Hey all,
I've recently started suffering from depression again, had anxiety and depression when i was younger.
I'm 29 and in my last year at college after going back to study, but for the past few months i've been getting more and more disinterested, missing days and then walking out early etc.
Then i started to feel down, i started to think why am i here and whats the point. Ended up spooking myself and have been depressed since.
I went to my doctors and he agreed, put me on meds (4 days ago) and said it could take weeks for them to start working.
I'm not a very social person so dont have friends as such, I live with family (mother, sister+ her kids) who have been supportive thus far, socially my live is pretty empty. My ex girlfriend is also supportive.
Even still i've been isolating myself when feeling really bad, I feel scared and become very self aware.
When down it feels like i'm buzzing and i struggle through mainly by zoning out playing video games as i'm pretty much in my bedroom. I can barely even watch tv sometimes.
I informed my tutor of whats happening and he was good about it, though i missed our meeting on friday, the college i attend is really quite some distance from where i live.
I have been trying to remain active, going to the shops, walks and helping my mother. Trying to get my sleep sorted out aswell. luckily it hasnt been to bad.
I'm worried because i have diabetes and am barely eating anything, plus my smoking habit has alomst trebled.
Anyways, this is a wee bit about me. I hope i can find and give some support here.
Will
