Really depressed
Discussion
Please do keep posting Rob, warts and all.
Most importantly that means many good people here can help.
Secondly do not underestimate how strong you actually are to have been so open and honest. That takes a very brave man. You have my, and I suspect many others respect.
Keep it up and I wish you well.
P.S. Eat something (anything!) and take in a bit of exercise... just a brisk walk will do. You will feel better for it!

Wow guys I don't know what to say , I wasn't sure if I should post what's going on with me but just wanted to be honest , not eating as I'm worried about money so trying not to spend any stupid really , I just want to feel normal and become more positive
Always post, better to get it out in the open, gets you offers of help if you need or want them (and it's FINE to not want them, saying "today sucked" does not oblige you to let someone into your life to help if that doesn't actually feel like it'd be helpful) and gives you a kind of historical record of how things have been too. The thing about money stuff, mental health stuff, work, benefits, all of it…
…is it all means feck all if you crock your physical body out first by not supplying it with sufficient fluids and fuel!
Gotta keep you ticking to give you time to recover from your depression is the bottom line. And to keep you in a state where you can enjoy the better days in the mean time, too.

Rob, You can make a decent filling meal for less than a couple of quid if you use your imagination.
Best sirloin steak can wait for another day.
You need to force yourself to eat at regular intervals, try to avoid junk food.

A friend of mine killed himself today. No outward signs of worrying about anything. He hadn't mentioned anything to anyone. He seemed happy. And now he's gone. Please, if you are having problems or worrying about stuff just talk to someone. There's always a way to sort things out.
I'm so sorry to hear that So don't be feeling ashamed of posting things on here. And get some food and fluid inside you. If you don't we'll find out where you live again and order 300 takeaways for you

I've been through this loop with someone with an eating disorder, not eating will actually make your mental state worse. The brain needs fuel to function properly. Even cheap calories are better than none Chocolate, chocolate is good. Nom nom...
