THanks for the welcome everyone

Mrs_T_M I have a history of depression going back to when I was 13. The last three years I have been pill-free but before then i was on them for a long time. My GP would happily prescribe them again. I don;t know if counselling would help as i just finished a course of it and I still feel rubbish

Thought I'd see if I could chat to my GP about it all.

Speaking to your GP is definitely the way to go. They should be able to help.

I've been "depressed" since I hit puberty at 11, but I was only diagnosed two months ago (I'm 28 now). Never could afford a doctors visit nor the $10 per pill in the States, so I was never diagnosed. I hate pills, but I honestly wish I had done this years ago. One really good 'side effect' has been that since I'm happier and have less bouts of extreme depression, we've been bd'ing more! :j

I'm scheduled for a phone appointment with the therapy people to discuss treatment options with them today at 1:30. I'm a bit nervous, but I've had coffee, so I'm cleaning to keep my mind off things and to get out some of the insane energy caffeine gives me! :rotfl:

As much as I want to get a bfp, I also want to get my depression under control and at least enter therapy to have an outlet before the hormones start going whacko.

Still nothing really to report as of late. Still just waiting. I'm out of ic's, and the digital I have upstairs is going to stay in the cabinet until I get a definite positive on something else first!

Hugs to everyone who needs them, and sorry that I haven't really been around much. I have been lurking, just haven't really had anything to add. I've also started lurking on the over 12 months board, and the pregnancy boards (someone smack me for that!).

MAKES SENSE. So, yes, I've been using internet cheapies - I am waaaaay too tight to spaff £20 on something I will ultimately use to pee on.

Exactly! I will consider a digi (if the time ever comes) but generally I'm not in favour of spending that much money on things I'll wee on

Good morning Ladies

Still a high on my cbfm and no peak which is strange as I feel like i have ovulated. Will put another stick in tomorrow but if that's still high i think that will be the last one this cycle as i've used up 2 extra ones already. We have dtd a couple of times but won't hold out much hope this month.

Very frustrating for you loulou, I hope you get some answers soon

I would, but it would be very hypocritical... I spend most of my day on the pg threads . I have literally no idea why. I'm beyond excited about mrsj28's baby - I don't think she's been on there today so fingers crossed it's all going well.

Yeah bit much like the last time I tried my chart is nonsense. I'm too much of a restless sleeper and never really get 3 hours of unbroken sleep, sometimes I kick the covers off and wake up freezing, other times I burrow under them and wake up too hot. So my chart looks like the Rocky mountains. Should I disregard my AF temps?

Can you give the link to your chart?

Glad you got your bd in!

Hi everyone. CD11 here and no sign of the OPK going dark....is this normal when on Clomid? I found a calculator online which said having taken the pills CD2-6 I can expect to ovulate between CD12-CD17. Guess I will just keeping POAS.

Claire - how are things with you?

Sorry can't do one of my mammoth replies today, need to do some work x

Same here BabyMad - it's so annoying - wish I'd been using OPKs as well :mad:

I try to keep up with the ones I know from here. One in particular I'm wanting to cross stitch a gift for. Need to buy more aida first though! Glad that hubbie was paid yesterday. Means I can buy chilli powder, aida, and loo roll today. :rotfl:

I'm sitting here working my way through a pile of socks that need darning. I'm using yarn instead of thread this time to get them done quicker. I really have no idea how in the world men get holes in socks so quickly! I had two pair of mine and 5 pair of his to darn! :eek:
