Dave, this is the kind of thing they put in the magazine I mentioned earlier in the thread. It really does sum things up well.

Hope you are ok - how are your Maisie and Davey?

Dave. I have suffered from it since 1972, and still do. I have been prescribed several tablets, but I have an intolerance to a lot of medication.
I can usually pick myself up, but sometimes I can't.
I hace also educated by brain to tell me when I am really down, and speak to someone. I have seen counsellors etc, but at the end of the day, it really is only me who can help myself , and just get on with life.

Hope you are feeling better.

Have just read your poem for the 1st time and thought it brilliant! I dont think that any one who hasnt been there can really understand even if they try. Just wanted to say to you well done for coming so far.I've been there too and now thankfully I am back at work and doing ok.You can get through this.Be kind to yourself,recovery takes its own time.I wish you well and soon.

Hi Dave.

I have just suggested to Gwen on her thread that she enquires about a charity who would print her poems on a yearly Calendar. It may be that there is also a group you could write for. Just a thought, and it may help with the healing process to be able to bring help to others in the same predicament.

You have obviously touched the hearts of others with just this one, who knows, it may be just what you need to help you on your way to recovery.
