Discussion & help on depression & mental health related issues

I am still trying to be positive but it so hard. not a lot palliative care can do besides try to make things a bit easier with more drugs. I just feel so alone and weary.
 

I'm so sorry to hear this. Please don't feel alone. You have very many people on here rooting for you. And if it's not too girlie: hugs xx
only time I don't feel alone is on here, hard to tell family you wish it was all over.

Are you still taking the antidepressants mate ?

May be an idea to see about starting on some sedatives too, they'll help ease the anxiety.
anti depressant course finished and think it made me worse lol.

Hang in there mate
always do but it's hard
 
doctor and macmillan nurse should be visiting in the next few days to check my chest again, might be another infection. i'm on a course of antibiotics and anti sickness pills, but I am still heaving all the time and coughing up a lot of gunk, sorry for being so graphic, but it so constant and wears me out, I can't walk far and all I want to do is sleep.

Hi mate, I know it's bad at times and you feel alone as that's how I feel but I'm a manic depressive with bi polar and I struggle through the day sometimes ..Email me layliffe@hotmail.com

Glad we can be of some use to you.

From the family perspective, I remember when my Mum was on the way out. She was a fighter & not even Hitler could get her or her family! But, when the time came, we were all of the opinion that enough was enough. When she was read her last rites, I was able to whisper to her that she'd done enough & it was fine to let go. (...sorry, a little hard to read the screen for some reason...)

I'm not trying to be morbid, or suggest any course of action, but I want to convey to you that your family may very well accept what you are feeling & it's only natural to be this way. Talk to them if you can, give them a chance to surprise you.

;)
 
had enough now. just wish it was all over. can't go on feeling like this everyday.

I'm having a bad time too mate. You're not the only one my friend. Just hold on and things can get better.

I was once given a card - I know these things are trite

Accept a Miracle. Expect a Miracle.

I'm not religious at all. In fact the complete opposite. But please have faith in something - not sure if that's Everton (!!) or even fate and maybe tomorrow will seem better than today.

Morning mate, I was with a friend of my missus yesterday who is a Mac nurse. I asked her about sedatives re your condition and she said that in her experience they would help enormously. Mention something called Lorazepam to your nurse next time you see her ( generic name Ativan ). Obviously they made need to take into account the other medication you are taking - pain meds etc.

Hope your feeling a bit better this morning ?

Start of the season on Saturday, that's something to look forward to at least !!!!!!!!!!!
