From the little you've wrote, I'd say it is nothing to be ashamed of, ci. One step back, two steps forward. The way I look at it is this. Every morning is a new day. We pick up the pieces and do our best. We get points for trying not achieving. Good luck!

Thanks scotchfinger
I've been trying to build myself up and was so proud of how hard I was trying. Your right points for trying not achieving but today I wish I was stronger and achieved more!
I wish I had someone to call and say help today is a bad one but that's not the case. Really don't want to put all my bad days on my husband but he's all I've got! Hoping that vent on here and I'll get through it before his home.

I'm so sorry Ci, that you are having a bad day, my heart goes out to you!!! Bad days are real hard!
Please try not to be to hard on yourself though, even people without depression and anxiety have bad days!
You are an amazing women and you are doing a wonderful job!

Hi ci,
Don't be hard on yourself, it's part of depression to slip backwards from time to time.
It's not your fault and beyond your control.
I feel like talking to someone a lot but don't want to burden them and tire them of my issues.
All the best.

Hi ci,
sorry to hear you were feeling so low. I hate that feeling of not having anyone to reach to and call. I hide away so much about my mental health problems so only have a few people I can speak to honestly, and even then I often put on a brave face. I was just wondering how you're doing now? Maybe you're spending the day with your husband for Australia day?
Kind wishes, Christina

Hey ci
I hope you are feeling better now. I was just wondering if the lost feeling you felt was like, you feel sort of stumped, or bewildered or like nothing is clear?
Hugs
