Glad thats over!

I havent been on here for a while because my depression has been under control but recently Ive been feeling really low.

I really havent been in the Christmas mood. We had family round today and they have just left. It was difficult to keep cheerful but I made it.

Happy christmas to everyone like me who find this time of year difficult.

Hey Golfer

I'm sure you feel some sense of achievement knowing that you managed the day. That's late in the day for the relatives to be leaving! Will you have a nice quiet day tomorrow or will it be more of the same?

I'm fairly pleased with how I've coped, although for the most part I've felt a little numb. I think that's the effects of the anti depressants, and I suppose it's preferable to the alternative.

Hope to see more of you on here in the new year!

Have a nice Boxing day! I will be glad when its over too! Depression is something we all try to hide, we just have to go through life showing our best face. Best wishes and thoughts to you.

Woke up this morning and there was a bit of me that though 'great, that's all over. I can really relax now'.

Well done on making it through the day.

Perfectly okay to have not enjoyed the company ..

Time for some loud music on the headphones?

I'm going to wash the kitchen floor now - oh joy, oh bliss!!! :)

Hello Gambit

You can come around and do ours if you want, Pax was out in garden and came in with muddy paws.

It was covered in mud before we caught him

All the best

My problem came was keeping the cats out whilst I was putting the polish down :)

I invested in a special mat a few years ago that is supposed to remove most of the mud from shoes and pets feet as they come in - across the conservatory door and the cat flap - don't seem to be get nearly so many muddy paw prints on the floor as I used to

Yes Gambit62. You want to be more worried about men's foot prints, the Pets are less dangerous

Hi Gambit, sensible advice from you as usual, except washing the kitchen floor, are you trying to give me a guilty feeling, when I hear my beloved sloshing about? Have a great New Year and hopefully look forward to a HAPPY & HEALTHY NEW YEAR.

Jamie.

Golfer15,

I see your handicap has returned, just remember, you've been without it for a while, and it will go away again, I'm sure.!!!

You said it was difficult to make it through xmas, but again you made it hope not to see you on here again, but remember, your advice couldbe invaluable to new new members, and those who are suffering.

Christmas can be a very stressful time! Well done on getting through it.

All the best for the New Year
