Each and every one of us has mental or physical struggles.Depression is borne by not being able to see light after the darkness.

I write this post as I am aware many of us are fighting our own internal battles, be it physical or mental.Since my Mother has gone , my loneliness is ever present and I have begun a routine of study and a few job applications.

It breaks my heart every day that I am not working and thus leads to ne feeling sad and low.

My Mother's mean relatives have started to insult her as one particular Aunt has been cruel to me in the past.

I am trying and hopefully one day , my repetitive script will change for the better

Good evening

I hope you are well.

I have been fasting today and May br this is why my mood has been low.

For the time being my Mother is not moving to U.K. and she does trigger my anxiety .

You have been patient and persevered with the obstacles to have your dream home and it is deserved

I will try to be a little more upbeat and join in other peoples posts and thank you

You explained you applied positive visualisation to reach your goal of finding the right house so I will have to believe there is the right job but I have to apply myself to find it .

Hi yes you need to be more upbeat I know it's hard I felt down today too and was staying off here on break but looked and got involved ended up having bit fun and it lifted my mood so I hope that you can start joining in and make friends on here lady zens posts are usually fun and encourage others to join in, yes I understand about low mood from lack of food that may be my problem too as you know I have a colitis return I'm eating but not like I was 🤗

Thanks for reply and understanding.

I expect it is important you watch your diet to prevent a reoccurrence.

I understand that I seem to come across as low so thanks for correcting me .

But many on this site have all kinds of moods ups and downs .

Yes of course they can but fasting can make it worse and is preventable. Is it necessary for you to do this?

[Roukaya in reply to hypercat54]

Good evening It is necessary and part of the Islamic religion to fast and it is non negotiable.

However if the fasting causes illhealth we can opt out until we are better.

[hypercat54 in reply to Roukaya]

Well that's your choice.

Hi I'm new to the group and looking to make helpful connections and some friends in the group. You seem to be very helpful and have good ideas too. I suffer with major depressive disorder PTSD and adjustment disorder too. I have lost so much to my depression including my job and then my housing afterwards. Now my husband and I and our cat live in my sister's basement. There's no where left to go but up from here as this past year has brought me to my knees.
