I know the lad, he has been "online" since the messages. 👍
Been trying to ring but running out of time before I can't for a few hours.
He showed online at 03:58 on WhatsApp after messaging me late last night.
I cant ring until tonight if I can't get through in the next ten minutes.

Do you want to message him my number? I can't offer much other than a chat.
 
Alright everyone.

For awful this last few weeks. Working a job on 30k a year in my late thirties and feel like a failure but my OCD and mental health make the idea of interviewing terrifying.

I’m usually fairly content, a good dad and attentive but this has got on top of me. Tried tablets which didn’t agree with me - don’t know where to turn or what to do.

Apologies for the q. Am curious what didn't agree? The final 9 words must be a common feeling

Anything really. I work in project stuff or coordination of projects.

They made me feel like death - like the only thing I could feel was terror.

Genuinely curious as was reading up on what am on now

One of the effects is a rise in Noradrenaline, which triggers fight or flight responses

Can't be right! Wondering if that's what's freaking me out
 
Update from me. I have had a mad couple of weeks. Some on here will know my previous usernames and know I have been a regular poster for years in this and the old depression thread.

In the last couple of weeks I have left the family home, without going into details it was messy with police involved.
Just through a weird coincidence my dad was back in England and I met up with him for the first time in 20ish years.
By pure luck and good timing I managed to get an autism assessment/diagnosis at short notice.

Sorry if I have the wrong poster but I think it was @Hendon Mad Frog who read some of my posts and recognised that some of my issues may have been made harder because of autism rather than depression.

I have had a few beers so migh regret posting this tomorrow.
