Title: hello
Post by: goldilocks on May 09, 2013, 11:59:12 PM
Like most who post for the first time, I've been thinking what to say for a few days, and still don't know! depression huh! I have had it for 15 years now and don't work as I can't. I also have fibromyalgia, which is linked to depression - lovely! So either I'm in pain from fibromyalgia, or have no energy and can't decide what to do because of depression! It's a wonder I ever get anything done  ???

I'm feeling not too bad at the moment, as I've just been to the doc, and had my meds increased, not taken effect yet, but feel relieved as I will feel better.

read lots of posts before deciding to join, seems very friendly and helpful here, very best wishes to all who are finding it tough. I find I'm better when the sun shines  0158

Hi Goldilocks, welcome to the forums.
depression can be like a hard rolercoaster at times, swinging from highs to lows, an increase (or change) in meds can help stabalize things.

Hi Goldilocks. Sorry that I'm a bit late welcoming you to the forum. The people here have helped me an awful lot since I joined the forum. They are all good people who have experienced the highs and lows of life, and are able to advise, support and understand what you're going through without ever judging. It's a safe place to let out your feelings. I hope that you have more ups than downs, but don't ever be afraid to say exactly how you are feeling. Best wishes.  :bye:
