Depression

I can’t wait for DA to get to this fives, get himself in shape and throw Stella about like an empty tracksuit. Get this on the P&B fight night card. Shandon/Deontay can train Stella, he’s forever getting black eyes and bleeding noses

Over the last few weeks I’ve being doing a LOT of thinking about my life, and how I’ve thrown it away and have massively fucked it up. It really got me down to the point of thinking some pretty dark thoughts (suicidal). I was struggling with sleep and just feeling crappy and how much I have let myself down.

You probably have let yourself down in some ways, I think almost everybody has. The key to that is remembering that that's just part of life.

I don't have anything like as much money put away as I should have, I haven't put in enough effort at my job and as a result am not as far up the ladder as I should be considering I'm pretty much a natural at it, I've made pretty poor lifestyle choices which may well lead to health trouble down the line, I've lost touch with some good mates down to laziness.

We all do it in different ways. None of us are really that bright. Just start from where you are and make wee changes. See below, but I personally find post-it notes helpful.

What gets me through first few weeks is just taking one day at a time, knowing at the end of each day I’ve done the right things and nothing stupid like a beer by myself or something, and that it’s just another step towards the right result.
 

 

Sounds daft, but I've taken to leaving a post-it note on my door which says 'Don't buy bevvy today - you'll feel shite". It's helped me cut out the boredom drinking at home on nights with nothing to do. I've not had a drink alone in the flat for a week. Doesn't sound much, but typically at least once a week I'd have sat in the flat getting pished by myself, just because. Then I'd wake up the next day with a hangover wondering why the f**k I'd done that.

My wee note seems to work. I've not stopped drinking, I was out with a mate on Saturday and am going out again this Friday, but the wee note seems to have helped each day.

I’m fucking lonely.
Also spent several days in hospital this week with serious heart arrhythmia , 200 bpm is pretty serious apparently and I’m allergic to aspirin so that’s our the window.
I’m sad, depressed, scared and ,genuinely fucked.
Merry Christmas

When you wake up in the morning open your eyes and it's pitch black even on the brightest of days, when everything and I mean everything is just about as difficult as it could be and its lmpossible to focus on anything other than getting through the next 60 seconds, then the next 60 seconds and so on, when the only slight relief is closing your eyes at night, and sometimes you are not bothered whether you wake up or not, 15 years ago, I was that soldier, never forget there is always someone willing to listen and help, no matter what you think you are not alone

Been reading over the last few pages and can relate to a lot of stuff. Hope everyone is ok over the next few weeks. Don't drink to get away from feeling down it makes things ten times worse. If your friends don't get it then they're not worth knowing.
Have a drink like you enjoy a nice juice or piece of food. That's how I view it now. You wouldn't eat 10 sandwiches so why drink ten pints in one go?
I hate the machismo attitude to drinking in Scotland its pathetic.

So do I. I should love it as well having kids but it's awful for some reason.

Being single with no kids etc has made me think it’s just because I see everyone coming together with theirs. Half blamed my ex for she always made a big deal of it (as did her family) but I just couldn’t be fucked with it then either. Days of nothing except expectancy that you’re “enjoying yourself”. Feels a real struggle round this time of year for me.

Well I truly fucked up, Christmas Day on my own got to me and between about 3pm and 8am on Boxing Day tanked a liter and 3/4 of vodka (don’t even like vodka)

Was found face down and unconscious On thy floor on my bathroom, some interesting bruises, blood alcohol of 0.465% and 4 days in hospital with apparently encephalopathy and should probably be in a coma or dead.

Stupid, stupid c**t!

Glad you’ve survived to tell the tale. Once you get most of the way through a bottle of vodka anything can happen.

It's a daft thing to do, aye, but lots of us do it anyway. Good you're still here to tell us about it.

How's today?

I am better. Doing some meditation and relaxation from an app Pacifica.
Amazingly none of my daughters have disowned me or hate me and just want to see me get well, which is real love and very humbling
I have been very lucky and I really don’t want to blow this now.
Thanks for all the good wishes guys and girls of P&B

Did your girls know that you were going to be on your own at Christmas?
