Dons_1988 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Said it before but exercise has done far more for me fighting mental health issues than any NHS treatment I was offered over 8/9 years. Works been a bit more stressful recently and made some mistakes that can often be the start of a bad cycle for me. Went for a run this morning pre work and it has absolutely cleared my head for the day coming. Couldn't recommend it enough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dee Man Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 @DA Baracus regarding the "it's too late" and thinking you've missed the boat in life, my old dear didn't start training to be a nurse until she was in her 50s, with no previous experience in anything remotely like healthcare. I'm not saying you should be a nurse but there's one example. Have you ever taken the Dundee boys up on their offer of a game of 5s? If the footage of @Melanius Mullarkey is anything to go by then as long as you can walk you will at least be on their level, footballwise. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Blades Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 I think I’m not alone in thinking this thread is by far & away the most helpful & important thread on the entire site.It’s really heartening to see virtual strangers reach out & offer advice, company etc.@D.A. Baracus if that’s what people who only really know you through your posts on here, find you witty & intelligent & have real concern over your wellbeing, just think what your friends, colleagues & family feel.I hope you get through this & please don’t stop posting. No-one should ever be embarrassed by anything posted on this thread, nothing you’ve posted is remotely embarrassing & if it helps just a fraction, it’s well worth it. Like others have said, I’m happy to receive PMs if you (or others) want a tiny bit of outside perspective. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got myself all sorted now, but went through my own periods of "canny cope" times in getting to this point. It might just help to get a (friendly) outside perspective from the brotherhood that is P & B. A thread like this genuinely brings out the best in the contributors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJ2 Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Loneliness can be an utter c**t. It really, really can. When I’m at lowest, loneliness really hits hard. You aren’t alone though and you have people who care about regardless what your brain is telling you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
