My intro

Hi all

Not sure how intros should go so well see

I'm 29 work for an IT company ride motorcycles.

I've been to see the head doc suffer from anxiety and depression

I dealt with mild depression for as long as I can remember but 5 years ago a death in the family of someone I held very dear and a failed long term relationship 2 months afterwards really sent me off the deep end.

Since then its been a bit of a spiral down into just being numb

Currently taking meds and have been for the better part of a year. They help with anxiety but not much else currently looking at changing

Hi Tall welcome.

Sorry for your loss, it's so hard isn't it then to have relationship breakdown soon after, knocks ya about aye.

Do you or if not think you'd benefit from seeing a counsellor or Psychologist, they can help us sift through our feelings and give coping strategies, if not good to be able to vent to. A GP can get ball rolling if you feel that could help.

Riding motorcycles, love em, haven't got one but love being on them.

Feel free to talk as often as you like here, this is a great safe place and lovely people who all know pain. No judgement.

Hi mate, I too am new here but this place is an absolute blessing. Losing a loved one is one major issue, but then the loss of a relationship is the double whammy. If it is any consolation the darkness ends eventually, but I recall when I was at my lowest, there was nothing that could console me. Just know that so many on here are going through similar experiences and this site really feels like home. Look after yourself 🙂
