Really depressed
Discussion
So how is everybody?
At the moment I'm on a high and a good place, helped by a combination of cbt, good friends and learning to take one day at a time . I've been astounded by the support and kindness of people . For example went out to top golf driving range yesterday and got some excelllent tips and treated to a very decent burger ! , good company and decent chat goes a long way, 3 months ago I wouldn't of left the house!
He will probably be on here soon to state the fact he beat my best score by a significant amount
Take care everyone

How's things with you ?
Got my heart medication sorted at last so much reduced fatigue and a lot more energy - can walk for miles now and even stay awake till late! Looks like 2017 is going to be a better year for both of us.
Hi guys and gals , just wanted to update this thread, well the very good news is l... im into my third day of my new job!
Complete change of direction for me as I now work for Citroen as a salesman, I love selling, I love cars and hopefully the money potential will be very useful!
A mutual friend recommended me and I felt the interview went well and it did !
I'm still using the techniques I learnt from cbt, I'm finding it's easy to take things personally at work, so I'm learning to have a tough skin and realise I'm not responsible for other people's actions!
Next thing is to see my kids more and more which I'm working towards with my ex.
I can't believe things are on the up and I'm so grateful for everyone's support on this thread, wish I could meet you all and buy you a pint or 3 !

Hi all,, hope everybody is well,
well over due for an update, hope you don't mind,
so job is going great I absolutely love it, love having a posh car to drive home (currently ds3 cabriolet 1.2 turbo with all the toys)
lots of strong characters at work which previously would of crushed me, but find it all quite 'normal',
I get on really well with my boss and even sold my first car !
! ,lots to learn and long hours but I have my life back !
Working on seeing my kids more too..,
I've learnt so much and have learnt the danger signs of what to look out for that may cause me harm, e.g. Not eating or sleeping properly, will never take things for granted again and fully aware I need to guard against the 'black dog'
Learning also to not feel guilty about being happy if that makes sense.
Please don't forgot I couldn't of done any of this with out the support of you guys and girls on here , will never ever forget what you have done for me ! Rob

So good to see that you've got on top of things again Rob. Make sure you find time to socialise with your friends as well as keeping busy at work. As you've found out the hard way, it's all about balance and you can never get it quite right. We're all like that really.
See you in July, you don't need to bring anything. Just come along for some food and beer ( or gin, i have lots) and stay over if you want to. Always lots going on and you will love it.
Roll on July ! The funny thing is I'm working long hours but have so much more energy!See you in July, you don't need to bring anything. Just come along for some food and beer ( or gin, i have lots) and stay over if you want to. Always lots going on and you will love it.
Been out loads more and have organised Friday night drinks at work

Biggest challenge is my divorce and ex including seeing the kids but thanks to you guys on here I've come out of a deep hole and aware of what can set me back, best bit of advice I can give is if your feeling low is please talk to someone , I can honestly say you guys on here saved me and I wish I could repay you all !
Hi all just wanted to say hi ,haven't posted for a while but will never forget the support I got on here ,will be honest reading through this again was bloody hard and I may of a had a tear in my eye ,I've learnt to recognise what gets me down and how to manage my energy , eg pick my battles , and when I'm feeling low I know what to do to combat it , is it easy ? Sometimes yes most days no , but i no longer feel ashamed , working hard ,have good friends ,an amazing family , just please remember one thing , and I mean this 100% I honestly believe you guys on here saved my life ! How can I repay that !
