  • Hi Everybody!:hello:

    I am sorry to read that so many of you are going through a difficult time right now: with sad anniversaries and memories, circumstances and hopes unrealised.
    It is the Winter Solstice, after all, the 'lowest point' of the year - and it is normal to feel lower than normal.
    Very few people who "seem sorted" (to quote Miro*), actually are, when you scratch below the surface. If you are "unsorted", you are in the majority!

  • I am finally plucking up the courage to post on this thread in the vain hope that once I have written things down they might start to feel better:rolleyes:
    I had a Breakdown some 3 months ago and until about 10 days ago thought that the new meds were working. But I know feel as if I have been plunged back into the darkest of places with nowhwere to escape too. I can sleep I cant go out I just want to ............................ oh I guess I just want the old me back. I have to learn that the old me has gone and come to terms with the new bionic me.I feel angry, resentful and shamefully murederous at times.:mad:
    I know all this sounds pathetic and there are people far worse off than me but I am finding everything so darn hard:mad:
    :j I have a persecution complex. Everytime I pass a shoe shop they persecute me till I buy them:j
  • Gillianh2, im glad you have plucked up the courage to post here. i admittiedly havent been around for a while, but i can assure you that everyone here is really welcoming and lovely. I certainly find that writing down my problems have helped me, being apart of a circle of friends who are very much there for you when they have their own problems ( which are far worse than mine) makes you feel that you are not alone in the world.

    Perhaps you could go back to the Dr's and let them know youre meds arent helping you anymore, i know you said you are finding it hard to go out, could you try and have someone to go with you?

    Lots of love to all who need it and hugs to all too.

    H xx

    hi gillianh2, you are amongst friends here, i write a lot down and it really does help, and it does get better, promise. meds can take longer than 10 days to work, and a lot of them say they can make you feel worse before they make you feel better.can you get a friend to go with you to go back to your gp, as fantastico says?
    big hugs
