Daytripper if they were real friends they wouldn't ostracise you. Talking to someone on social media can be helpful, but, as people have said on here try not to put too much emphasis on you thinking you've been blanked. There may be a different less personal reason for them blanking you. There are lots of other forums for people who are struggling or feel lonely. We live in odd times and I'm not sure the world is ever going get back to normal anytime soon. For anyone of us. If your having distressing thoughts please talk to someone there are loads out there I promise and it is very obvious there are a lot of caring genuine people on here. See your GP if your mental health deteriorates and try if possible, not to put too much emphasis on social media. It has its uses but sometimes it's poisonous. Take care and try not to be too hard on yourself. You are valued, people need people and I'm sure you have a lot to offer to other people. Good luck buddy.

Earwig great post. The amount of time I've had a client see me and say " I'm going to stop taking my meds, I don't need them" my reply is always please don't stop, it's the meds that are working and keeping you stable. There's a cautionary tale earwig we all need to take heed of. Hope your wife continues to be fine. It's OK to question the meds you've been prescribed but ALWAYS speak to your GP first before even thinking about stopping them.

Thanks a lot for the response, I will probably ask to be put on 200mg as 100mg seemed to help a bit but not enough as I seem to need, I was addicted to Valium for a while which seemed to bring all of this on

Just wanted to share something. Good just to get it out but my wife has asked me to leave the family home today after a few uneventful years. I don't want to go and feel we can patch stuff up, but she's adamant. We've a 4 year old and I'm terrified how this will effect him.. My wife and I are on good terms, I just don't want to leave him. Breaking my heart thinking of the potential effect on my boy. Sad about our marriage too of course..

That's crap mate. Hopefully yous can work it out. We'll all be hoping and praying that yous can. Stay calm and stay strong brother.
On day 9 of self isolation with covid and its been a struggle. First 4 or 5 days were tough as was pretty sick . But improved now. But on your own all day every day is far from ideal.

I'm sure it is tough mate. How many more days have you left to do? Is it 10 or 14 the isolation. Glad you're feeling better though. You on the Internet all day? Daytime TVs rubbish. What's the plan after isolation? Keep posting all over the site, listening to some of the moonbeams on here will cheer you up even if you're just laughing at them and hopefully it'll make the time go in quicker. All the best buddy God bless and get better soon.
Im ok from monday mate .
It's hard put down the time for sure.
But look to have come out of it OK Healthwise although I was fairly sick last weekend.

You're on the last stretch then- Happy days. That's great health wise you're doing good. Is it as bad as you hear? How long were you bad for? You're right too much time on your hands is rough, we end up thinking too much and when you're feeling down that's never a good thing. I was off work for a few months at the start of this, it proper scared the shoite out of me I've a couple of kids with health problems I wouldn't let anybody in or out of the house incase the kids caught it. I was actually obsessive with it thinking if kids get it they'll not treat them properly cos they're disabled and then thinking if I get it they'll put kids in a home. Your mind is scary it can take everyone of us to bad places. But I'm glad you're on the mend don't be dwelling on the boredom you've come through this, sing to yourself lol we'll all get through this together so keep posting loads. I can give you mother in laws number if you want to torture text her all weekend as long as you're not in Ireland she'll think its me then lol. Seriously well done beating this and hope you're back feeling great soon.

Cheers mate. You'd think with the blues being top of the league this sort of thing wouldn't be possible.
Im in ireland so can't mate .
It was a severe enough dose . Totally wiped me for 3 days and still no great energy . But it could have been a lot worse

It seems us Evertonians aren't allowed to ever be happy mate. Any chance of getting the missus to go to relate with you and try and sort things out with a counsellor???Not meaning to pry mate but you mentioned a couple of uneventful years is there any chance she could have postnatal after your son was born.

Ahh well it was just a thought. If you're here in God's own country open the curtains and let the beautiful sunshine in lol. Get well soon buddy you're nearly there. 2 more days just.SLAINTE.
Witchdoc. I'm so sorry to hear that. Your 4 year old boy will be more resilient than you think. You know this already I'm sure but telling him you love him, will always be there for him will give him a lot of reasurence. I don't know how much your wife is going to let you see him, but you swing him on a regular basis will help him and do your mental health the World of good. Perhaps getting away from your wife will give you both time to reflect, and sort out a few things. You also know that your boy is the priority. I won't go into fathers rights etc m8 because it's not appropriate however, there are a number of options open to you if your stopped from seeing your boy, but I'm sure that's not the case. You will be going through all sorts mentally but make sure you talk to people if your mental health deteriorates. Your still his dad, he needs your guidance and support and your still a massive part of his life. As for your relationship with your wife, maybe a bit time apart will be helpful. Good communication between people is always a good thing buts it's often the first casualty of a relationship. I do hope you can find a way to be happy with your wife, but as far as your son is concerned try not to paint a bleak picture. You still love him and there's no reason why your relationship with him can't continue, as long as both you and your wife are reasonable and put his needs first, which I'm sure you both do. Good luck with things and remember, your relationship with your son really needn't change that much. Cheers.

Cheers for your words. Fortunately we are very amicable and she's happy with 50/50 split. I went through a bad experience with my parents when they split which has really effected me even to this day. I'm hoping I won't have to leave, at the minute I can't if I wanted to. Maybe we just need some space. I dunno mate. Only time will tell I guess but I appreciate you taking the time to respond
