Depression Support Thread

shazrobo

hi everyone, hope everyone is ok this morning.
i'm ok right now had a good talk to my cpn and doctor and councillor, and i have a 24 hr number that i can call at any time if i feel suicidal, or feel like i'm gonna cut again, they are being so wonderfully supportive, and i feel better for that. took ds out for a curry tonight, not had one for about 2 years, as i get scared eating out, was a bit anxious but coped, and was pleased i had done it, and son was so happy to be treated to a meal out too, so feeling positive tonight. now just need to stop the filthy smoking habit, only started again this sunday, so shouldn't be too hard, i have stopped a few times in past.
been to the alcohol clinic today too, which was positive, the doctor there was really pleased with my progress.

steph, sorry to hear that you got bit, i'd be very worried about the safety of the child with that dog around, dont know who you could report it to, maybe police? or social services?
something needs to be done, a lot of children are getting harmed or even killed by dangerous dogs. i know of a family who live near me, whose 18 month old child was mauled to death by the families pet dog.

week, glad that you have a friend that you can meet and talk to about your problems, so sad to hear of the woman who hung herself, because shefelt she couldn't cope. there should be more resources available to people suffering from depression. i myself have suffered for 13 years, and apart from anti depressants, have had no other help til august of last year, and then i think they only started offering help cos i had o'd twice, help should be offered so much sooner to prevent these tragedies

cat, glad to see you posting to let us all know how you are

horace hope you have better look tommorrow with the viewings

big hugs to everyone

well my dad has to take the ironing back tomorrow but this dog was atleast up to my waist and im 5'7! my brother had a staffie i knew he was dangerous but i wasnt scared of him he's been put down now as he attacked another dog

for some reason as soon as i seen the dog i was scared of it guess it was instinct.

did you enjoy your curry?? i love chicken korma or non spicy curries, iceland do nice frozen ones. well done for being brave and doing it.

Please give up smoking my OH smokes he really stinks lol im a non smoker but did smoke when i was 15 for a while. but it knocks me sick now and gives me a headache so do it for your health aswell as your kids

after not smoking for so long, i too hate the smell, its awful, only been having 2 or 3 a day and outside in freezin cold. kids hate me smoking too. after giving up alcohol for so long i got really down and couldnt turn to drink so started cutting my arms as a release, then after the cutting got worse this week, i decided to give in to the cigs, bad move. i will stop i'm making it public on here, after tommorrow i will smoke no more i promise :T loved my curry thanks, i had chicken dopiaza a fairly mild one too, son had the korma.
glad your dad is taking the ironing back for you, i would be too scared to go back there too

I'm always here, shazrobo, if you want to PM to talk. Cutting is a hard thing to overcome, but if we both take it a day at a time, perhaps we can overcome it. xx
