Hi Therese8,

I think it is great you have found the forums. I joined these forums when I was looking for help with my mental health and they really did help me so much. While you're here, feel free to tell us what is happening so we can offer some advice and support. Just to let you know, these forums are a safe non judgemental space and most if not all of us here suffer or have suffered from a range of mental health concerns so we all just want to support each other through the dark times.

Please, post back as much as you like.

My best for you,

Jay

hello Therese, welcome to the forum, and no one is ever the same, some unfortunately suffer from illnesses while others are lucky not to, that's their good luck and I am very pleased and happy for them, while those who come to a site that centres around depression wanting for others who have been through this themselves to help them, that's good, because there are people who will understand what you are going through, but more so, know you are struggling with depression of any type.
It is important that you feel as though you can trust us and all you have to do is just mention something you are having concerns about, it could be anxiety, relationship problems, addiction and the list goes on, and even if you don't know why you've posted your first comment means that something is troubling you, and please never be frightened in telling us what you want, there will be others who have experienced similar issues and know what are trying to say, and all of us on this site have been through our own terrible times, so we know what you are saying, so please come back to us when you feel comfortable and please it's not good to leave it too long, simply because whatever it is will only mount up, and that's not what we want to happen. Geoff.
