Sorry you're feeling bad, Devil. It may sound like a really small and stupid thing, but you do ensure that you're physically comfortable, as in loose clothing, comfy pillow, suitable covering, not too hot and not too cold? Because although I do have nightmares anyhow, I know that sleeping in a non-comfortable situation is a surefire way of ensuring nightmares.
Willing comforting and caring vibes to you,

Hope I am not butting in.
Never posted on this thread before ,but I am really down at the moment.
Just made an appointment with the G.P and intend to go back on some anti depressants,don't like the side effects as I become so tired ,but I am a bit like a black cloud of negativity walking about at the moment and I have no one to talk to.
My mood is only being made worse by the fact my father is drinking so much,I can even hold a conversation with him.
My daughter got her exam results today my father was still drunk from the night before although I am not sure if he isn't just drinking all the time now.
I am so lonely,and feel a complete failure.0 -
Hello Whites,
You actually sound very sensible despite having to battle all kinds of things, to do something like making the decision to go on anti-depressants, and then actually make the appointment! As someone who has been there, I know how difficult it is to focus enough through all the cacophony and miasma to make a decision, and THEN to actually do something is a monumental task and a half, so well done there.
What were your daughter's results, and how do you feel about them?0 -

Feeling a bit better today ,I think everything got on top of me yesterday.
My Daughters result were ok but could have been better, as she is very bright,she was really upset and it make me feel awful as I was unable to make her feel any better and felt massive guilt ,blaming myself for them not been better.
I think I am going through my 48hrs of madness I get every month ,however I feel no joy in life generally and don't want to do anything but mess about with distractions on the computer as I feel unable to cope with anything else.
I manage to keep it together enough to go to work.
Doctors appointment next week,just worried about the side effects of extreme tiredness.
I know the tablets work for me but the tiredness it debilitating.
All my life I have felt like this and it only improves when I go on antidepressants.
Group hug sh1305 :grouphug: hope the stresser in your life resolves itself and you feel better soon.0 -
Sorry to hear some of you are going through a particularily bad time at the moment. Love and kind thoughts to you all xxxHere dead we lie because we did not choose
To live and shame the land from which we sprung.
Life, to be sure, is nothing much to lose,
But young men think it is,
And we were young.

Hi guys
Will read and comment/thank other posts but will update you on my life
I have been in a depression for a few weeks. Our son has crossed a line
We agreed he let us use his place on an occasional basis and my mum would pay half his rent so we could use it. He then announces he is moving in a girl he met a couple of weeks ago and says she will pay rent. She has no job and wants to get away from Wales. My mum says she is washing her hands of him for doing this to us and for being so stupid about this woman he hardly knows. He has an inspection tomorrow and he hasn't kept the place nice, so expect him to get a row.
We have been pssed off with his stupid attitude for 5 years now and my mum has seen the light now as well. Whether she keeps to her word is another matter and told he I would lose respect for her if she does as she was really upset and sounded very serious about cutting him off. We are very supportive to her and we all agree that cutting him loose would be beneficial all round.
We feel 23 years of our life have been wasted on our son. I have said I am going to be selfish now. I have done my parenting and now it's my turn to live how I want to live it.
I also had a cleanup on Facebook and one member who posts on here just had to give a nasty parting shot. If you are reading this, then thank you adding to my misery with your unnecessary nasty reply. I am so glad I deleted you now. Also I deleted a so called friend who dumped me 5 years ago, contacted me last year and never arranged to meet as I live nearer to her now and posts about getting drunk with her mates. I find it boring and she is no good to me.
Yes I sound bitter because I have invested so much in people who have sh*t on me/us.An average day in my life:hello: :eek::mad: :coffee::coffee::coffee::T:rotfl: :rotfl:

I am no expert in property but have lived in many types of homes, in many locations and can only talk from experience.0
