Thanks FF... we will see what happens. Counsellor seemed ok today, I just need to get my head past the fact that just because I am seeking therapy doesn't mean I am a failure at coping with things. I guess the stigma of it is still too much for me, and I still struggle with the idea of depression even though I am clearly suffering from it. I suppose I'm one of the 'life's a b1tch, deal with it' type people but I know it's not always that easy. I've always just shoved everything down (although I've recently been aware of it affecting my attitude towards certain things and tried to acknowledge it) and I suppose it had to re-appear at some point, I guess now is better than later and means I can face things head on in the future. :T Work have been really good and are going to arrange my shifts around my appointment time which is a relief.:o

Nothing wrong with seeking help and acknowledging that it's needed. I've been in therapy myself before and I gained the tools from it to cope a lot better. I was never diagnosed as having depression but I certainly had problems coping with my life - such as it was. However, if you do have depression, it's important to know if it's physical (caused by a chemical imbalance) or psychological/psychiatric. If it's the former then counselling can only ever be a partial solution. If it's the latter then it is often true that the way we view current life events can be shaped by things that happened in the past that are seemingly unrelated. Change that viewpoint and you will become a stronger, more fulfilled, happier person. It's unlikely to be a smooth path but is well worth the journey.

You're not missing anything - I caught the Stirling but missed the Perth bit somewhere along the way. It's certainly getting early though.

Hi Pyscho! :wave:

You are not a failure, so please don't think that. More people have received counselling/therapy than you realise, and a lot more who haven't had it, should.

I went for counselling once and found it really helpful. It helped me to see things from a different perspective and if I could afford some private sessions right now, I would go. Nothing in particular is getting me down, but it's been quite a year with extreme highs, extreme lows, death in the family etc. It's a lot to make sense of, you know.

Where are those dodgy hugs.....:grouphug: there we go, those are for you!

NID - 500 pm on weed? How in the world do you find the time to work??? lol 50pm is sufficient
