That woman sounds so horrible, and I don't know what you of all people, would have ever done to her to make her act so mean around you. I have no idea what to suggest to you, as other people have already offered great words of wisdom, but am sending some big (((HUGS))) your way. keep that chin up sweetie xx
hi hun
thank you
I think as people say, she sees me as vulnerable, maybe even fragile at times
she just likes the power, but in my opinion, if ya have to pick on people already fragile, then ya not the one with the power.

I'm not going to read all that has been posted since I was last here (Seems like ages, but I think it's only been about 10 days) I'll post to anyone who has posted to me when I next get back here......maybe tomorrow, but i'm in the middle of 3 anniversaries at the moment.
Anyone with any positive news? However large or small.
I read that someone has been saying naughty things about people in this thread.
I don't know what exactly has been typed, but those uneducated in the field of mental health should really think before they push the 'post' button. I read that this person also says they work in the mental health field (through this thread and your posts). It's a very easy thing to say that from behind the PC screen and is to be taken with a pinch of salt. They are probably just an angry person looking to take their disappointments out on people they think they can upset, so don't rise to it, as it's what they want to satisfy their needs.
Everything written on here can be misunderstood. I often go away for a bit, being one of very few males here and when the anti male comments come around, I just tend to slip away for a bit as I don't need them. They are often throwaway comments from people feeling low, but I could either challenge them (not wise as I don't want to upset anyone), ignore them (but then ignore those peoples post as well and miss something important) or just not post for a bit until those people have had their rants and are over it (until next time). The crazy thing is, I appreciate alot of men are good for nothing la-de-da's, but by generalising, it's exactly the same as someone who generalises about Mental Health. Negative feeling makes people stay away. If I start to think people are saying 'my sort' are this and that, I go somewhere/do something where I get something positive, rather than hang around negativity, even if I don't get offended. That may sound odd in a depression thread, but when something goes right for someone, it's worth reading about, but if all blokes are this, all blondes are that and all people with this disorder are the other, then i'd sooner go sort out my Mcfly collection (I don't have a Mcfly collection, but you get the point...) :whistle: that weirdo with 5 colours in her hair :whistle:
We all judge, rightly or wrongly and we all say things that we may not mean to upset people, but do. My opinions on women in relationships is very low, although I know there must be decent women out there and i've met one or two, but that's down to personal experiences, just like any judgement/generalisation.
We all judge and we are all judged. I try to judge as little as possible, as I know being judged can be a not nice experience, but we all do it
Like I say, i've not read this persons comments, but it's best to either not respond, or if you're feeling mischievious like I often feel, turn the situation around and start asking them about their mental health (Why do you have so much anger around mental health? Why are you so negative? What experience has made you feel so angry?) The person won't like it and once they start showing aggression, you have a moral victory. Just don't rise to them. Alternately they may blub all their issues to you and you'll have done someone a big favour (Unlikely, but never be surprised by the power of being nice)
Anyway, enough of that, I tend to blabber on.
It's nice to be important, but it's more important to be nice! (Scooter moment!)
Other than that, nothing more to say. I won't bore anyone with my life any longer as I know it bores folk.
Oh......Britney's new single 'Break The Ice' has hit the music channels. Sadly, it's an animated video (Anime, or whatever the Japanese thing is) It's not either of the 2 or 3 i'd hoped she'd release, but it's catchy enough. Far from my favourite though and Britney absent from the video saddens me
I notice people like Metal.........not really my thing.......I like something a little Rocky - MCR, Def Leppard etc and I like Indie (Blur, Pulp, Suede) etc and good pop tunes, but my main interest is Techno/Dance/Trance etc - I guess that's the Central European in me
Really enjoying Scooter's new song 'The question is what is the question' and Clubland TV - Sky Channel 378
Although Britney wins hands down over anything
Enough from me, if you've got this far, you deserve a salmon.

Heylo lovelies.
I'm all up and dressed.I have an appointment with my project worker today and I hate sitting around in my PJs for too long.
I still have a headache though. And now my back is really tense and sore.
I'm really on edge and panicky today. I hope that if I do have a panic attack it's at least at hunts.mind. I can't deal with another one on the bus or in the street where people are staring at me.
I hope you all have a good day.

Morning all,hope everyone is good and well this morning.
Honesltly some of these ppl that go on Jeremy Kye make me laugh.When I see some of the ppl on that show,Im grateful that I am who I am and have a lovely son. I tried getting littleman asleep last night,he wont sleep.I really feel for him as he must be knackered when he goes school.He has a app with a family therapist in a few weeks,it will be the 1st time and I feel a bit nervous and scared about it.I have nothing to hide but I am worried if they look into my depression and then try and label me as unfit coz Im not unfit, im a good mum and very loving.
I went to the council yday which was a waste of time.They accused me of being late when I was 10mins early.They tried to refuse to see me bt I stood my ground.They said they may not they will but may help me try and find a private rented property.Why cant they just help me when they know the flat Im in is not suitable?Its ok for them, they have jobs and homes,Im the one that is putting up with all the crap in this flat.My landlord still hasnt given me his 2 months notice he said he was going to give,he keeps making lots of noise which scares my littleman.
My course starts on 30th april, so I applied to do a short course on maths to brush up my skills.I got to go today and do an assesment to see which maths course I should do.Its like being back at school lol but I know it will benefit me as I will be able to help my boy when he gets older with his homework should he get stuck.Im back on smoking again but have made an app with the smoking nurse so I can quit again.Smoking is helping my stress levels at the mo but deep down I know thats just an excuse.Anyway guys, better go and do some hoovering as it gets really dusty in here.
Hope all you at work have a nice calm and stress free day at work and all those at home have a nice chilled day, chat soon and take care
Hugs to u all xxx0
