Sorry for the downer post. After being on meds I am able to go to work (just) but I feel like something is missing. I am taken on a big role at work (well training to as the lady leaves in a year). I am trying to eat better and drink more water I just want to be healthier. I constantly feel that something is seriously wrong with me and that I can't cope but I am in a good routine now with work . It's just it can come on so quickly and I feel so alone sometimes. I put on a brave face but it is exhausting sad

      Sorry to hear David before my meds kicked in I was crying every single night as soon as I left work and having panic attacks. I still have a long way to go but the meds are helping think of all the positives you have and things to look forward to and I hope you have luck with the psychiatrist I'm going to counselling scary but I think it will help

    Hi, I know exactly how you feel.its horrible trying to pretend that your ok when inside you just feel like running away. Unfortunately that's how depression can be. You feel that everything's going well and then things just turm . But things can change but the only person who is going to help you is you. Please find the strength to talk to your Gp because they really do understand . Remember your aloud to have bad days as long as you can acknowledge what's going on . It took me 30 years to wake up and realise I have depression . Keep us posted😊
