"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"

"COT - Feel for you mate, it's proper shit at the moment but hopefully with the weather getting better, you'll be able to get out and about more. What you planning on spending the savings on mate?"

"I have always suffered with anxiety but it has got a lot worse during this lockdown. Work has kept me bust to a degree but apart from that having the freedom of going where you want, eating out, visiting familiy and friends, going on holiday etc literally taken away from you has been a total head fuck. Since lockdown (all of them during a year) because of not spending any cash I have saved a fortune, well not a fortune but close to ÔøΩ5k I would normally have spent on hols, eating out, travel etc BUT instead of wasting it on mundane shit I have not bought anything apart from good food. My life like many others is work, eat, sleep, TV on repeat with NOTHING to keep me going or to look forward to - some days instead of being active and walking etc I lay in bed or on the sofa staring at the TV but not actually paying any attention. Like many this has a had a massive effect on my mental health - one minute I seem Ok the next I am argumentative, snappy and rude and have even made my parents cry because I have been rude to them on the phone. At one point I said ""I might as well be dead"" Although the rollout of the vaccine has been good I see no way out of this back to 'normal' - we'll still be restricted on travel, activities, meeting friends and family etc. What I can see happening is an attitude of ""fuck this"" by the summer and people doing what they want - not ideal but people have now had enough - this will probably cause another wave if not as severe as this one and we will be back to further restrictions. I feel more for the kids today growing up in this shit. I have lived my life, childhood, holidays, pubs, clubs. I'll go back to slobbing on the sofa now"

"Bill - Cheers, but I don't want any sympathy mate. I've had the believe for years now that life is basically SHIT. It's primarily boring, repetitive and mundane. Then there's the pressure, responsibilities, and pitful's, etc, and the majority of people I find are cunts. So what's to like?? You just have to enjoy the good bits when they come around, like watching us win, a good night out, a holiday/trip, etc. The rest of it is mundane, boring shit imo. Anyhow, that's it for me on this thread. I'm off out to look for White Pony :-)"

"Bolt/Manuel. You have my sympathy. Never been a sufferer of anxiety myself but Iv'e seen the state my Mrs can get into as a result of it. Also noticed a few people who when sitting down seem to be tapping their feet to a sound no one can hear,this by all accounts is a classic sign of deep anxiety. I wish you both well."

"Hello folks, been a while since I’ve posted on this thread. All ok here - but got a text alert from my GP today saying I was being invited for my Covid vaccine. Figured it was a hoax one - I’m 42, no underlying health conditions (that I’m aware of) etc - so gave them a call. Turns out, that as I’ve been on a certain anti-depressant within the last year (stopped in March last year), my health authority considers me ‘at risk’ with an underlying condition and so I’m booked in for next Wednesday. Anyone else had the shout yet?"

"Yes, Block, I know exactly what you mean, it's total despair and dread. There's an old saying that things always feel better in the morning (once you get up that is) then just hope you have a good or better day. My escape is I can go out and have a beer in the sun at days end, it's the only thing that gets me through, tbh. Fuck being tea total in this world. Hang in there Block, son, there are always things worth living for, ie Spuds at home on Sunday :-)"
