I have been unfortunately been scammed by dodgy car mechanic which is now affecting my wellbeing. I never had any issue with my health before. Just a little bit of morale support can hopefully assist and get through this issue.

Hi there Georges24,

Welcome to the Beyond Blue forums, and thank you for telling us a little bit about what has been going on for you.

I'm so sorry to hear that you've been scammed by a dodgy car mechanic - it makes me so mad when people who are supposed to help you, take advantage and do the wrong thing!

I was wondering if you could tell me a bit more about what's happened with your wellbeing and health? I can empathise with your distressing situation, and I'm sorry that it is impacting you the way it is.

The forums are a great place to receive moral support! It's not an easy step to post and reach out for some support, so I'm really proud and glad that you had the courage and strength to do so. We are all here for you, so let us know how things are going with you and we will support you.

Hi Georges24

Cheers for posting- we are here to listen and create community- no problem is to small! Scams can be disorientating and frustrating- what your feeling is totally valid and healthy response.

Would you like to run us through what happened and how this has impacted you? You don't have too, no pressure at all. We can just focus on providing wellbeing support and a listening ear if you prefer.

Sending kindness,

Hi Blake, thanks for your reply. It's annoying and stressful being in this kind of situation. I am trying my best to take control over this by not thinking too much about it, presently (up + & - down) thoughts
A little bit of morale support and guidance are greatly appreciated and hope with time i will be 100 per cent anxious free
Kind Regards, Georges24
