Discussion & help on depression & mental health related issues

Life’s a bit of a mess atm, being left in the lurch as my gf told me today she “needs a break”. Whatever that means. So I’m now spending Christmas alone. Tomorrows also 11 years since my dad committed suicide too, completely out of the blue. Best mate and massive Evertonian. Brave face needed for work tomorrow…!

So very sorry to hear that you are having a rough time. Today will obviously have been a tough day, my thoughts and best wishes are with you.?
 
Feel like I only post on here when I want to share which feels a bit selfish. I'll do better when things are less hectic!

Anyway, i finally got my diagnosis which is moderate ADHD. That means I can now get medication and support in adapting to how it effects my life on the NHS. Which is a weight off my mind.

GF has actually been really supportive with it since she realised her best friend's husband deals with a lot of the same issues I do. So feeling pretty upbeat this week.

Thanks again for all the support everybody. You're all special and I appreciate it.

Congrats on getting a diagnosis though, I thought it would be ADHD!

Just a thought though, have you chatted with your GF's best friend's boyfriend? See if he has any tips etc. whilst you're letting the medication hopefully work? Might be useful.

Ok, late night internet doesn't help the brain switch off.
An early dose of sleep doesn't help a solid sleep through the night.
Being pished off and having nowhere to put it isn't working, it's time for professional help. Go get on the CBT train and unburden what you are carrying.

It is the personal connection that allows it, words on a screen are no substitute.

Is it time?
