West Ham Online

"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"

Take it easy Ted .

"Sounds all positive, Ted...and I'm quite sure one or more people on here will step up to the mark and drink by proxy for you... Best of luck and a happy New Year."

Had 5th endoscope yesterday they banded six more Varices (Varicose Veins) under anesthetic from the oesophagus to the stomach. Another endoscope in a few weeks to see if the bands are still in place and stable...... All the staff were superb and the consultant stressed that if I start drinking again i'll die !!! So a pretty good reason I suppose !!!! but he did take on boared that I was a West Ham supporter ;-)

Pentonville 1:28 Fri Dec 30 cheers mate. Its all very accessible there are free resources here https://mhfaengland.org/mhfa-centre/resources/ They've offered to train me as a trainer if I deliver a number of programmes for them. Hard to say no - multiplier effect.

"Fair play mate, many out there that could do with your help I'm sure"

I'm now a qualified MHFA 1st aider.

And to you Tom let's hope 2023 is a happy and prosperous one for you.

"Tough time for many, best wishes to all, wishing you all a peaceful Christmas."

"Moncurs Putting Iron 4:13 Wed Dec 21 ''you are never alone, WHO is here*'' In reality we are all alone, but I appreciate the gesture, and thanks."

"May you all get the Christmas you want/need, you are never alone,WHO is here* Oh and Zico you aren't someone who needs a kick up the pants fella but we all need a sounding board to help us focus our thoughts or simply remind us we are part of something. Big Love. MPI .*As long as a good natured cunting off counts as community and company to you, I know it does for me."

"Well done to all, that have somehow managed to keep going and improve their mental health, a big thank you to all of those in the background who have helped others through their difficulties. If people need confidential help I am leaving my personal email address as unfortunately the flashing yellow envelope does not always work, and if I can't help I can be in touch with a number of posters who can. Good luck to all, hope you are all able to have a decent Christmas My email address is [email protected] will also put this on the opening post"

"Pents, Bruno, MPI and all others who helped give me a kick up the backside a couple of weeks ago best wishes for Christmas and the New Year. In the words of Rocky Balboa - ""The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward."" Thankfully I am a short arse so in my case I may just duck!"

"Pents All the best mate, good to see you’re in better spirit And best wishes to all who have had their grief this year, may 2023 be brighter for all"

I’m sure many will have problems this Christmas but I wish you all well. How’s it all going Pentonville? I hope you’re doing fine at this lonely time mate. And all those in a similar situation. I wish I could help you all individually. Remember that every human being is special. Even when it seems otherwise. Merry Christmas everyone.

"WH67, pleased to hear things are improving some. I was about to say the same as Zico, Citizens advice, used them once when made redundant and they were quite helpful although only part-time and obviously had a heavy case load, so had to keep chasing them. This was 25 years ago and I know they have cut back on legal aid since so may not be relevant, however it maybe worth enquiring exactly how you apply/qualify for legal aid if available to you? They suggested legal aid to me for unfair dismissal, but I settled out of court so never used them, but I remember several legal aid lawyers calling me and very keen asking if I wanted them to take up my case for many months later as they didn't know I had settled, I think these were probably juniors who wanted the experience, still everyone has to start somewhere."
