A little comment got to me a lot, earlier. got a little down from it. then we went for food, and a song came on, and I couldn't help blubbering away. in fairness it was the song my mam had played at her funeral, but still, haven't cried like that at the song in a long time. dunno wtf is wrong with me. made a show of myself in there.

So I did it again, cancelled the trip at the last minute. I'm such an idiot. I'm not so bothered that I'm not going, more than I've just wasted money by booking stuff and cancelling. Luckily enough the event happens every year so I can go next year instead if I get my head together by then.

You're not an idiot - you did what you had to do to survive. The money is an absolute bitch, but YOU are more more important than money. So you have some free time at home - do something nice for yourself - put on a fav program, eat an ice cream, sleep...you deserve it.:)

I had to call In sick today because of my shoulder. Now im stuck st home with too much on my mind.
The stress pain i have in my stomach is hurting so much. I've xanax somewhere so might take that tonight to help with the stress.
I had a doctors appointment schedule today but they cancelled. I'm sort of glad because i felt a bit of a fraud going in saying i was stressed.

I'm feeling a bit less miffed today but I wonder for how long it'll last.

That's good that you're feeling a bit better

don't put yourself under pressure for how your mood is though - if itgets worse again it's not your fault, just take it in your stride.

Wasn't feeling the best the last few days, but getting outside today (even thoiugh all I did was sit in the garden) has helped a bit.

*hugs* for everyone!

Hi Snoopy 1,

Of course it will. Work will keep your mind occupied all day. You dont be worrying about anything.

At my first go tournament this weekend. Somewhat wired because of it. I had a lot of trouble sleeping last night but fortunately the Zispin kicked in and I got 4 hours.

If they're the one I'm thinking of they are great, used to go years ago. (phone a number at a set time to get directions to some obscure location sort of beach party??)

Haven't been on much this week, I've been incredibly busy as I've had my daughter all week, which was absolutely amazing. Didn't do a massive amount of stuff with her but it was great to spend some quality time with her, I brought her rock climbing for the first time yesterday and she had a ball, it was great that we both enjoyed the same thing.

nothing so exciting lol. It's some friends' last weekend in town, so all heading to beach down the road after pub. Although probably not going to pub and just going to beach instead.

Oh I would love rock climbing! Glad you enjoyed

Gillo · 26-05-2012 11:21pm

Sounds like a good night though. Yeah they were exciting, hectic race to god knows where though and despite what the papers said they rarely got shut down- god I wish I was young again:(

noah45 · 27-05-2012 8:24am

glad ye having nice weekend. Perfect weather for beach party and rock climbing.
Fabulous out today but struggling to get up.

Don't worry jam,just realising what a useless lump I am,all I have been is a nuisance to anybody.

I always feel like a useless lump too. You're not one. It's just how our minds work at times.

I really am. I've nothing to offer anybody. all I do is upset people. can't get a job, have no interests... all i'm doing is sponging off the state

cloud493 · 27-05-2012 4:34pm

You'll get a job eventually

the economies bad, thats not your being 'useless'

Hi,

Its me. Dont keep beating yourself up about work. Things in the country are bad now but they will pick up. And your not sponging off anyone. you are entitled to be helped just as much as any of the unfortunate people that cannot get work. So, keep your chin up, as everything will sort itself out.

neemish · 27-05-2012 8:16pm

A friend of mine used to say "it's a poor country that can't afford a few like you" when I was on disability

It's swings and roundabouts, when you're working again you'll be helping out some other poor soul who can't work

lukesmom · 27-05-2012 11:32pm

Hi just found this thread. Have been on citalopram for 4 years for what originally began as panic attacks. They quickly turned into full blown anxiety disorder which then became depression. Came off them oI'nce for a couple of months but soon went back on them after Christmas. I still get awful anxiety/depression bouts now and again. Every single morning I'm anxious and have to try coax myself out of it. It usually takes a couple of hours. I get anxious for no reason at all. I just get anxious. A feeling of doom. It's horrible.

I wanted to ask a question though. Do any of you fear that you will 'never be right' again? I often wonder is it because I'm too deep that I have this condition. I'm of the opinion that it changed me as a person and I lost a part of my soul I can never get back.

cloud493 · 27-05-2012 11:34pm

I worry that I'm going to feel like this forever, and its only going to get worse. But I do try to not dwell on it.

Yeah I think I'll never reclaim anything. I wasn't much to begin with anyway.

lukesmom · 27-05-2012 11:46pm

Your right not to dwell. I just find it creeps into my head at times.

cloud493 · 27-05-2012 11:50pm

No I know. I'm not very good at it, to be honest. I find myself staying up all night, dwelling on it. Thinking about how has happened, and what is going to happen, and how much worse its going to get.

27-05-2012 11:58pm

Have been feeling quite up and down this weekend. The weather has helped keep me sane for the most part but seeing the amount of couples around was still enough to get to me.

I still don't understand why being single gets to me so much.

I think we call feel like that at times man. It's only natural to want someone.

RubyXI · 28-05-2012 8:07am

I always have been like this so I can only assume I always will be.

G-Money · 28-05-2012 8:34am

Meant to update here, appointment made for Wednesday. Am hoping this is step 1 to getting my s*** together and getting this anxiety thing sorted. I've also noticed elements of depression or something as well in my behaviour over the last while. Cancelling that trip to go to something I'm normally really interested in and not even watching it on TV. Although I think I did the latter because watching it would have made me feel worse for not going.

Telling you to "stop thinking like that" probably won't work as I know myself when I try to tell myself to stop thinking something, it seems to just make me keep doing it.

First of all, you're not sponging off the state. Indirectly I know two people who are sponging off the state and it's by choice too. You are looking for work and haven't found anything yet, that's hugely different. You are trying and that is what counts

As for not having interests, I sometimes feel like that myself. There's a few sports I'm into, but when they're not on TV, I sort of feel like I'm losing my mind and I've no other interests.

Lets all be anxious/depressed together.
