Discussion & help on depression & mental health related issues

I come out of thinking it doesn’t but then usually I get home and end up in bed drained mentally so it must have an impact . Also certain days after it I feel like Very bad mentally and it comes out of nowhere. But as the fella says to get better you’ve got to go through that .

Hi mate, my mum got referred to EMDR after witnessing her partner die of a heart attack, she said it helped her massively.

Hi everyone. I'm not sure if this is the right place for this but don't really have anywhere else to turn at the moment.

My wife have birth to our 2nd child on Wednesday night, it was a difficult birth as she has the flu at the time. It was all made slightly more complicated by the fact that my daughter (2 years old) has has been unwell aswell.

Any way everyone is back at home now and I just feel completely overwhelmed. I'm doing everything I need to do, night time feeds, caring for wife and daughter and bits around the house but I can't get my head straight.

I feel as though I should be overcome with joy and the fact that I'm not makes me a bad dad. I was just wondering if anyone else had similar feelings after the birth of a child.

Congratulations, but if available get the mother in law in to help as well, they’re brilliant at it.....
 
Hi I was struggling for quite some time with mental health issues. The synthetic drugs were really messing me up and when I realised I'd been taking double dose and my doctor just said nevermind and prescribed me the higher dose isI been accidently taking without assessing me I knew this was the wrong path. I know it's a bit out there, although like cannabis oil for other illnesses it's now getting lots of credit from clinical trials, I've been taking psilocybin and I cannot tell you how my life has changed. I don't suppose anyone else has tried this at all. There's plenty of research online if anyone's interested and I'd really like to discuss other people's experiences if they have any. Thank you

I know you mean well but I have to intervene mate.

As you say, one particular study by ICL found promising results, however they “stress that it would be dangerous for patients with depression to attempt to self-medicate.”

Currently as a result, it’s not really something I would recommend.

Condolences mate. Today is the 8th anniversary of my mums passing. Time is definitly a healer but you will go through the whole range of emotions, grief, anger and pain will run a road through you. I felt guilt at laughing at things after my mum had died , but then you realise those are things that made your mum love you so much and vice versa. I know you have to be strong for your dad but make sure you take time for yourself to allow the feelings in and out.

Thanks mate. There are many other studies which favour this and I am certainly not saying it's a cure all. As with any medication I don't think it works on everybody and I imagine it has it's dangers. Im certainly not encouraging it either. It is legal to use in Spain where I live too. I know lots of people who have had success with this. I also know a lot of weirdos who I would say were not a success. I think what I wanted to do was see if anybody else had any experience and how they felt about it.

I suspect no body else has ever taken it or heard of it, due it not being available on a script in the UK .

What does it do and how does it work mate ?

I must admit, I`ve never heard of it.
