymore. I have been in tears all day and just want the day to be over.

Put on your sneakers and go down to the mission or soup kitchen. help out and see if you can serve lunch or dinner.. Go for a nice long walk through gardens or a pretty place....
Take a trip to a beautiful cathedral , go inside and enjoy some quiet time reflecting things in your life...
Light a candle for someone important to you...
Say a little prayer and thank God you are alive and well....
Go to the library and get a book on healing from within and something about spiritual growth, being who you want to be.. doing what you'd like to do...
Pick up the phone and call your mother and tell her you love her and miss her...
Feel good stuff doesn't cost money, but you have to be willing to make changes in your life . You feel alone now and are pitying yourself, get up off your butt and make something happen. Dry those tears and get going.....By the way Happy Birthday to you. happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear
... happy birthday to you......;-) ;-)

happy birthday!!!
Just don't get depressed...it will make you feel worse.I think the first thing you should is sit for your prayers and share your sorrows with god.That will definitely make u feel better and thank god for everything he has given you.Then,i think,you can make your self a cake or muffins.Try having a mug of hot chocolate...it's my favorite!!! it will warm u up.Listen to some cheerful music or watch some funny movie.And even if u have don't money to spend,u can go for window shopping.Or just go for a walk down the lane.Take a long,warm bath and light some candles around you.You can do with some reading too.If you wish,call some old pal.At the end of the day,take a long nap and wake up next day thinking that the day was not that bad after all!!!!!!

Why not spend it on a nice dinner for yourself? Since nobody's around, you can do whatever you want! Burp, fart, laugh so loud as if you own the whole world. No dieting for a day, just eat whatever your please, because hey, you're the Queen for the day! Birthday is a celebration of life. You get to live and see another day. There are millions of other people out there who is suffering from much worse situation. Count your daily blessing! Happy Birthday, honey!

Make yourself a cake. Look in your cupboard and see if you have the ingredients to make one. Or make brownies. Chocolate always makes me feel better!!
Take a warm, relaxing bath. Watch some funny movies. Do somethings that you know will cheer you up.
It's hard when you're older because it isn't the same anymore. Try not to let it get you down. And...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!
Good luck. Hope this helped.

I guess praying is one of the best way. Used this time to say a little grace to God. Thank Him for all the blessing in your life. Start counting one blessing from each year of your life until today. Then, ask God for what your really need. Share Him you sorrow and pains.
God always listen eventhough we don't think so. He loves you and cares for you.
Have a Happy Birthday!

what you can do is rest half the day and mybe do things around the house that you like to do and you also could go shopping and just spend all of your money on yourself, or you cou;.d go out and that would be a good way for you to make friends.

jeez. are you still depressed? are you taking meds for depression, or seeing a psychiatrist? seriously. i'm not being snarky. you've been this depressed for several months now, and you'd be better off if you get it treated.
