Hi my name is Karen. I am married and mum to twin girls. I am full time carer for my youngest twin as she has autism and epilepsy. I found this site about 8 months ago. I've only posted a couple of times but I have read a lot of posts. It is great that there is somewhere that you can go when no one else understands what you are going through. It has helped me so much xx
Hi all.
My name is Pete, I'm married with 2 daughters and I live in Norfolk. I joined the forum about a month ago having suffered from depression on & off for over 20 years.
I have found some genuine, caring people on this forum who are always willing to offer non-judgmental advice.
Best wishes
Pete
I'm Lorna, retired, I live in the Scottish Borders with my husband and three cats. Been off meds for one year but having to go back as I'm going downhill again. Trying meditation and exercise but still not coping. Trying to stay positive but every time any one is nice to me I end up weeping. My self esteem is at rock bottom. Talking to the group has left me feeling less alone.u
Hi, I'm Sue and live in St Helens. I'm 65 and live with my disabled husband and our 4 Burmese cats and I have two adult children but they live abroad so I don't see as much of them as I would like. I'm retired from teaching and therapy practice then did a fine art degree but have not done any artwork for several years due to lack of motivation. I have started walking with the Ramblers in recent months and go out on their coach walks every couple of weeks, also joined the U3A as I begin to feel better, I'm beginning to take up hobbies again - knitting, crafts, jigsaws, and gardening in the summer. xx
