I work on a web site dealing with broken families, Mum's Dad's Teen's Children all in distress over divorce. The wars are going on in our very living rooms, and depression, anxiety, panic attacks, legal difficulties all cause some trauma to these folk. I have had Clinical Depression, burnout and panic disorder in the past, and am passionate to both learn, and give assistance. I attempt to redirect them to the best source of help. I am divorced myself, have 3 children, my philosophy is varied.I AM A CHRISTIAN for without God there is no reality, for we will spend the rest of life searching. Christianity isn't a religion, as religion is us... in search of God. He is indeed.... in search for us, as He is the Author of life, and knows our suffering.

My main interest has always been people, a Church Youth Director for 20 years, I am still enjoying learning to spell(balance my trumpet blast!) well I enjoy the beach, tennis, table tennis, people, gardening, writing, writing poetry, writing, ..did I say writing? Love my work, 1 day paid, the others volunteered. And as I have now seen the inside, outside, and within of depression, and still have it, I count it now as a 'hobby', takes its power away...a little. Humour is my thing! Powerpoint presentation which help me cry when I need to cry are a delight, and the positive and funny are incredible. I love to email, I love to learn, yet it still is difficult to be with the one's I love, my Family.Out of all my interests, people are the most interesting part of life. I enjoy looking at DVD's of travel, or the Universe . I think 'Uni-verse'is poetry in itself.For much of God speaking to us is in it, and His word contains so much poetry.

I would like to read what others are dealing with in depression, and try to feel at home, so my anxiety to share will be replaced by feeling at home hear.Clinical Depression has been my constant 'companion' for 13 years now, and the Dr.'s say , kindly,you may need to learn to live with it. I had a major breakdown after caring for two of my family who both suffered depression, panic attacks . Both between them attempted suicide 12 times.
Hi my name is colin (colindove)I am pleased to be amongst you each one, as we at least know where we're at. I have always been anxious, I am told it has to do with my early years of being separated from my Mother, as she had a 4 year on and of illness. My earliest recollections are of finding her , hiding in wardrobes and under the bed. She was a good Mum though.I was passed around Auntie's and Uncle's who were grand folk, yet no place I can call home. Depression is no'hobby'!
Abandoned by my wife because of my burnout and depression, I now see my 3 children on an occassional visit. They seldom come home now, and I live mostly alone with my cat, and very good neighbours and friends.Anxiety is a part of my life , and the fear of abandonment keeps me from relating to women especially. 14 years now of depression, and learning to exercise again, playing table tennis and soon back to tennis.I am divorced , and lonely, though I only give myself 2 minutes of self pity.

The earliest memories were of my Mother who because of illness couldn't cope with the 3 of us boys, and as I was the last born when she was ill, I would be continually looking for her. Many times my memory brings back the same images of seeing her hiding in wardrobes, behind doors and furniture and under the bed. It was terrifying, yet she was a good Mum, she just couldn't cope with a small child , and she treated me often as a girl , as she was disappointed I wasn't. The trauma has followed me.
I'm an Aussie having worked for 20 years in the building industry. Having continuing contact with asbestos sheeting and structural flooring in bathrooms laundries . It has been diagnosed 2 years ago and am at the point of the dry cough and occasionally coughing up blood. I have a good outlook, as I also have depression and anxiety challenges.My partner in the building industry died 3 years ago and my sister inlaw has only weeks to live. She worked in a hardware store in her early days.
