Been thinking of you all.

Littlewing (and I by default) signed up for the Change for Life minute shake up. http://www.nhs.uk/change4life/Pages/change-for-life.aspx

It is really good and surprisingly tiring! Sometimes we do their suggestions for an activity. Sometimes make up our own (so we have just spent 10 minutes twisting with Chubby Checker).

Hope they can help Melly.

We've been busy doing bits in the nursery today. Tired myself out so bearded one let me go to MacDonald's drive through in my pyjamas as getting dressed is just far too much effort today!

Hope everyone is well

Just thought I would pop in before I go off to bed LOL!!!

I did not get up until 3ish and only to go to the shop to buy a load of crap !!!!

Been listening to Ted talks about happiness. Interesting.

Anyway all take care and get a good nights rest.

Yours

Thats why I put normal in quotation marks. I know there is no normal. But it has to match the other person. And if you can't meet in the middle its not going to work.

And that is what happened with my ex. I think he was just too scared to have a relationship as he won't be able to do what he wants. So makes himself pseudo busy so he did not have to see me.

Never mind.

Right now I'm wondering if it's too late for a bowlful of crumble and custard.

I've had a rivetting day trying to update my budget and file my paper mountain. I've got a week off work but the weather was so horrible today I decided to catch up on some jobs I've been avoiding for weeks.
Will have to do something interesting tomorrow, although I have no idea what, or I'll feel as if I've wasted my time off.

Melly, let us know how you get on, if you can.

Hi all,

This is the first time I've posted on this thread so hopefully I'm not intruding!

I've been suffering with depression on and off for the past 6 years (resulting in a suicide attempt at 17 years old). I've recently started to head back down that road which led me to that night where I sat in my bathroom and necked every single painkiller I had in my kitchen cabinet. I'm older now and although I don't think I'd make the attempt, I'm scared in case I do.
I have a partner who I've been with for the past 3 and a half years. I moved 120 miles away from my family to be with him which I don't think helps.. I've got nobody to turn to. His family are lovely enough but they don't understand mental health. Mental health to them is someone who's just being weak - which I know is not the case.
My partner has only recently started to understand what I'm talking about since he's started to become depressed.

I've found out in the last 2 weeks that he's not been going to work for a few weeks (not calling sick, but going AWOL). He didn't tell me until his mum blurted out that he'd "not been well". I'm upset and angry and just generally hurt that I've been lied to. I feel stupid saying that because some people get cheated on and abused and that's not the case in our relationship.. but does he think so little of me that he can't even talk to me?! Especially when I've been so open about my mental health and my past.

My mum was supposed to come down today, but unfortunately my grandmother isn't very well so she was unable to leave her (my mum is her main carer). I feel so alone - I've lived here for the past 3 years and have like 3 friends.. who I love to bits but they don't understand why I feel this way.. I'm 23 years old and all I want is a cwtch off my mum..

I'm sooo sorry this post was so long.. half of it probably doesn't make any sense but it's so nice to just write everything down and not have to physically talk. I feel like I shouldn't feel this way although I can't change my feelings!

Thank you so much for having this thread. If you help one person, you've done something amazing!

It is never too late for crumble and custard!
I've just made a mountain of pancakes. Think I won't sleep tonight the amount of sugar I put on!
