Support for people with Depression

Hi everyone,

sorry I haven't posted much lately, things were really bad and I didn't want to bring everyone down with me, but I have been lurking.

I hope you all have a good day, I don't particularly like the Bank holidays, but they come and go so I cope.

Speak tonight if anyone's around

morning all, still of cold, here, but feeling ok mentally. going on holiday with my kids, and my friend on monday, we're off to devon, never been before, but really looking forward to it.
katie, have a nice day relaxing
alison, hope your feeling much better soon.
kids are packing their cases as i type, leaving mine til tomorrow, always on the last minut. but saying that, i've made sure all the windows are locked before i go away, and i've changed the number on the house alarm, as well.
maybe i'm being paranoid, ex did have a key, and did give me it back when we fell out, but there is always a chance he may have had one cut, and i'm not taking any chances, changed number on house alarm, so if he tries it, he'll soon be found out.
hugs all

Afternoon!

Enjoy your relaxing day Katie, hope the weather as nice for you as is here.

Alison - hope you feel brighter soon, don't stay away, I know only been posting for a week but some days I just feel better for putting my thoughts down rather than just storing them.

Shaz, have a great holiday, I'm a bit of a last minute.com when it comes to packing. Is their a neighbour who will keep an eye out for you while your away. Does the ex know you will be away as well? Hope your cold clears up soon.

I'm not too bad today, although OH upset me earlier, he thought he was being funny and silly, but it just upset me, but he just carried on anyway until I was nearly begging him to stop which left me panicky. I just couldn't cope at that point. I've calmed now and had a sort of apology. Not sure what doing for rest of day, will be out later.

Take care

Had a lovely day with #1 son and his fianc!e yesterday. His fianc!e has just gone back to work after being off for some time with depression, but we find such comfort being with each other as we can share the experiences which are so often very similar.
Does anyone else find comfort in being around fellow sufferers?

I have no firsthand knowledge of depression but thought this might be helpful:
http://www.hungerhormones.com/mood.html

The hormones leptin and ghrelin were only discovered in the 1990s so much of the science is new. Read the home page and the rules if you want to find out how to get those hormones to work for you.

Thanks for that Mrs pbradley. Very interesting.

Hi Shaz, glad you've people looking out for you, hopefully you can relax on your holiday and not worry about the house too much.

Sounds like you had a good time Katie.

Raksha, some of my closest friends have also had depression and do understand what I am going through. One has been very ill and tried to end it all on a couple of occasions . Thankfully they are more settled but still have dark days. We are always there for each other.

Had a couple of hours with double trouble - my niece and nephew. Took them out on their bikes, then called in on my mum with them. They are really good to be around, forget everything when I am with them.

Will be going out shortly..hope nobody from work sees me after enjoying myself today, might question my depression again...:cool: lol!

If I don't get back on today have good evenings and hugs if you need them.
