Oh, man! I am sorry to hear that.
...Severe depression is part of why I take happy pills.
I take FOUR different psych meds and a supplement to be sort of optimistic and happy. I also hardly ever drink, because I note that booze causes me to feel more depressed over the next couple of days.
...I get online and whine. I have friends to complain to. I work out-or at least I am supposed to! I eat a really nutritious diet. I take vitamins.
As you live in Britain, you might want to be taking vitamin D supplements, it may really help your mood? Probably will not hurt.
You have to treat yourself very kindly. You may not believe you deserve kindness, but you do.
...I had hoped you were not here because you did not need it here, were doing very well. Missed you, mister. You're a good guy.

Which is all the more reason you should be reaching out, Alex. This is not a safe neighborhood to wander alone. We are here for you, Alex.

Good to see you back. You have been missed.

Nice to meet you Alex. I have been here for a little over 3 months. Being on here daily or as close to daily as I can has helped me tremendously. I am sorry you are feeling bad. Hopefully we can talk and get to know one another better. If you need somebody to yell at, I am always willing to listen. I am better, but oh boy do I know exactly how you feel. Hang in there, ok.

Glad you are back. Can you get to a therapist, to a doc for meds to help you get back on your feet?

BTW...a couple of things I am given to understand? If you are getting benefits, insurance is dirt-cheap in the UK and may get you access to better treatment.
MIND and other assorted community groups may have more to offer as far as support groups go.

( My guy once said of his NHS treatment team: " They couldn't organize falling down a hole!" )

Sorry to hear things are going so badly for you. I know the feeling of being so depressed that I cant be bothered trying to do anything to help myself but am content to just wallow in it. I also know that it is possible to get out of it and once you are out of it you realise how worthwhile it is to be functioning better.
Wishing you lots of strength to carry on and find contentment in life.

Glad. To see you. We have missed you. I'm sorry you are having a hard time getting out of bed. That is a challenge for many but it is o e of those things that you can overcome. Get involved in something that you love it will help.I know it does for me. Keep coming here for support too.

Just glad to see you check in, Alex. Gentle support.

I am also happy to see you. And very sorry that life has been so rough for you. I very much hope to see you find the right kind of support and find healing.

Thanks or the kind words and support everyone. When I'm feeling really down I just shit off from the world, not the type to open up and express my feelings to anyone... Which is why I haven't been around.

Dealing with terminal cancer as well, but I think that's a god send to me as it will all be over soon enough.

Don't usually shit off from the world, more like shut... :D haha

HI Alex , good to see you again. We are here, sit down and put your feet up.

Alex, do you have cancer?

I do, Kathy

Ouch! That terminal cancer sure adds a snot ball to the wad!
