Title: Hi my name is rob
Post by: Brown1975 on September 02, 2013, 09:57:46 PM

My life is like trying to keep lots of plates spinning
When I go past people who are homeless or alcoholics in the street I'm envious for that life,
&$%+ way to think I know

Hi Rob,

Welcome to the forums :)

I am sorry to hear that you are stuggling too...
I myself have thought that; the homeless thing that is; i cant really explain why it seems a bit appealing but it just is.
I dont even think i made sense there. What im trying to say anyway is that I can relate. I think a lot of people on here will be able to relate.

This is a good place to let out your feelings and thoughts without being judged upon. However of course that is only when you are ready. There are many people on here who will make you feel welcome and want to help you; its refreshing being able to speak to people who understand what sort of feelings you have, I have no one in person I can talk to so I like to come on here as I am understood.

Hey & welcome Rob!   :bye:

hope your doing ok!? FluffySeal is right there are a lot of likeminded people here who you'll find share our thoughts and feelings about things.

I never would have actually kept one if not for this site but I find keeping a journal helps!

Hi Rob, this is one place you can be yourself without being judged.  People who don't suffer with depression don't get it how we feel so being here you will get support.

the courage will come in time, usually it gets to the point where you 'just  cant take anymore' and something has to give. take it one step at a time by just booking an appointment to see your gp and ask for a referral for counselling. that'd be the first step, there are long waiting lists so you have time to try and build your confidence to then maybe, hopefully speak to a therapist!

I hope your managing right now... its not easy!
