I think I'd rather talk about depression than see this thread turn into another one of HIAG's 'Look at me' threads.


It was G4E who asked to see my guitars, Pix!

Perhaps you should ban him from the Gooner board? You've banned everyone else, mate.

In fact, if anyone wants to grasp a full understanding of what depression is, they should pop along to the grief-hole that is the Gooner board. Leaving to come back here ought to give them a much-needed boost.

...as I was saying. Kindly **** off now HIAG, there's a good lad :emoticon-0109-kiss:

I have suffered with depression most of my life , particularly in the last 16 years . Would not wish it on anyone .

Terrible burden on the person and their family. Personally I've not suffered, but I worked with people with mental health problems for many years and saw the effects that it had on their lives and those around them. I would urge anybody who suffers from poor mental health to seek support, there is a lot out there for people these days.

My mother suffered with it for a while, and eventually had a nervous breakdown. I was living at home, at the time, and it was quite distressing watching her go through it.

Her doctor, eventually, managed to control it with drugs, which she takes after all these years (although much reduced), but there was a good two or three years where she found everything to be quite a struggle.

Did her condition improve when you moved out?

I am on Citalopram for life .
 
I don't think it's possible to be happy and sane existing in a reality that's fundamental controlling force appears to be irony.
 
Does anybody here become a sexual deviant when going through a mental illness stage? I get it terribly with my bipolar.

On a serious note it's caused me so much trouble in my life, relationship breakdowns after being caught out, embarrassment getting caught shagging in random places, ****ing peoples girlfriends and then having to go through all the **** with their boyfriends when they find out.

I'm not bothered who I'm doing it with. It could literally be a worldie, or it could be the complete opposite end of the scale and I'll still go in balls deep. I'm using this thread because it's linked and I'm now filled with regret after the sex I had last night. So I guess I'm just writing down my thoughts as I speak.

Anybody else like this with their mental illness or when going through a stage of mental illness?

Nah not for me mate, I'm opposite.

I turn into a recluse when I'm in a bad way, will hardly look at women let alone speak to them and spend a lot of time indoors away from people full stop.

We're all different though, and can't say I've ever suffered from bipolar.

If I'm in a black hole with depression like I think you are talking about, then yeah, I mostly can't be bothered with it.

When I'm going through a manic stage and I'm hyper as **** that's when I'm at my worst. It's great at the time, but ****ing hell, dealing with this regret is a bitch. <laugh>

Yeah mate, just beating myself up about why I done it. I've barely slept and I'm up for the day now.

I really don't want to face the ****er again but because of circumstances, I know I'm going to have too. The next few weeks are going to be a nightmare for my anxiety. I need to learn to say no and to keep it in my pants <doh>

I actually got a grand for it in a roundabout way.

What happened was I've agreed a price on a house, the survey got done and the mortgage company said they value the house at one thousand pounds less than the agreed fee, so anything over what they valued it at I needed to pay up front, which was a grand. I've spent enough already so I went to see her to see if anything could be done. I ended up bucking her and she's agreed to drop the price by a grand.

If you could have seen her, though :emoticon-0119-puke:
