Hi Bronwyn,

I wanted to say hello and welcome. Sorry I’m a little late...

Your post moved me. Like Bethie, I can also relate to how you’re feeling. ”...it’s like a constant hole inside me...I’m lost” was very sad and poignant. You sound so down and disheartened.

I hope you feel comfortable writing more here (but only if you wish). The option to share more is always there if you would like. Sometimes sharing is helpful but as I said, only if you feel comfortable doing so.

Caring thoughts,

Pepper

hi Bronwyn, I'm not sure whether you are still checking your post for people to meet but I hope so, because many people including myself have also suffered from anxiety and depression, so you're amongst many people who have had these illnesses, so hope we hear back from you. Geoff.

Hello Bronwyn,

Its brave to allow people to see how much we are hurting and how vulnerable we feel, so I take my hat off to you!

So I suppose what I was wondering is what else is in you? I know that there is a huge hole which is the face of your anxiety and depression and I truly get that it's ever-consuming and that you might feel like that's all there is, but, there is something else no matter how small sometimes we just have to sift through all the other stuff before we see and recognise it.

I hope you get the chance to look.

I hope you are treating yourself kindly and looking after yourself.

I hope you know you are not alone.

Be strong and be brave.

Jo
