There's always someone in the same boat who welcomes you, understands and is more than willing to send you a lifeline.....Sometimes, you read sad stories and you send the lifeline...it's a fraternity we didn't choose, but one that makes us realize we can get by with a little help from friends...

Hi dawny,yes as you said my family are unable to cope at the moment but i think the problem is they are not taking the trouble to look things up on the Internet or anywhere else for imformation as they have never discussed this problem with me and i sometimes think it is they dont care enough,perhaps i am wrong i hope so as its going to be a long lonely journey for me is ther anyone who feels the way i do or perhaps its me,i am not depressed but is a bit disheartening to say the least.
