Stressful - but now I have a 3 day weekend

Fun! But draining. Trying to motivate a person with depression can be tiring.

when you down it's are to get going

I know she's been in a slump for about 6 months. Some days she's really positive but she hasn't left her room in days

i think my mum got a mild form of depression since being laid off she used to love her job goverment cut back she lay in bed till about 10/11am some days

Oh really? It's awful, and people are so ignorant towards mental health problems sometimes, it makes it even harder for people to talk about. Must be so hard losing a job that you love, it effects your whole well being!

it does i got her to goto this monday class where she has a cup of tea and make little thing

Ah that sounds productive does she enjoy it? Is she going to try and find another job?

she would another job only if it part time but she doesnt think anybody will want her becasue of her ages

Work was great today despite my hands being too cold to type, got 10 articles done; got the housework done; made dinner; exercised the doggits; had a committee meeting for the complex and now it's time for hot choc, bed and book

busy bee lisa

A very similar experience tonight it never ceases to amaze me how some people stay so strong despite being in a continuing battle with their mental health

hi jules, I wonder what made you come out with that statement, just being nosey ,only answer if you don't want too answer don't worry     

you take to your bed for weeks/months, you only eat 1 slice of toast a day 1 glass of water, don't shower or bath for weeks until your partner helps you there and has to wash you

you wont have the curtains open in your bed room or windows

you only get to stay at home as your partner is home 24/7 and can lock up the mers

sorry guys it can a lot worse than that but I don't want to go any further thanks xx

No worries cant go into detail but almost exclusively my contact is centered around people at their absolute lowest or extreme points

Now twice in two days I have spoken with people who have experienced more tragedy, violence etc in their lives than the average person but are able to display a determination not to be overwhelmed by their individual conditions any more!

not easy to be strong but they have safety homes around now thank god,

we need more good people like you, so many shy away from MH, it is still not talked about, and because you cannot see MH the person is not well try to walk a whole 24 hrs in a person with MH shoes you will soon change your mind
,

Hell on earth today, possibly one of the worst I have had there. so mentaly tierd its unreal.

Awww hugs Nath
