Lovely post. Thank you.

I had to take a mental health day today. I'm really lucky that I have a great boss, and I can tell him that's how I'm feeling. He's insisted I take tomorrow off too to give myself a break.

Always talk.

I was off Dec for 7 weeks with mental health, im very protective of anyone on here suffering as I know how bad it can be. Im lucky I talk to a psychotherapist weekly and ive opened up to a few friends on here too.

Its hard enough in normal times but right now it must be hell especially if youve got no one to talk to. Hopefully your thread will encourage more to open up OP and I hope you are ok too xx

I have gone through a lot the past few months i was in a very dark bad bad place.

Was thinking about well you no what i mean.

I was rock bottom

A very wise person told me ‘ you may be rock bottom but the only way now is up’

My trouble was i never spoke i dont show emotion nearly lost everything!

Im 3 months down the line now i got some help i spoke and i am in a very different place new me!

Best advice to anyone talk!! I found it easier to talk to a stranger rather than family and friends.

If you need a chat im here

Ive been there i wouldn’t wish it on anyone!!!

Thanks for that, I am what you would probably call a lost cause when it comes to mental health. I I have a personalty disorder coupled with complex PTSD, and before this all came about l had just had my latest knock back from yet another NHS service saying they thought l needed a higher level of support and counselling than the could over and was being referred back to my GP. I'm not haven't a gripe as l am used to this song, what l am trying to say is that it is heartwarming that kind people such as yourself are willing to offer an ear if ever l need one.

Thank you and stay safe.

Been through more in my life at 27 than I would wish on anyone in thier entire lifetime, have had real struggles and problems with all sorts of things, been close to and attempted suicide before but I struggled on and wouldn't wish that on my worst enemy, if anyone would like to chat about anything or just have a laugh or make a pal who they can talk to about anything in confidence and safety then please message me, no matter how hard things seem, talking to people (especially a complete stranger is the biggest relief to have)

Stay safe folks, and no matter how serious or deep or even just a general pal or chat give me a message

I just read the 2 posts above me and it made my eyes water, knowing how there just isnt enough support out there. Seeing two men opening up is overwhelming and emotional. I wish I could help everyone who suffers, I myself suffers from BPD, its so difficult sometimes. The OPs thread will hopefully allow more people to open up and those who suffer can maybe help support each xx

Lovely to see people encouraging this kind off chat! Been suffering with mental health myself for years now, and lockdown only makes that worse! Anyone suffering, speak out, whether that be to strangers, family or friends, talking can help take the load off your shoulders

Reached out to my work last week for help and they've figured I'm suicidal (I'm not) and not fit to return to work! I'm now registered with a psychologist and a counsellor.

Sounds like a good work place. I told my old manager I was suicidal and she told me to work harder, it’ll take my mind off of it.

Similar thing happened in my work a while ago. Hated the idea of seeing a counsellor but it turned out to be the best thing I ever did (after I got used to it) - pay to see her privately now even. So don’t be afraid to give them a chance.

I hope you are well though mate, take care

I'm still trying to get help from the people who are trained in doing so, bipolar, borderline personality disorder and abandonment fears are the main 3 I've been told I may have

Oh I had a miscarriage on my wedding day, needed surgery and she wanted me in work the next time

telling me to work harder to overcome depression is sadly, not even in the top ten evil things she said/did x
