Hi Lol
He doesn't like me talking to people on here or my friends, as he thinks I am talking about our problems behind his back, he doesn't like me emailing my penfriend from Zambia either and we just talk about everyday things. I would love to get him on my side but at the moment it is a struggle I have as well as the depression. He is stressed too (financial probs)As I type I am on edge as he checks what I am doing on the comp and he could come in this room anytime! - Agh

Hi Zaf
Glad you are feeling more positive,that's great 
Thanks for listening

glad you're going to see the doc, hope you feel better this morning, do let us know what he says and how you're feeling later  &*(

[Zaf]

feeling a bit overwhelmed and anxious,  there seems an awful lot to do this week and not a lot of time to do it (its a common feeling I get and usually I manage to do everything with lots of time to spare). Slipped back a tiny bit from yesterday but a fair bit better than I was Thursday and Friday so I need to keep it in perspective

[Lol]

Smirfy I'm so glad you are feeling better. We were worried. A trip to your GP sounds like a very good idea I hope you have a constructive appointment.

Depina, this forum is obviously very important to you and your depression is your own personal battle. It is important that your husband understands that you have a right to do somthing for yourself and don't need his permission especially if it is something that is helping you. It must be very difficult for you that he is not understanding of this.

Have you contemplated relate together? I'm not going to lie to you it is not a nice process but it is very helpful and allows you both to straighten things out without going off at a tangent and loosing the point. VERY helpful.

Zaf you knew this would happen. All part of the process. you made a trade off in doing something yesterday and today you're keeping your part of the bargain. Mondays are always stressful aren't they with the thought of the whole week ahead. Hope all goes well.

I am sad today as my partner has got into work and seems to be completely avoiding me. No hello or anything. this is disturbing me and anxiety is creeping up. We have relate today and it gives me nausia every time I think about it. I'm going to go in to her and see how she's doing but I know I will be cooly received and that will knock me down. Here goes nothing. 

[Zaf]

You're right LOL, I knew I would probably feel a bit worse today and, although disappointing to have these minor set backs, at least I do expect them and can deal with them.

I'm so sorry things are bad for you,  I do hope that the session at relate is positive for you both, but unfortunately sometimes these things can take time, often when I went for counselling it took a few weeks for something said in a session to really make sense or to somehow to be worked out in my head,  at least you are going to counselling even though it may be traumatic at the time.

Zaf you are right,my husband is logging on here so I will say bye for now  *(*

Thank You XX

[Zaf]

Hope you can get back sometime D, you seem to have found talking in here so helpful xx

A bit up and down today, not massive highs and lows, just slight changes in how positive (or not) I feel, very tired now so it looks like an early night

[smirfy21]

I had my appointment with my GP this morning and he seems to think that I was experiancing a full manic episode and has changed my medication levels.
he is concerned that I don't call anybody to ask for help but obviously there is nothing he can do about that so I think that is his main concern.
anyway thats all I have to say for now

We're here for you smirfy, if that helps.

[Munchroom]

Nervous, overwhelmed, tired and concerned about my meds...

My friend has talked me into joining the playgroup commitee in the village! (I have no children...) and they meet tonight! My friend is picking me up and we're going down together, but I'm pretty terrified...

[Zaf]

Hope it all went well munchroom

Very very tired at the moment, will be around but possibly not post much till I pick up a bit...

[Munchroom]

Hope you are ok Zaf and have managed to get some rest.

It all went ok  :) There were quite a few people there - but I didnt really have to say or do anything much! So just kind of took it all in!

Today has been better  :) I've decided it would be a wonderful idea - and not stressful at all to host a Halloween party!  $%$ So... I'm getting a little manic with ideas and excitment about that, now my biggest fear is that no-one will come though.... 

[Lol]

Munchroom how did the playgroup meet go?

Zaf I'm sorry it's difficult for you at the moment, thanks for taking the time to support me even though you're feeling this way. You have it under control. This is excellent.

Cornish how are you doing today?

Alstare how are you?

[Alstare1974]

Thanks for asking.
Am pretty low, at risk of losing my job because of being ill.

[Lol]

Depina when you say your husband is logging on here does he come and check your posts!!?!?!?! Hope you're getting on ok.
