"Been through bad time lately with suffering with this. Dark thoughts as well. I know some posters on here suffer with this. Anyone come through the other side of this shit?

"A number of posters have been yellow carded and told to stay off this thread unless they have anything constructive to add.This is a thread that has been very useful to so many, for any other posters with scores to settle, argue on another thread. This thread is sacrosant.Thank you"

"Peckham, despite everything you've been through you are still here. Agree about nature and environment, that can help massively. There is a book out there called 'bird therapy', you might be interested in."

"Sydders, they say that depression etc reaches a peak for men around their mid to late 40s. If you can get over that hump, you get to the stage when you stop giving a shit and start enjoying life again."

"Sent you a mail 67, but sorry to here this, don’t think any of us want to take any meds but if they help be it short term or for a while then should be done. Its kind of strange in some ways, expect a good few of us, maybe over did things back in or our 20,s and 30,s and those rave days! Taking too many………….meds!!!! for want of a better word, remember reading some stuff that these things may come back to haunt you in later life………not sure how much truth there is in it, but seeing how many are now having issues, it could have some truth to it, or maybe im just more tuned into it and its always been there, but as im getting older I notice more of people my age having mental health issues. Find keeping myself very fit and busy helps a lot. Off into the outback today, no internet for 2 weeks, hope I come back and we have smashed Leicester, Liverpool and in the 5th round of the cup????"

"Over 4 years ago in Singapore my first symptoms, for a disease that took nearly to a year diagnose, were full on TIAs with no bleeds or infarctions . I thought I was having one in Singapore airport ( Changi ) I went to the medical centre there and the nurse calmed me down and it was a panic attack and had several atter in public places. I get a similar panic attack feelings in public with deppression, I keep losing things and today I thought I had lost my card at the till of a shop when I had to pay and freaked out with the queue behind me. Some matters normally trivial I stuggle to cope with. I held off with meds in the phamacy for 2 months and picked them up today a took my first one"

"That is a heart felt read Peckham and glad you came through it make and keep fighting the negative thoughts, chin up mate. Don't worry about the WHOFund, cases like yours are exactly what it was meant for. God knows we'd all rather it was used like it was for you and hopefully give you the leg up you needed to get better than have to send wreaths to fellow WHOers funerals like we have recently. So with that id urge anyone feeling bad to reach out, if nobody else then I'll happily throw my hat in the ring as a sympathetic ear and if needs be use the WHOFund if you aren't able to pay for the help you need, that's what its there for. And regarding Vexed, if anyone took the time to read Peckham's full post you'd see that his comment was in no way whatsoever in poor taste or out of order. It was actually quite nice and caring."

Thought i.was having a heart attack, tight pain across left side of chest an left arm. Bloody scary. All bloods and ECG came back.normal so assume it might be stress related."

Did you read Peckham's post? He called himself it. Was pretty much a specific invite for Vexed. Could be argued Vexed wouldve been a bigger cսnt to ignore it

People digging Vexed out may have missed the sentimental notion of today's put down. Was more of a hug than a slap.

"Peckham 1:31 Mon Jan 20 Re: Anxiety/depression That’s a tough read Peckham. I know Gidea Park Station well, my family home is a short walk from there so would the train every morning. Jumpers are very common unfortunately, as you say there are fast trains running through very often. I’m glad you didn’t go through with it. Don’t feel guilt about the fund, and don’t put yourself under any pressure to pay it back. People didn’t contribute to get it back, they contributed because they wanted to help someone in need. When your back on your feet, chuck a score in the fund and hopefully it will help the next person. Take care, and know there are lots of people here that will always talk to you if you ever find yourself in a dark place."

"Yarmouth 1:05 Mon Jan 20 Re: Anxiety/depression I make you right East Anglian Kiss me Quick hat son. Drink (to get drunk) has always been a mood enhancer, not a mood changer, if you have depression or anxiety it may numb a few hours or it might just bring on a more acute manifestation of your symptoms. that's closely followed by the effects of a hangover, which take a bigger toll on an older body."

Just a thought: No finger pointing but this is a serious thread that may be able to offer some genuine help. It would be useful if we kept any of the standard WHO sqabbling elsewhere?
