A lot of people like that headspace app

 

Not aware of that, I'll check it out:thumbup:

I have battled with chronic depression (dysthymia) for the best part of 20 years. I find mindfulness meditation a huge help, it gives you the mental space and perspective to carry on.

Mindfulness is becoming more and more recognised and there are plenty of books you can read. The one I have found most useful is 'The Happiness Trap' by a chap called Russ Harris.

 

Best of luck TCD. Don't let it beat you:001_smile:

 

You're a classic example of how some of the funniest people are the saddest on the inside. Keep your chin up ( rather fatuous and easy to say, I know ), you are highly valued around these pages.

We are going to London in November so that my wife can take the exam to qualify to teach mindfulness courses to people.

It has worked for her so she is doing this to try to help the kids at her school and also an adult ed course.

 

I should add that with the money I've spent on kit this year I too will have made about £5 an hour this year. Hope next year is better. Have lots of work assets now but as said resale won't be worth that much!

Very kind words Felix thank you:thumbup:

 

I am completely fine. Over the years I have found coping mechanisms, primarily the aforementioned mindfulness meditation and the depression no longer defines me as it did in the past.

 

Just wanted to show some solidarity with TCD and others. It is an insidious disease as it robs you of the will to fight it, but fight it you can and over time pummel it into insignificance.
