This thread is a continuation of THIS THREAD

Clinical depression is a recognised condition that affects people in many different ways often altering the sufferers personality and ability to function in a 'normal' manner. It can affect thinking, judgement, and social behaviour in ways that cause serious problems and embarrassment.

If the depression support thread on MSE is to continue it must be remembered that not all posters on this thread will always be able to express their feelings in a nice, sociable way.

If you find the posts of any particular member difficult to deal with then the ignore facility is available. Just as one person may not be in a place where they can post 'nicely', another may not be in a place where they are able to read said posts.

Please remember that this is a money saving site and the following should not be discussed

Medication
Treatments
Conditions


PM's are private and should not be posted in a thread

Please respect the fact that MSE allows this thread on what is a moneysaving site :)

Other places where help/support is also available

NHS Direct

Samaritans

Mind

Depression Alliance

No Panic

Fellowship of Depressives Anonymous

B-eat

OCD-UK

Equilibrium

National Phobics Society

    Having a crap day now.

    Tried talking to Mr C about adopting Mayo, and he wasn't that enthusiastic, and then started about leaving next month, we don't work together ... the only thing I had to say to him was to flip him the bird. WHY do men expect us to do all the work (with apologies to QB ...)

    Crying a bit now, first time in ages I've done that.

    Just found the new thread....So basically we cant discuss when we are having a bad day....I hope its not my fault the other thread got closed, if it is then I will happily stop posting to save everyone the hassle.

    Sports day went fine today but i didnt run lol, couldnt as that time of the month so just sat and cheered on. Luckily weathers been great and all the kids had a lovely time.

    Hope everyone is having a good day and has a great weekend.

    Hugs to you all xxx

    Heya Diamond hun. I think a new thread is started whenever the other thread gets so many pages, so I'm sure it's nothing to do with what we've been posting darling. *hugs*
