Hi David I'm sorry your feeling so upset. Now please don't do anything , as its

Your whole family would feel so guilty.

David would you think about visiting your Dr. Next week as you seem

Very down. When we feel this bad its hard to think that we will ever

Feel better. We will feel better so try and hang on. You are a great old

Pal of mine here, and you always care and help me.

David I will be around tonight if you need a chat. It's very hard to get

Through a bad patch but you did it before.

Warm healing hugs

Oh David Im sorry things are bad for you. Anytime you want me to go on one of my positive rants, Im there :-). You know my advice as always David, F*ck everyone this is YOUR life for YOU God given.

You could never be a more loved person, you beat a trillion sperm to get here and now you are here you deserve to be happy. KEEEEP GOING, KEEP GOING, KEEP GOING, KEEP GOING. Stop trying to please everyone or be something you are not and just be, and if anyone doesn't like it well they can push off.

You are a magnificient human being with a brain which is a million times faster, more agile and more capable than any computer.

You have great courage because life can throw you curve balls, but you are a man who can hold his head high, because you are still here, despite everything!

And as long as you live and breath there is room and hope for change. So give yourself a break, know that things can improve and know you have the courage and fortitude, deep inside to make that happen in your own time when it suits you. Baby steps, but you have a right David, to be on this planet to enjoy the free sunrise and sunset which is here just for you.

For now stuff everyone else and look after you, eat good food the best you can lay your hands on, play games whatever you love, rest all the time until you get your strength back. You can do this, though you may not care to admit it, with each time you get stronger and if someone like you, stood in front of you now and said I'm thinking of ending it all, you know exactly what you would say to that man.....You would say...

DON'T EVER EVER GIVE UP, DON'T STOP UNTIL SOMEONE PHYSICALLY STOPS YOU...and even if they try push them out of the way and keep on. You have exactly nothing to lose.

Good Luck my friend, I have complete faith in you and your capabilities.

Hoorah as friends all we shall get through all this. Take heart and Thank you!

Maybe have a look at mindfulness, I wont go on and on but Ruby Wx explained how in times of stress she concentrates first on feeling her feet on the floor.

Then she tries to find a sound she can follow, so a repitiive noise or maybe traffic or a bird and she listens hard.

This empties her mind and stops the stress and internal chatter. And brings her into the present moment long enough to allow her a sense of calm. What this does I believe is like lifting the arm on an old record player allows you to put the needle back down in a different more positive place in the song and move forward...slowly.

Thanks for saying I help thats very kind, I only seek to remind you of what you already know and we all need that at times. You are an intelligent, resourceful man and things will get better, mostly because you want them too and know its the right thing for you.

Have a lovely day, lots of rest, lots of indulgence and maybe look for a few giggles....I love this, excuse me if at anytime I repeat myself.

hi kermitandpiggy thank you for your kind words crying is away of realising the tension rather than letting it build up ! society expects men not to cry as they think its a sign of weakness ! i will keep you in mind take care david !

Hi Celtic I am sorry you feel so bad at the moment. Maybe a change of meds would help? I would advise you to go back to your doctors and tell s/he how you are feeling anway. Bev xx

Hi Celtic,

I'm 50 yrs old, and been cycling up and down (depressed) most of my life. As I get older and older, there's lots more up and less down. My last deep down was about 6 years ago.

Please remind yourself that there will be an up again, if you just can wait patiently for it. You WILL feel joy in living again. You WILL have energy again. You WILL take pleasure in everyday things again. Just wait, and get through the now.

Something that works for me is staying awake all night and all the next day, and spending as much of the daytime outdoors as I can. It's been a quick, inexpensive lift for me that works right away. I have no idea why, but it lifts my mood up enough to make things tolerable. I do it when I feel like I just can't take it any more.
