Hi mate, thanks for the reply. I went through a bad patch bud. I was diagnosed with Bi-Polar Disorder a few years ago and...well...I lost everything around that time. I split with my partner of 12 years, she took my 10 year old daughter with her n moved 70 miles away. My sweet fledgling business; EXPERT TREE CARE Ltd was wound down, my business partner developed bowl cancer n had to pull out, I couldn't raise funds to keep it going and in all honesty I was ill and not in control. I was struggling to accept the diagnosis and as a result of cycling acceptance and denial only took my meds sporadically which actually compounded the problem and triggered huge manic n depressive episodes. My previous employer took me back on straight away as a Foreman but eventually, as I slid deeper into my illness, I gave my employer such a headache for such a long time that in the end it was only due to my skill at my job that I managed to hang on to my job. Eventually my foreman position was given to another lad, I missed out on opportunity after opportunity that was always intended for me...and that made me worse. In the end I saw a job on arbjobs in Jersey n decided to just fly far away and rediscover myself, leave everything I knew behind and start from scratch. Best move I ever made. I am well, healthy and sorting myself out. I posted a comment on predators post on depression in general chat. Check it out. Should give you insight into what's been going on with me in recent years. Anyway, how are you? N thanks for the reply. Cheers mate, Chris.
