Support for people with Depression

Miroslav

Just a quick hello, which I hope finds people well.

Things aren't great, so i've refrained from posting as i'll just have another Miro moan.

Physically unwell. I just have this feeling not all is right, despite what GP said in a very unthorough examination.

Flatmate is not helping. Her attitude and unhelpfulness are helping tip me over the edge. I feel so ill, yet as per usual no-one is listening. I'm not sleeping and I feel like falling over all the time. Flatmate leaves all the housework to me and i'm too tired to do it.

I've had enough. I keep trying, but it just never gets better and more problems add to the current ones

Failure of my medical will just about kill me off. The result is any day now. I find myself just getting angrier by the second. I can no longer have a conversation with anyone without getting angry, they've finally pushed my patience beyond it's limit.

hi miro, (((big hugs))), sorry you are still feeling poorly, can you see another gp at the practise for a second opinion?
forget the housework, and have a lie down, or just sit and chill in front of tv. do u have a games console of any type, i find my ds invaluable in helping distract me from day to day stuff.
hope the results from the medical are positive, but if they are not, you could appeal, like our beachbeth did.
any time you feel like a moan miro, come on this thread, its what its here for, we've all been there, and understand.

hugs

Sam and I are going to Cribbs mall today to shop for a dress for Adam and Cat's wedding. Hehe. He's got the job of usher and is being made to wear a pink tie.lol.

Then tomorow we've got a Warhammer battle with Dan and Gordy. Wednesday ,Sam is helping Adam at work, Thursday is free and then on Friday we're gong to the cinema to see "The Hangover".

I remember this time a year ago. I was so scared of going out. I still am, but at least now I go out with Sam. Just need to work up to going out alone.

I've got called for jury service which is terrifying me. I've asked to be excused as Sam and family and I think I'm really not ready for anything like that, but we'll see what happpens.

Love and stuff.

My BIL was called for jury service earlier this year. He is on AD's and, although he has a job, couldn't cope with something like that. His daughter wrote back on his behalf explaining about his depression and he had a letter back saying he was excused from the jury service.

No one will mind you offloading on here. Im sorry you feel so bad and I really hope you get the right results for your medical. These "professionals" make you mad. You feel as though they have already made their minds up before they've even seen you sometimes. If you fail your medical please appeal and go to the Citizens Advice Bureau as I did. They were very helpful and put me in touch with the Welfare Rights who helped me win my case.

I may have to go back as I have no idea what it is. The pain I had was terrible the short time it lasted and I keep getting twinges. My skin appears to be very tender, so I hope it's external, but I can't see any difference, which worrys me.

I done some housework for a bit, I was only up cos Britney was on TV. Went to bed earlier and got about 2 hours the whole 9 I was up there

I don't have a console. It's usually the PC, the music channels and my cats that keep me occupied.

I will appeal the medical if it's a negative result. I have no real choice, I have too.

I'm going out with flatmate for a drink shortly (non Alcoholic) just to get out for a bit.

How are things with you today?

You are far too organised

Hopefully the jury service can be hit on the head. Don't think i'd be too crazy about doing that either.

I'll never understand how someone in an office, who has never spoken to you, can decide if you are fit for work. Even a Doctor on one 40 minute interview can't really decide. They should leave it down to GP's, CPN's and the like.

I didn't like the way he said I seemed okay as I 'got there on my own' (2 minute walk) I owned a mobile phone and he kept talking about my story and how calm I was telling it

I shall do my best to go to CAB and seek help should I need it. I can't just not appeal, I have no real choice.

The only bit of good news I have, is that the televison station Q for the last 3 weeks have played a whole week non stop of one artist.

First it was U2, then Green Day and this week it's Eminem.

I spotted on Sunday morning, looking through the week, that next week is due to be Britney week :j 21 hours a day for 7 days :j

Sadly flatmate and I have a routine, so I will only get about 10 hours a day, plus the adverts of her programs, so i've stocked up severely on VHS to get it all on, as I tape everything.

I won't mind being stuck indoors next week
