Have you been to your gp? There's also self help groups online. Also mind are good for information as well as help.

Good luck

Start with your GP, local Mind group, samaritans ....

And do you have one person you can really talk to

Head up bro. Reach out to someone, either close to you or via your GP or samaritans. Failing that send me a PM, happy to talk with you. I've been in a similar situation in the past. Taking to someone helps alot. A problem shared is a problem halfed.

There is a lot of help available. Try Moodjuice is you want some online resources to look at.

Your GP should be able to point you in the right direction for some help.

First step is the hardest and even the fact that you are discussing it here is to be congratulated.

That’s an excellent resource with lots of advice

Link in with GP and local services and get qualified clinical advice and support, have a buddy (friend or family) and tell them how you're really feeling, lots of fresh air outside, find your particular coping strategies and be conscious of particular triggers for you -- everybody is different -- check out resources on Mind website, be gentle with yourself and be conscious that feelings are just that, not actuality but your current response to your circumstances and can change, talk to people and if you can't talk..be with people, eat well, sleep well, exercise like walking, mindfulness, talking therapies, find your useful "things", but above all else know you are not alone. You really aren't. And being honest about how down you are with others is liberating for them and you. Be buoyed in the knowledge there is support, others will relate and you are very much worthwhile. Hugs.

The Blurt Foundation have some excellent advice, CALM (campaign against living miserably) is good on men’s experiences, and Mind has its Elefriends forum.

Samaritans have a helpline - open 24/7 and free to call and you can discuss anything and call anytime. Please use it if you're in crisis.

That’s one thing I’ve noticed for a while now , eating and sleeping have gone out the window, and the worst thing is , it’s got to the point it doesn’t affect me now unfortunately
