No idea mate hopefully it will stop me feeling knackered all the time.What's the difference
Good effort mate, this board is excellent. Amazes me how canny people are.
I think I probably need to give up alcohol completely if I am honest, rely on it too much, and it makes me completely self destruct. Still recovering mentally from Saturday's session, I am not one who can go out and have a couple
Its just a big call at my age to give it up as rely it on it to socialise, especially when it comes to meeting lasses etc.
The grief hit me hard on Saturday and it broke me. Thanks for the half time cuddle xx
And thanks for the hug @alisafc xx
I miss him so much
Have written my eulogy and it's mostly funny things he did. I think he'd like people to smile when they remember him. Everyone I've spoken to so far has mentioned his big smile that brightened the place up.
Hope you feel better soon @Jimmer13 xx
First time posting on this thread.
Suffered with anxiety and depression for years but suppressed everything by firstly smoking cannabis for a long time becoming a serious problem.
First breakdown but not admitting my mental state led me to f***ing weed off and throwing myself into the gym and getting myself from 10st wet to 18st solid but along the way cane steroids which again helped but became a problem over time.
The wife stopped me taking anymore gear cos it was affecting the home life in various ways so I then fell into house drinking but got to daft levels.
The big breakdown come and I finally seemed out help and after some time started taking anti depressants; in truth they made my life completely miserable for the 2 years I was on them. Decided to quit the meds this January and weaned myself off very slowly but sadly the anxiety and depression has this coming week come flooding back in waves. Been to the Dr today and he has given me 6 months medication; sat here for 2 hours (kitchen) looking at the prescription and debating how I want to move forward.
It’s a horrible thing and in truth it’s breakong me but I’ll get through this.
Love to each and every one of you
It's weird you take them to feel better but in my case there making me worseSorry to hear that marra. Is it the same meds as before or different ones?
If they're different, they might be better for you than the last lot but only you can decide if you want to give them a try. What else helps you keep it at bay? Keep talking mate and we'll get through this xx

Got myself signed off for two weeks yesterday, and all I did was worry about the folk at work who'd be picking up the slack.
Only really had a week off when my Mother passed, then back to work, worked right over Xmas and New Year. Bosses father died about early December so she disappeared, then she had 2 weeks holiday in Jan. Between that and training courses I ended up running the team for her with no time to look after myself. Then there was the car crash I was in, then a lad at work died last week in a crash, my old man went down the drink route and ended up in hospital (he's straightened himself out a touch)
It had got to the stage that I was snapping at everyone at home and work, headphones in at my desk, hiding in another room when I got home.
Realised I need time to rearrange my furniture in my head, so after a couple of GP visits to adjust meds and whatnot she suggetsed I take 2 weeks as a minimum and go look after myself.

I’ve recently gone throughout cbt and to be honest found it a waste of time.
The Doctor has been through all of this with me so has hit me for 6 saying go back to the meds, I’ll probsbly end up getting the sack if I have the same affects as last time so really in a quandary about what to do for the best

I am Yeh but I'm waiting on biopsy results and x rays and scans so trying to hold of until I get more news.Are you still taking the same medication you were prescribed first time round? If so would it not be worth going back to the doctor to ask for a different medication? If the tablets are offering no notable benefit then it's time to try something else.
maybe some type of talking/sharing that's not CBT then ?I’ve recently gone throughout cbt and to be honest found it a waste of time.
