I've had mental health issues since I was 12, probably earlier, and I'll be 21 this year. perhaps you're older than me though, but either way that's so sad and no one deserves it.</P> <P>I'm so sorry that you haven't had support especially from people who are supposed to be professionals, I know exactly how that feels.</P> <P>I'm not sure what else to say and things to suggest and I feel super bad for that, I'm so sorry. But I do want to try and support you and every one on these forums. they're a safe, moderated place and it's supportive and friendly. even a good place to have a laugh and discuss other things besides mental health. for instance some people are thinking of making a book and movie/TV show club on here?</P> <P>welcome to these forums anyway. please take care of yourself, I'm thinking of you. I'm so sorry I couldn't be of any more help.</P> <P>Tayla</P> Sun, 26 Jan 2020 07:33:53 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/depression/the-long-lost-battle/m-p/490282#M42046 Guest_4643 2020-01-26T07:33:53Z
