Discussion & help on depression & mental health related issues

So....................... I do not know ........... where I begin to explain this........... I cannot even post in here............. anybody....... who would care to listen .............. pm me x
 
Really struggled the last few days at work so decided to work out figures last night, speak to the wife and see what the minium salary we can manage on.

I can actual drop 16k and we can still live etc. Sure, a lot of things would have to stop but we can both survive (I can even keep the season ticket :mad:).

So I've decided to go for the job at my level and if I don't get it I'm pretty sure I'm leaving. Take my money and then really think about what I want to do with the rest of my life.

Feel a lot better now.
 
last few times I came on this thread it was full of optimism and good feeling. I didn't want to post my situation and take away from that. now it's been asked I am lousy, the lowest I have ever been, I just want it over with now but I can't give up it would go against everything I am, catch 22 lol but I don't think it will be too long now. hope everyone is fine and keep up that fighting spirit:dance:

Keep with us as far as you can mate. Take strength from the fact that your courage in talking about your situation has provided much inspiration to many who need it. Even those not in need of anything can learn much from your courage, wisdom and humility.

Sadly you were dealt a poor card with your condition, but you were dealt other better cards in terms of the person you are. Your writings have been inspirational and will continue to be so long after you are not able to contribute further. The beauty of what you have written on here is that it will be a lasting inspiration and legacy to your courage and the friendships that can be built in communities such as this.

You'll never darken this place, you will always be the brightest of lights in this wonderful thread.

Never stop fighting and contributing my friend.

Youre allowed to say you feel lousy pal....youre going through the worst of times and a time that most people wont have experienced. And don't forget, in spite of that, you've still inspired many people on here, raised them up when they were low, or simply lifted their chins when they were having a wobble. Were only too glad to repay you ...its a given that were here for you no matter what. I hope you feel a little brighter today....don't lose heart.

Beautifully put. Just thinking out loud, but it would be possible to dedicate this thread in some way to @wbn61 once he is no longer able to contribute ?.

PM me mate if you need any support and advice.

I left a very well paid job ten years ago due it making me ill. We went from two wages to one overnight and survived. It's a bottle tester, but you can do it. One thing you'll realise pretty quickly if you do it, is how much money you spend on crap !
