    i hope nobody will mind me joining this thread. just feel really in need of a friend.

    ive suffered with depression on and off since i was 14, then have had severe post natal depression when my son was born 3 years ago. still on the tablets.

    ive just split up with my OH for the umpteenth time tonight because i cant take it anymore. he constantly puts me down and says snide comments about me having to take to take tablets. comments such as " oh go and take one of your happy pills" whenever we've had an agrument were extremely common.

    sitting here feeling really depressed, not about splitting up but in general. sitting here crying again. dont know what to do, so worried about money etc and what to do for the best with regards to my son.

    thanks everybody. just spoke to bf on the fone told him how i felt. he told me how hes felt also. feel a bit better. i dont know sometimes im absolutely fine then other times im a bag of nerves or dont want to talk to anybody at all. depression seems to cripple me at times. its not a nice feeling, but try describing it to someone who doesn't suffer from it is impossible

    Hi guys!:hello:

    I only put it down for a minute!confused1.gif Come to think of it, I seem to have mislaid Pieday and most of Caturday too.confused-smiley-013.gif
    Oh well, there'll be other ones next week - so a good morning to everyone anyway!sLo_hug2.gif

    Lowering the tone (as usual!), I decided to take a leaf out of the tiffin' sparrows' books - they're at it like wabbits! - and try to be a flirty, irrestible Tiffster - RAWR!1.gif.....

    However, it seemed to work and I ''pulled'' (hate that phrase - very unTiff-like!:rolleyes: ).....waiting.gif.....

    I've obviously got a lot of work to do on my technique!biggrin.gif

    Currently halfway through writing The Tiff Chronicles ~ Part 8.rolleyes.gif ...And living it too!loco.gif
    Stay safe guys - love to all of you.sLo_hug2.gif
    Much Love,
