Depression

[Deleted member 120]

Are you someone who suffers with depression?
Are you aware of the help available - maybe tried some things and not quite got the answers?

Maybe it's one of those things that should indeed be discussed.
But before we do, here's some info;

Sorry if I've missed anything out, there's so many.

Anyway, we know that right now it's a very difficult situation for us all. Yes we started a thread about mental health et al ages ago, but perhaps this could be more about others' experience of depression.
Maybe someone needs some help, maybe you do... Maybe you don't but have the skills to help.. Maybe you just want to talk about it on a safe site.

NB: I should add, only add something in here that you are comfortable sharing with others. x

You know me well enough by now that I will always tell my experience just the way it is and on this subject, I could write a dissertation.
I will come back to this and hope that the chap that offered support last week will join in. For now, I will say that for 'almost' all of 2020 I was free of the beast because I was supporting my family and making sure they didn't get to that place. I like to be the calm in the storm.

Great starting point, there are people that can benefit form real life of others, not everything is easy to say or believe but just ask or just listen that’s the first step. And start believing In yourself.

Terrible stuff. There is help out there but finding it and accessing it, even now, is challenging more than ever.

For me it's music and computer games. I've never been on meds as I took enough recreational medicine to know how brief that relief feels to me. Plus I'm too lazy and too busy for exercise. Tried it at school and that was enough ?
