Depression Support Thread

All this romance! Glad things are going well for some people. Beth, Pink, big hugs.

Sorry I haven't felt like posting for ages, it's not been so good lately. First I found out that I have anaemia again, and had to go for a colonoscopy yesterday. I was upset about this, and called the ex Mr S, hoping for some support, but he was a git and told me it was my fault I'm anaemic, because I 'don't eat enough'. This made me cry. Then a few days later he sent me a rather mean email, saying that he didn't want to hear from me (yet he calls me the same evening), and saying stuff like he never loved me but he expects to fall in love with someone else. Charming. Well he got his way, cos I don't want to speak to him again.

Nothing to with the amount you eat. Just your body is not absorbing enough iron. Tell him he is a prat.

Hi everyone, Ive just signed up to this forum tonight, id been reading the thread etc for ages now but just got up the courage to post!
I have had depression with me for the last 6 years, get no support etc from doctors, so struggle with it sometimes. Have good days and bad days so will be lurking about if anyone wants a chat about anything, will try to cheer anyone up who needs it on my good days, will be bending you ears on bad days
I hope i havent broken any rules about discussing illness...

Welcome Nicola.

Does anyone know how Incapacity Benefits work and what you do when they stop the benefit on the advice of just one unsympathetic doctor?

I told him he was a cabron, and that's much less polite :rotfl:

Beth, I think you have the right of appeal, have you been to the CAB?
