I have depression, on meds, having therapy (cbt, not helping). a lot of this was triggered by money worries, stressful job, huge move 200+ miles, legal issues, and, the biggie - I thought dp was cheating, he was and is marrying ow next year. (she was texting me anonymously) to say she was seeing him, he denied everything) I am dwelling on:

whether I will ever not have depression (I have had many episodes, often with suicidal impulses)

why we are all here/meaning of life (and keep thinking I want to do a Ouija board to contact someone who will help me and tell me I will see dm again - I know pathetic)

why she was better than me, he told me I was disorganised and messy, so that is part of it, she is younger and prettier too.

how the hell I am going to cope on the "big day".

I keep telling myself I AM being unreasonable, I have got lots going for me compared to many, I do believe in woo, but not Ouija boards, by the time of the wedding I may not care. I get the most support from here, I have name changed as I don't want to be outed but also posted on relationsips under this name and got some good advice (thank you RiceCrispieTreats) but I have woke today and I am wallowing. He told me I was messy, and I am sitting in a messy house feeling like a failure.

He was my first proper relationship for 18 years, since the father of my children dumped me while pregnant and kept our house.

please talk some sense into me. thank you.

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.

We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources - here. You can also go to the Samaritans' website here, or email them on [email protected]. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.

Wishing you all the very best OP Flowers.

We are going to move this thread to the Mental Health section shortly.
