Hi all, I'm new to this and thought I could gain some support or possibly give some.

I've suffered with depression as well as many mental health issue and disorders. Daily life is a massive struggle....a lonely one at that.
I am a Mam to 4 beautiful kids and they keep me going.
My eldest daughter is now aware of what I suffer with.
I've been medicated for 15 years on and off since post natal depression. As before that it was ignored, being told it was just hormones!

Yup after a break down was told what I suffer with now.

Today I am feeling really low and Like I'm the only person I know to suffer with such an awful illness that leaves me unstable some days to fully functional other days.

Be nice to know I am not alone.
Maybe hear from others.

Thank you xx

Depression can be isolating and lonely; sometimes you can feel like you're the only one in the world feeling like that. Do you have any treatment?

When I started being honest about my own MH problems, I was blown away by how many people then told me about their own MH problems. It is incredibly common.

Agreed ladies, so isolating and I am medicated. I can't get a mental health worker as there's no funding in my area!!

I've had therapists, councillors, even a psychiatrist! I feel I've been left to "just deal with it"
If only it was that easy ay x
