Getting back to work
Well I must admit,I can't believe how difficult it has been to try and get back to work or even get any help to get back. I had my injury 4 years ago and have been looking for something for the last few years but I am getting nowhere. I have tried the Careers Service whom couldn't help because I am

Feeling contestant shame guilt and worthlessness
Hi I'm in my mid 20's and I recently got engaged I suffer from severe depression and it makes it hard for to meet people and keep friends. My mind is tortured all day with feeling of worthlessness. While growing up I was raised in a religious family so every time I did something that my parents didn't

New Here.
Hi there, I've been thinking about joining a help group for some time so finally decided to do it today. I've had problems with my bowels since a young age, from the age of 11 i was diagnosed with a nervous bladder which was terribly embarrassing and i got bullied a lot for it. That's one of the things

Not so new advice?
Reading a newspaper item about Tudor life, I was interested to see that in those days people were generally advised to sleep on their right side as this was believed to prevent indigestion which could lead to " palseys, apoplexeyes, falling down sickness and the like". That would seem to correspond with

Apps!
I know these are aliens to most of us, but I have downloaded one, to help S communicate. Well, I actually downloaded two, but one Touch voice Gold is useless, am now fighting to get my money back. The one we have got, is very basis, but S can use it. You either press words, or type in your own sentence

It's Like Falling Down A Rabbit-Hole...
There was I poodling along...not a bother on me...when I began to wonder whether or not this was too good to be true. I'd reached the 1200's you see in someone's tree and was getting quite blasé...plenty of records to check the facts...the dates were slightly iffy but then dates often are... And it was

Is depression after TBI inevitable?UPDATE
Following my post a month ago re my son's depression following his severe brain injury in November 2013, I thought I'd report some progress... He had definitely lost his mojo - and his sense of humour and motivation - when I last posted and it was sad that he just couldn't see the progress he was making

Not as much of a shock...
I knew something was wrong quite a long time ago; I was so clumsy, bad at sport, had no sense of balance and so on when I was a child. However, it was only when I was 36 (I am now 50) that things started to go noticeably worse. I managed to hide my problems quite well, even with my ex-wife to some degree
