"and the other thing was the '20 second cold shower' a day thing. I don't know whether it's a placebo, but I've found it makes you a lot more alert and rational, not just straight after, but for the rest of the day and life in general."

Re: Anxiety/depression
"I've had things go on over the years to have some understanding of a few things that have been mentioned on this thread, so hope that these couple of suggestions don't come across as trivial. I would recommend gardening as a brilliant way to take your mind off things. Above all and without realising it, I think it instills patience into a person, the results are hardly ever instantaneous, you just have to chip away and even just one of the dozen things you've planted flowers or grows fruit, then it'll have been worth it. You end up taking that approach to everything else. it does something to you and ingrains other ways of thinking into you, that modern life doesn't. There was graffiti near my place reading ""gardening is the most revolutionary thing you can do""....I used to think 'what a load of hippy, dippy shit'....years on, I can kind of see there's some truth to it. I think most cities will have places where if you do have mental health issues and don't have access to a garden, they'll have schemes going to get you involved somewhere,"

"Hey Peckham, pick yourself up and go again. What is that saying in the Army? 'Victories are not won buy huge pushes and bold advantages-they are won by creeping forward an inch at a time holding your ground for dear life then tomorrow going again. You're a tough fucker I'd spend an entire war shoulder to shoulder with gratefully. You've seen more shit than most of us put together and you've been in worse conditions than this. Are you going to let the fucking rent boys be behind your demise? Not on our watch mate. Please keep reaching out. WHO did a bit towards getting you home from Spain to make your peace with mum and I am sure most of us have been roaring you on. I know you probably don't feel like it at the moment but you've been inspirational. We need characters like you who REFUSE to be beaten down by the nastiest government of our lives. With a fair wing they'll be out on their arses come Friday. Your mindset will improve mate- you've just got to hang on. You're more loved than you think you are and we're all rooting for you, I promise. Good luck mate x"

"Peckham, Pentonville has not abandoned you, he has his own problems right now and needs to focus on himself for a bit. Just get through the trial, they are still offering you the bounty despite the eviction. Keep that focus, please don't leave us feeling we have failed you, like I feel about Gavros. :-("
Re: Anxiety/depression
"Gutted beyond words, my landlord Stoll mansions and Chelsea FC have ordered an eviction and injunction on me after some manic episodes and being bullied, sticking up for myself and now facing being homeless. Stopped the cocaine thanks to an amazing key worker at Shepherds Bush TURNING POINT drugs and alcohol well being ( highly recommended ) but still self harming and only wishing to join my Mother ( die hard hammer - literally ) in heaven. Had Pentonville for support, but as per my form think was too much for him. been through so many next of kins whilst hospitalised. Problem is everyone has own battles. Nothing beats unconditional love of Mothers. If you have your Mum still alive , ring her weekly or daily. Once they have gone you may regret not being so much in contact. Left home 16 , only requainted with Mum and back in country after years abroad, only bonded with my Mother whilst she was dying in covid. Being homeless does not scare me. How to commit suicide is a concern and trying not to kill this bully where I live and via arson destroy my landlords office and prevent Chelsea stamford bridge expansion. Blue cunts. I am not angry, just self harming to stop harming others. All the alcoholics and Chelsea cunts where I live trying to bully me but Police have seized all knives ( seriously ). Miss Pentonvilles support but have mental health team drop meds twice a day. Have a barrister for court on Thursday, a homeless charity for veterans evicting a veteran for not wanting a 100 year old veterans complex from being destroyed by Chelsea."

"Under London’s gray and storied sky, Where the River Thames flows quietly by, There lies a club with iron and grit, West Ham United, in hearts they sit. From Boleyn Ground to the London Stadium, Echoes of chants create a grand coliseum, Claret and blue, colors so true, Forged in the hearts of the faithful crew. Bobby Moore's legacy, a captain’s pride, A heritage that won't subside, From the terraces, songs fill the air, With passion and loyalty beyond compare. The Irons' spirit, never to bend, In victories and defeats, they transcend, For in the heart of East London's frame, West Ham United stands, proud in name. Through the ups and downs, they rally and fight, Under floodlit nights and daylight bright, With dreams of glory, and tales untold, West Ham United, forever bold. COYI"

"Quick update and word of thanks. I posted recently about job shakes ups and long term redundancy with several date changes and how it was getting me down. Well I am staying put, wiser and more open to change if it happens again and with a plan of my own. Thanks all for your sage advice and just listening. Onwards and upwards and ready to pay my good fortune forward."

Re: Anxiety/depression
"@ Darlo Debs - So sorry I missed your posts, change in circumstances means I am far less able to be on the site or this thread all my best wishes and positive thoughts coming your way, as an atheist I cannot thoughts and prayers and I am not sure Farts and Hairs will be a comfort but rooting for you girl ;-) @chevy your post is heavy but your style is stoic and matter of fact, I really admire that. Kudos. Hope you get to or stay in a good place for you. @Peckham WHO knows mate, WHO knows and accepts you at your worst, your best and everything in between. We *Might* show it with insults and various degrees of massive cuntery but we still do. Reach out when you are able and see this site with a massive collective sigh of relief. Hope to hear from you sometime soon"

Re: Anxiety/depression
I got a calf pain a few years back then shortness of breath when I walked. Turned out it was DVT (deep vein thrombosis) so they put me on a Xeralto (blood thinner). Stopped using it after 6 months then same thing happened in the other calf. After 3 years I stopped taking them (not advised by my docs) but as I wasn’t working from home anymore sitting on a wooden barstool on a laptop for 4 hours at a time. Nothing since then but after a football injury I had a random blood test and found out I had haemochromitosis which is a genetic condition where the body doesn’t get rid of the Iron in your blood. Apparently it’s common with people with Celtic decent. So now I have to go to the cancer day unit every fortnight and get a pint of blood taken out although I’m now only having to go once only every 6-7 months as the levels are pretty much down to normal. But my sisters are having the same stuff. Still weird being in a ward where your having blood removed while chemo patients next to me and opposite are having stuff put in.
