    I hope your doctors appointments go well Sandy and Shaz. Sorry that your friend seems to be messing about, sh1305.

    Welcome to the thread, alison. A lot of us have been there and done that. Alcohol has a lovely way of numbing things but then makes you feel worse. Resolve to not drink today and look forward to feeling better tomorrow. Thats what I do if Ive drank too much, which thankfully doesn't happen often now.

    Thank you all, I'm normally really good at hiding my depression, I try not to bring others down, but yesterday was one of those make or break days, hitting the bottle was the safest way to go, thankfully it is a rare occasion, but the alternative was far worse.

    Back on with the smile, have a good day all.

    Thank you :) I hope it does too. He knows that I want to talk to him (actually, it's need - I need to know where we go from here) but he won't.

    Thanks for the reply Shaz, it's like the lesser of two evils, although I'd rather have gone without doing either.
    Sorry you're still unwell, I hope the antibiotics help you feel better soon.

    Thanks for the welcome mouse, I rarely talk on mse, but I will endevour to talk to you all. Look after yourself.

    Yeah, I'll do this I think. Not that I want to.
