Hi @Jadejones9596 ,.. sorry to hear you are having a bad day. Crap aren't they... Can you get a review of your meds? Maybe you are not on them long enough or maybe they are not doing the job...an appointment with your gp might be a good idea. How do you find your therapist? Can you speak to them at short notice? Will they take your call , would you get an appointment at short notice?I'm having a seriously bad day with my low mood.
I've been depressed for about 3 years now and I want to reach out and say I'm struggling but I've told people so many times I don't think they'll care too much, they might just think urgh not again
I'm seeing a therapist and taking medication but it's just not getting better. I'm really just looking for some words of comfort. Right now it feels so much easier to reach out to strangers!
That really is incredibly kind of you to message me, I can't tell you how appreciated that is! I'm filling in a review form as we speak, I hadn't thought about it tbh and I looked on my surgery's website and there was a MH medication review form! Amazing!Hi @Jadejones9596 ,.. sorry to hear you are having a bad day. Crap aren't they... Can you get a review of your meds?

I will definitely give it a go watching something funny, I do love Friends!
Really appreciate your suggestions, honestly I am very grateful, im a bit lost for what to do right now so you have been a massive help. Sending a hug back thank you again x
I just love the episode where Ross is fine and he does that little speech... L is for love... ahhh loveOne of my favourite "Friends" moments is the one where the cheesecake gets delivered to the wrong apartment and Rachel and Chandler argue and drop it in the hallway and Joey rocks up, says, "hmmm, what are we eatin'?" and produces a fork from inside his jacket and tucks in.
There are many, many laugh out loud moments in that show.
Watching some comedy is a great way to lift one's spirits.

Much easier, because (in my case) it's awful to tell those who love you that you still feel incomplete.I'm having a seriously bad day with my low mood.

Hope it's good news Tatty xxAlright, I try to promise not to feel for myself anymore - I'm currently awaiting a call back from our eldest son in Japan; he and his family are experiencing financial difficulties due to him not being able to work (he's an English teacher) because his wife's brother-in-law has tested positive for Covid - they all live together; our son and his wife, her sister and husband, and the two boys, our grandson and his cousin. Our grandson (he's 3-years old) is type 1 diabetic. Yeah I'm worried
I've felt this in my bones for days now - that something wasn't right; my husband thinks I'm a witch, maybe he's right - I do love black cats!
Hope you get some good news today. I so know what you mean about feeling it in your bones. I have grown up children and when I hear youngsters talking about wanting a baby, I think blimey, it's not just a baby, it's your whole lifetime from here on in being concerned about your pregnancy, the birth, then worried about them, worried for them, wondering how they're doing, looking out for them and so many other things. That said, you dont really know all that until you've lived it and Im sure I was the same when I was younger, you tend to think of having a baby and a child but not much further imho.Alright, I try to promise not to feel for myself anymore - I'm currently awaiting a call back from our eldest son in Japan; he and his family are experiencing financial difficulties due to him not being able to work (he's an English teacher) because his wife's brother-in-law has tested positive for Covid - they all live together; our son and his wife, her sister and husband, and the two boys, our grandson and his cousin.

Friends is a real go-to show for me, never fails to cheer me up. It must be amazing to be a part of that show, knowing what a difference you've made to people's lives.There's so many brilliant moments.
Ross has loads too.
I love the one in the launderette when that horrible woman is being mean to Rachel.
Dave Schwimmer does some brilliant physical comedy when he walks into the open door of a washing machine and falls over.
They are all brilliant.
And when Joey has on ALL of Chandler's clothes and keeps lunging!
And when Joey has read Rachel's book and keeps joking about her burnin' loins!
Oh........just SO many funny moments.
Im on a roll now................
and when Monica has a cold and is trying to get Chandler to rub her chest with Vick's vapour rub.
ha ha ha - and Monica and Ross's ROUTINE on the New Year's Eve show.
Thank you so much for checking in on me, I feel a bit better this morning, had a great night sleep, makes all the difference doesn't it? Taking every day as it comes!Hope you get some good news today. I so know what you mean about feeling it in your bones.

How are things today, Jadejones? The sun's out here, hope it is wherever you are x
Maybe it isnt poor luck with love.Two of my exes (both of which I truly expected to marry) have had babies in the last year and named them both Edward?! Wtf. My friend said they must have married die-hard Twilight fans so that is the story I'm telling myself to feel better ;P.
In reality, I stupidly checked one of their social media accounts and burst into tears when I saw him snuggling the new baby. I have such poor luck with love. I just feel like I was never good enough to settle down wholly with, and that's doing my head in.
Meanwhile, the other ex with the son named Edward, sent me a dick pic recently but still proclaims his marriage isn't bad, just boring.-- and I am dead ashamed to say ... though he's such a shit head, I am still jealous of his wife somehow. Ugh.
Oh I've been there, so many of my exes have had babies lately or got married and its hard to see. You've probably been told this a million times, have a little social media break and remember things are never as perfect as they seem online (things could be worse, you could have just had a baby with your ex and then find out he's messaging his dick to an ex, you got a lucky escape there!)
