Don't know where else to go.

[Strawbs86]

I'm new here, and I'm not sure that this is the right place for me, but I don't know where else to go or who to see.

I have depression and anxiety and a variety of other issues, as a result of things in my childhood. It's ruining my marriage, and I'm sure is affecting my children.

I don't think this is the right place to talk about it, but I just don't know where else to go.

Please help me.

Hi Strawbs86,

Just wanted to say hi and welcome you to these forums.

This is absolutely the right place to talk about it. I've been here for a few years now and I've seen so many posts like yours, so you're not alone with what you're going through. Some members like to share what's going on, use this as a space to vent, or whatever works for them.

Maybe you'd like to share more of what's going on? Or maybe you'd like to see a therapist to get some advice? How you use this space is totally up to you.

I hope that you enjoy being here.

Hi strawbs86

HI Strawbs

First of all I want to welcome you to these forums and these forums are the right place for you to vent your feelings. I encourage you to scroll down a bit and you can vent your feelings by starting a post in the Anxiety or Depression sections you will also find many other posts from others with similar issues.

If you want to talk about how it is affecting your marriage and kids then I encourage you to post in the Relationships section.

Basically where you post depends on what you wish to talk about.

We look forward to seeing a post from you in one of those sections. This section is to simply introduce yourself.

We are all here for each other.

Irene.

Hi Gigi8

You, too, are also welcome to vent your feelings on these forums. I encourage you as well to start your own post in the Anxiety section if you haven't already.

The reason why many of us are here is that we do not know Where Else To Go. But we all have our own areas that we each relate to, be it Anxiety, Depression, Carers, Suicide, Relationships and more.

If either of you feel like a break from venting your hurts there is always the social section also. Some posts there are incentives to think more positively about ourselves.

Irene.
