    None of us can give you accurate tailor made advice for you personally based on your post. I am not an arborist but was a mentor for people in my profession. If you think you may be depressed why not confirm it by seeing your GP. Google PHQ9, an assessment tool for depression. I would recommend in ascending order Self help books Mentoring Mindfulness Counselling/psychological therapy Medication As you can already see antidepressants have an unfair stigma (myself included until they worked for me) They are just a drug. If one had pneumonia one wouldn’t quibble about taking an antibiotic. Antidepressants are definitely overused just like antibiotics are but if they work you are laughing

    Agree with you eggs but 2 years isn’t a passing phase. Get help

    Mate. Try an antidepressant. It will either help or not so nothing to lose. They’re not happy pills but can make it easier to cope with all the shit that comes. If counselling, time and drugs don’t help get out. Life is too short I was in same position. Thought I’d jack it in and no fucking way do drugs or counselling. Before I jacked it in did the counselling , no joy ( still try it though mate) then reluctantly tried drugs and worked a treat. Happy to take a PM, am twice your age and know a bit about what you’re going through

    Exactly. The centre parties need to sort out immigration, tax, employment and fair pay to deny oxygen to extremists

    Like a politician is Hitler? Err... one in a million ( OK, 100)

    Hit it on the head. A referendum on free ale and a bj on a Friday night paid for by tax payer would get in. Although we hate them, the politicians and their civil servants are the professionals here. Leave the running of a government to them. The “people” know feck all. Let professionals do their job whether arborist politicians economists or what. “People “ can decide on what GP practice they go to but when it comes to treatment let the Dr decide

    I disagree. I totally agree with his opening statement. Didn’t have time to view the rest of his monologue but am sure it’s in the same vein

    Compared to more frequent more devastating storms, tidal surges, increasing extinction rates, dying corals, flooding, etc. Man cannot destroy the Earth, only the sun can do that. It will outlive us a million fold but who wants to breathe in filth, eat and drink filth and enjoy less animal life?

    Bollocks

    Ok. Had 10 minutes. Return the Earth to its original pristine condition so we could fuk it up again (but not in my lifetime) and banish all socially irresponsible people to Australia without the means to escape so the rest of us could enjoy ourselves

    Difficult to come up with something but whatever it would be it would be a better job than the feckless one/one’s we have at minute ( well, since the Big Bang)

    Hurricane woes... but N Carolina scrapped environmental survey 10 years ago re climate change and increasing risk of storm surges so they could build houses that are now in flood zone. Most US people in power aren’t not so stupid to disbelieve in climate change they just wanna make some money

    I didn’t go to Salisbury when I visited Stonehenge. Didn’t know about the world famous clock though. Kicking myself now
  19. westphalian
    ROFL. The famous city of Salisbury?FFS

    By your reply on the “peripheral neuropathy “ pic you ain’t. got a length[emoji6]

    or like this? the numbness, not yer cock.
  22. westphalian
    depends where the numbness is.
  23. westphalian
    Better make sure it’s not the start of Hand Arm Vibration Syndrome.

    The natural history of these things are to usually cure themselves in a year. Sounds like the bees prolonged it. Surgery is the answer for cubital tunnel if time and physio no help. Steroid injections no longer used for tennis or golfers elbow as although work in short term increase relapse rate in long term...apparently

    Just do it and tell any busy bodies to go do one
