Its World Mental Health Day.... We know that year has been a tough one for liver patients & their families and prioritising mental health has never been more essential than it is now.
Keep taking and communicating...... We are really proud of the forum, and you all.
Warm wishes
Trust 1 and the team
Best wishes to you all too, trying times for all.
Keep up the good work.

Thank you
A very tough year for everyone and great to have the forum support🙏 In a previous life I organised some MH events and we used to talk about CLANG for MH. Connect, Learn, be Active, Notice and Give, orthe Five Ways to Wellbeing🙏
What a brilliant acronym. Love it!
Someone i've not seen for a while at a petrol pump filling up like you do, said to me in that sarcastic way
'I heard you got through your drink stage and your mood depression stuff all gone now bout time fella it's all bolloks anyways aint it mate ..'
Well I just smiled and laughed, 'Addiction and mental health don't work like that FELLA, once you have it, youll always have it but I fight my ass off everday choosing not to feed them wants, needs and thoughts so yes its all bolloks MATE'.....that's stuck with me for life now, my mantra type thing. I don't waste my time with people who don't matter though, My recovery must come first so that everything I love in life does not have to come last. 👍
Hope everyone's plodding along and just keeping on swimming 🐠🐟thinking of all the sufferers out there, know first hand. Take care all ❤

Hi Ash, to be honest I used to think I’d be able to give up the booze for a few months or so and then I’d be cured and be able to drink moderately. It’s not common knowledge that this isn’t the case. I only worked this one out from reading posts on another forum and the stories of so-called ex-drinkers relapsing after believing they were “cured”. It’s really scary that someone with an alcohol problem can quit for years but then fall back into old habits within a matter of days. My GP, for example, never mentioned this. Sometimes it takes an addict to understand. Hope you’re doing OK.
Hi Coco yes im getting there had a few setbacks here and there lately but nothing I've not nipped in the bud before it got out of reach, onwards and upwards hope you well?
Ash
I just feel you will get there Ash I’m not going to say it’s easy it’s really hard work but with the right attitude and with a bit of support you will make it 👍👍
