    newlywed, I'm sorry to hear about the problems you are experiencing while trying to buy a car. It sounds very stressful. Have a (((HUG)))

    slowlyfading, I bet you look great already :) Please diet safely. Are you exercising as well? I think newlywed and gertie have made some good points in their posts. Look after yourself.

    mclaren, If you're finding that mirtazapine isn't working why not go and see your GP and see if he/she will prescribe you another anti-depressant to try.

    Katie, It sounds like you had a lovely day yesterday. You seem to get on really well with your parents :) Enjoy your lunch today.

    :hello: Gillette, I hope you managed to have a good time while you were away. The all-you-can-eat Chinese sounds yummy :) (((HUGS)))

    Good afternoon everyone,
    got some sleep of sorts,not feelin so down,am going to do the dreaded plastering this afternoon,should be done by 6pm.

    just thought i would mention something that i rarely discuss,
    i have issues about the darkness under my eyes and it does my head in,
    for years i wouldn't look in a mirror,wouldn't have pic taken and worn big sunglasses,now i just accept that it is the way i look ,genetic( both mum and sis have the same appearance) plus the fact that i have had sleeping probs all my life(also mum and sis have sleep probs as well)

    But when i weighted 17 stone instead of 12 odd it never bothered me.

    Some people mentioned they were doing CBT,i had six months intense
    CBT followed by 8 months group psychotherapy, damned hard work and painful but well worth it (personally speaking)

    Kind Regards
    Andy

    :hello: andipandi, I'm glad to hear that your mood has improved. Hope the plastering goes well. Sounds like a hard task.

    Perhaps you were finally able to accept the way you look because over the years you have become more self confident. I think a lot of us here hate the way we look and so can kind of relate.

    I hope you have a good day.

    Good afternoon everyone.

    Hope everyone is okay on this wonderful, wet, damp day.

    I didn't get up til 10am :eek: lazy mare eh?

    RBK hope you are ok. I hope your positive review has given you a boost.

    Katie - Hope you are well. I watched a bit of Kate & Peter the other night and I have to say I do like their down to earth attitude.

    McLaren - Hope you are feeling better.

    Hope it's hotter where Flis has gone!

    Hello to everyone.

    Am coming down to earth now the appeal is over. Feel very lethargic and down again today but I am wondering if that's because I slept too long. Mind you, my age doesn't help. Soon I'll be having afternoon naps on a daily basis.

    My partner and his boys are coming round for dinner this afternoon. That should keep me awake.

    Take care all

    Sorry to hear you are feeling a little down. Perhaps having your partner and his boys over for dinner will make you feel a little better :)

    Have a nice day. xxx

    I am looking after myself, thanks for your concern. I walk quite a lot, so that's my exercise at the moment. :)

    Hope everyone is having a good afternoon.
