depression

i'm a man, plumb straight, by self control, i'm able to defy detection by the closet observer, my depression.

but underneath the delicacy is still there, the tiredness and agitation by over-work in the paddock of capital and to make good pastimes.

i have a house over-looking the sea, my partner has a new car, away from all this i live in my car, charitable institutions feed me,

my strategies can fail but not in a complete heap of ash,

Hi Roadhawk

Thanks for sharing. I must admit, I don't understand this properly.

Are you able to tell us a bit more about yourself and what is going on at the moment?

Hi Roadhawk

Blue Jane has a point.....I dont understand either but thanks for reaching out as a sufferer with depression

I can feel a ton of pain though.....

The forums are non judgemental as well as a rock solid safe place to post too

I think I understand where you are coming from Roadhawk. Ive had depression now for 21 years and its a mongrel of an illness. (as well as the pain of a major relationship falling apart)

It might not mean very much to you right now but there are many super kind people that can be here for you....no worries at all. I hope you can post back when you are up to it

My very kind thoughts for you and the pain you are going through Roadhawk

You are not alone here...

Hi Roadhawk

Just remembered that I read one of your poems earlier this month (3 August).

Paul has shared a thoughtful post above.

My ex and now my husband suffer from depression so I have seen how much it can impact our lives. I have anxiety and at the moment it is being managed well. Happy to share how this has come about.

We would like to talk to you, hope you can share more.
