Aw Lauren hugs, what have you done about depression in the past? I've been on and off of pills for depression for years but they make me feel like pooh so when I start to recognise it coming back I try and fight it off and talk about it straight away although it's so hard, painfully hard even trying to motivate myself to do it
but I know I'll feel better.
I have a good sort out and tidy my house, take my kids out even just for walks or to the park. Just getting out of the house helps. I find eating healthy foods and doing just a bit of excersize gives me a bit of a pick me up. I do think it's important to try and get yourself out of it before it gets any worse.
As for unloading on here I feel that's what this sites for. I think I'd struggle to cope and not just the diet if it wasn't for this site.
Have you got family near you that you could just go and have a cuppa with? Not even to talk about your feelings with them, just for company. That helps too, just being with people. Although i like my own company and when I feel rubbish I can't be doing with "people" but I do feel better after meeting with friends etc.
It's horrid isn't it but you'll be fine. You've had a mad few months busy with job etc and sometimes what seems like a disaster actually isn't and things can be sorted.
I'll shut up now coz I'm going on but I do know how you feel. Things are bad here at the mo for me and my little family but I'm sure nothing a change of house and area won't sort. However much I wanna bury my head in the sand and hide, for my kids sakes I've gotta fight.
