Morning all, how are we? I guess it may have been a difficult day yesterday for some for all kinds of reasons, sending love x

I’m ok, I did have a bad night during the week last week so bit the bullet and asked the doctor for the meds that she’d offered me in the past that is declined. I’m only taking them as and when I feel I’m really struggling but it’s nice to know they’re there. I’ve been procrastinating badly over an assignment for uni for the past week and have missed all the nice weather trying to get it done, but it’s deadline day today and I can’t wait to be free (until I start the next one!)

So how are you feeling?

xx

I'm so so. I had a nice weekend but now I'm back at work with a poorly laptop and car. It will be an expensive month I feel.

I used to love deadline day! That weight off your shoulder!

Good for you getting the meds. I did the same thing earlier this year and the meds have been going well except for the one frustrating side effects.

I’m a bit meh at the moment. Struggling with confidence. Writing has been helping though.

Well done on getting the assignment done .

Hope folks are doing ok in general.

Glad you’re ok and thanks for saying that about the thread, it was really well received when I first started doing it a few months ago but I was away for a while and people don’t seem to have been as interested for the past three weeks, I wondered if it was still worth doing it x

All well. Work from home today. Tea and new way of working is making me more productive with my time. X amount of time working then x amount for a mental wellbeing break

Morning Lou, sorry to hear you had a crap time recently - but glad you felt able to ask for the medication. Give it time to kick in.

I'm okay today, just getting over Covid so working from the bedroom and not in the good way. But feeling positive.

I’ve been feeling super low lately, just can’t seem to shake this feeling of misery in a sense. not really told anyone cause I don’t quite understand it myself.

Been feeling a bit lonely too. I have many friends but most have partners kids and I guess I feel a bit disconnected from it all/them in ways.

I want a pub/meal/cuddle/sex friend- does one exist

Anyway, went for a cycle on Saturday and that definitely helped. It’s a good change to be away from technology and clear the head- and of course get back in shape.

Here’s to a better week hopefully

I kind of keep wobbling along. Been on the anti deps for about three and a half years now, fairly low dose but it just helps me stay balanced. Four and a bit years since my mother died and lots of bloody awful family fallout.

If you need meds then there's no shame in taking them.

The phrase going through my head at the moment is what's the point

What's the point in carrying on, what's the point in my life, what's the point in trying to change and improve when I don't see a better future

I'm a little down today after hearing some tragic news

I know I'll be ok but if others are struggling speak to someone anyone ...you can chat to me if you like ..just don't struggle on your own.

It’s a nice thread, and there’s a lot of wise, interesting people on here when it comes to MH and support.

It’s hard, I know, but perhaps try not to place too much emphasis on how many responses there are. That way lies…..stress and doubt!

It’s so hard to say online - sometimes things are really popular, other times not, and there’s little rhyme or reason to it, often.

The thread might just help someone sometime - that, in itself, is a good enough reason for its ongoing existence .
