    Westlife2009, the point people are making is that a matter of days ago you were insisting that you were depressed. Depression does not disappear just because you have a new idea! Perhaps you need to think about things a little more before posting?

    Cos there's no such thing as manic-depressive?

    Some people don't swing like a pendulum between emotional states?

    Not having a dig at you, but I think the questions posed in individual threads should be answered in those threads.
  • Good point dookar!

    Anyway, back to the original post! Does anyone know anything more about this New Deal Self-Employment thing? And whether you could go into an Ebay Business or something?

    As you are now on New Deal why don't you just ask them?

    For goodness sake, don't go putting such silly ideas in the OP's head!

    As someone with bipolar, I can confirm that there is nothing mild in either the lows or the highs experienced by those with the condition.
    Gone ... or have I?
  • Ok, i'll ask them the next time i sign on - next Monday. I do have my New Deal advisers home number, but don't think he'd appreciate me phoning him on a weekend!

    Just for those who think i'm trying to get out of New Deal, i stress again, i'm not - there is a self employment option on New Deal! ;)
