Hello im new, so here is my howdy

[rocklobster]

Well i registered in july so technically not new, but not been on here since, and i tend to ramble so will spare anyone who reads this the full history. Anyone who is on here is probably in a similar sort of boat, only floating on their own particular ocean of.....discomfort.
Mine are to me pretty bad and the waves are getting bigger.
So howdy to all fellow sailors.

Welcome  , I tend to read on the forums at least once a day so you're more than welcome to ramble here

Hi rocklobster, welcome to the forums.
while there are many ways depression can impact on our lives, and the same situation does not always affect people in the same way, treatment for depression sure isnt a one size fits all.
have you talked this over with your doc?

Hello rocklobster

I am new here too and my first post was, as we say in my part of the world, a right old ramble.

Loved your analogy of "same boat, particular ocean", so very true. We are all here for the same reason so don't worry and ramble away.

We are all having similar experiences but everyone's experience is personal to them so, as Stewart says, there is no one size fits all solution. Hope you find yours.

I have accessed the recommended support, GP and counselling, and they have helped to some degree but sometimes what we really need is to be in contact people who can really understand what we are going through. That is why I am here!

I just hope it helps to know that there is an outlet for your feelings and there are people you can talk to.
