Hi all,
I'm new to this forum. I'd like to introduce myself. I'm 40 years of age, female. My interests include music (any genre), reading a great novel, watching comedy, Restuaranting, and learning new things. I suffer from depression and anxiety. Depression feels very lonely for me. I'd like to reach out for some support. Thank you.

Great to hear Mocha Delight xx
I'm ok today - it's the lonely nights that are most depressing. I want to stop crying. I wish my traumatic flashbacks would just end already. I'm in the process of writing to the Victorian Equal Opportunity & Human Rights Commission, Minister for Health (Jenny Mikakos), Minister for Mental Health (Martin Foley), and Premier, Daniel Andrews regarding unethical treatment by some health and mental health professionals. I lived through family violence for many years and recently got set-up by these health care professionals. They've forged my patient files, damaged my property (to make it look like a suicide attempt). They drugged me without my informed consent or knowledge. It is ILLEGAL!! They've abused their position of power and now covering up. The system is broken and needs fixing. They cannot treat people in this manner. One who has done absolutely nothing to harm anyone or me. I'm super p*&s%d off and traumatised.

Hi Bluberry
I am so sorry about the things you've been through. I really wish you all the success possible in getting responses to your letters. It's horrible.
On the novel stuff.... The Millenium Series... the most amazing books I've ever read.
Certainly made me feel the GIRL POWER on full. LOVE them.
Have you found anything even close to that brilliance?
I stopped looking lol.
Just into Dr Joe Dispenza now.... my bf sent me 2 Brene Brown books for my bday but they won't arrive for a while... they're called "Daring Greatly" and "Braving the Wilderness".
Music - mixed. I LOVE Summer Time from Porgy and Bess and the really old film clip is gorgeous. Into Hozier atm too.
What are you doing to keep yourself busy / entertained during lock down? I bought a knitting book to knit cute toys but after I bought it, I read it was all 'knitting in the round', so I'm not impressed lol, IDK how to do that!
I have to go, my high anxiety rescue dog is raising merry hell tonight... barking, trying to eat the cat, carrying on and the kids need to sleep!
Love EM

Hey Ecomama,
Thank you for caring enough to respond to me. 🙂 xx
I hope that I won't get ignored. I keep thinking that no-one will care. Why should anyone care or believe a 'crazy' person like me? This is the kind of thing the 'professionals' made up about me in my patient files. As I've said, I got set-up. It's a long story. I've got a narcissistic evil twin sister who has caused damage to my reputation for many years behind my back.
I haven't found any books even close to the brilliance of the Millenium trilogy. Not even close. It is a sad loss to us all when he passed away - we lost a brilliant author 😞
Funnily enough, I've watched more T.V in the almost 6 months than I ever did. I never used to watch tele. I surf the internet, read, I just joined Twitter, I cook & clean when I can.

I really hope you do get heard.
I've also been traumatized by mental health and they have a huge file of b.s written about me. I am still being drugged without my consent nearly 2 years later. All I want to do is clear these ludicrous medical records and be free of them.
They hurt a lot of people.
