The Mental Health thread

People who can tell you're not "all there" without you needing to say so are a godsend.

Yesterday was bad, really bad. The missus had to come over to calm me down because I'd totally lost it. God knows what would have happened if I were left to my own devices.

I'm feeling a bit better today but it has got me worried about how I'm going to deal with the next month (and possibly more).

I know how you feel mate.
I've been off work all week due to stress, really havent been feeling myself lately and I kind of snapped last weekend. It freaked me out as it was so unexpected.

My wife insisted I take some time off to get my head right and it has really helped.
I am so thankful for my wife - she has been a rock this week, she took time off too and has been so supportive, it has really opened my eyes to MH issues and I am do appreciative for her support as I would have been lost without her tbh.

Awwww, I'm getting the warm fuzzies reading all that.

Love is truly something else. In both directions.

Have you seen Dan's facebook photos today?
Definitely made me feel warm and fuzzy seeing the two of them.
I'm happy to see you happy Dan.
 
I'm a very lucky man. Does mean I have to behave myself, but such is life :)

I had a bit of a breakthrough today, I felt stressed, anxious and depressed most of the day but didn't beat myself up for it.

I just let it pass and accepted I'm going to have days where I feel like that and hopefully days when I don't.

I finished work and did a bit of mindfulness / meditation which really helped
 
Everyone is different but that's been the difference maker for me for the last couple of years mate, you just have to tell yourself that you win more than you lose. Doesn't make it any easier when times are bad but it's something you have to remember whereas 8-9 years ago I had 9 bad days and 1 average day out of 10, at best. You ask these reprobates on here, it's night and day.

Stick at it, you'll get plenty of support here, they're good people. You look after your own.

Think that we are all going through this - fortunately never had a long term issue and always thought that I was relatively stable (or boring - you'll have to decide for yourselves)

Is still more of a struggle this time, particularly living on my own - have found myself randomely phoning other family members just to get someone to talk to
 
I'd had a particularly stressful 'family' Sunday and hadn't had chance to wind down before Monday started and so was on edge all day.

I'm starting to learn more about anxiety and how it's triggered and the impacts it can have, I kind of knew today was coming if that makes sense?

Im learning all the time how to deal with anxiety and just accepting that sometimes I won't be at my best, but also accepting that it's ok to not be at your best felt like a huge step forward for me.

Thanks for the kind words
 
Struggling right now. There isn't anything to look forward to, can't see hardly anyone, every single day the cunt Government annoy me a bit more, haven't got any work. And I have no control over any of that. Telling myself "it'll get better" isn't much comfort since I said that about four months ago and it hasn't.

Running out of road I think.

I think that’s how a lot of people are feeling right now, me included. The genuine bright point I’m focusing on is the solution isn’t provided by the government but by science. The government might stuff up and delay the delivery of the vaccine but it will get there and we will get through this.

Might even get to see a proper match this season...!
 
I'm normally a person that relies on her sense of humour, I usually don't do ' serious ' very well.

After more or less of being in the house for 11 months, I have very little of a sense of humour left.

I have never felt this low in my life. Being a full time carer for my mom, sometimes I feel like I've been put through the wringer. Confined to the house is hard on the 3 of us.

DW, thinking of you x
 
It's more brought home what a fucking waste of space I am. I don't do anything useful. I don't bring anything to anyone's life. I genuinely might as well not be here, it's existing for existing's sake.

I'd rather not right now in all honesty.

You may not think you bring anything to anyone's life, but there are many that would disagree.

We just have to all be there for each other, whether it be for a moan, a rant, or for support.xx
