It's okay to moan here. Don't worry about it - it helps let the feelings out.

Some genderless hugs for you.

Sorry to hear you're feeling so crappy. I wish I could cry more as it helps as a release.

I would be tempted to call GP and ask for an emergency appointment. Try and see if your GP can get you in contact with a CPN. If things are really bad get someone to take you to A&E or walk-in centre. Often it's easier to talk to these things to strangers. See if there are any local support groups although I appreciate it's probably too hard to go out and meet people at the moment.

Depression does want to isolate you and prevent you from doing any activity. Unfortunately these just make the condition worse - it's a b****** like that.

Try and do something small - e.g. make a cup of tea, get dressed, get shaved / showered AND give yourself CREDIT for doing it. Don't try and do too much - little steps at first.

I know it's very hard as I've been in the same position too many times myself.

It will get better but it will take time.
The pain will pass.
There is a light at the end of the tunnel but you might not be able to see it (or somebody's borrowed the bulb )
There will be setbacks on the road to recovery. Try not to get too disheartened by them.
It is worth it. You have a lot to offer.
You have been brave to admit you have a problem. You have also been brave to come on here and talk about them. Please take some heart in this.

Hi

Didn't sleep last night till 8am. Feel a bit odd now

I want to avoid my husband and no I don't know anyone I can stay with. My mother is horrible to live with. I don't have any friends.

I am going to have to pretend to like them till I can go. It is going to be difficult. I am so glad I have the support I have on here.

Big hugs to all who need them and thank you to everyone who have sent theirs.

Ethel - He could well be depressed but he needs to admit it to himself and take action.

I have to get to Christmas, then new year, then as long as it takes to sell the place and move out. I foresee it being around April before there is any action, if I am lucky:eek:

I hope your shower gets fixed today, it is a bonus if he is hunky too:D

Miro - I often write down my different personalities. Helps me get to know my alter egos.

Miro and Blinky - you are both the loveliest guys I have encountered in recent times. Carry on being your lovely selves, your g/fs are very lucky!

FG - hope you have a good day. Well done for making it to day 5. Hope you are investing your savings wisely like a good MSer!

CPN = Community Psychiatric Nurse.

Your GP should have access to one, possibly via a crisis team. Push for access to them, you need as much help as you can get at the moment.

Hang on in there.

Hello you wonderful people.

I know I haven't been around for a while to give support and I'm sorry. It's partly because i'm too messed up to be of use and partly because I know someone who posts here and have ben trying to not intrude on them.

But I am down, down, down.
I lost my job two weeks ago - no jobs in what I know anywhere - entering the maze of benefits. Feel I need to retrain but don't know what to do.

I've had back trouble for over a month (parting gift from my employers lol). I'm under a physio - i have to do exercises 3 times a day and go for a 2 mile walk. Hate it and feel like it dominates my day.

I'm hurting someone I care about (or maybe not - I don't know for sure)because it is the right thing to do and I feel terrible because of it.

I don't feel I can allow myself to be happy because my life is such a mess. I have no real friends and I feel isolated and futureless. I'm discarding my hobbies due to my back and money concerns. Just want to go to bed forever.
