It's so true in this day and age we want quick results unfortunately there not to be found with depression or anxiety.

I like it Eggs. Nice dose of reality there, but remember.

Life is never hopeless [emoji106]

Respect to everyone that shared their stories of depression. I'm amazed at how many people here have suffered it.

 

I sometimes feel that doing something for others gives me a "feel good" boost. I give blood and it always puts a spring in my step (it might just be perving at the nurses though).

Eggs, although my God fearing country bred Mother, never actually expressed it as such, I believe her innate belief was "life is not meant to be easy", and so she kept her chin up and carried on.

Or, indeed, despite my depressive moments, I have commented;

"Iffen anybody decided to shoot at me, I ud probably do my best to run"

i.e. I am definately NOT sucidal/ life is not THAT bad, yet.

So, be thankful & soldier on.

PS

Just back from the pub, where ;

(a) one bloke has bin chucked out of his v recently deceased partners home after 30+ years, like 3 days after she was buried.

(b) Another bloke was grieving ( as in, tears running down his cheeks) over the recent self inflicted death of a 44 year old Son.

So, indeed, my/our life is pretty good!

You don't understand depression at all do you.

I'm soldiering Marcus.

 

I'm well aware that I'm better off than many, I don't mean just financialy, but when ones head is so far up ones own backside it is hard to see the wood for the trees.

 

I guess it's hit me hard because I'm usually one of those 'happy go lucky' sort of people, although I might not come across that way in the written word.

 

I thought a lot about what skyhuck said about shooting that black dog. Mrs Egg hid our little Spaniel up and I ain't seen him since........ I don't think she had heard the saying before.

Do you suffer in the winter through lack of sun?
