It's good to talk, you most certainly aren't alone and people care about how you feel 
So, how's everyone managing lately? If you need to air out anything or vent, the support is here for you to speak your mind

I'm a little rocky today after a co-worker and so called friend made me think I was losing my mind big time last night.
It's all cleared up now and was a mistake on her part, but my "people = danger" alarm us ringing big time again and my confidence in being able to trust has taken another low blow at a time when it was already floored. |

Cried 3 times at work yesterday. Not out of anything in particular just because people asked how I was.
Stood in my kitchen on Wednesday shouting out loud how boring life was. It's just a never ending conveyor belt of boredom.
I hate being on my own. I hate not having someone to share things with. I just can't be arsed with anything.
I am going to the Dr's next week after I've had a few days away.
This is not where I'd hoped my life would be. I fucking hate it.
And now I can't even get some dick to take my mind off it. |

I’ve really struggled with something for quite some time, but I had an epiphany recently that’s motioned me into action to find a solution. So, I’m feeling quite positive today. Whether tomorrow will be the same, who knows. I can only control the right now. |

I hope there's other family around to help share the strain with you, and carers you're able to reply on. Lockdown has been so tough keeping family distant, I hope they're able to master the art of voicecalling / zoom at least! Hang in there |

Sorry to hear this. I'm the same I can wear my heart on my sleeve and when my faith in people's kindness is shaken it's all too easy to retreat and clam up and give in to misanthropy. There are decent people out there, most aren't the best at thinking about others but I hope you can keep the motivation to seek them out and surround yourself with the sort of people you want to be around
p.s. in my experience, work friends rarely turn out to be REAL friends |

I'm F.I.N.E. , but I'm managing the best I can in my own f#ck#d up way.
The fab forums can be a wonderfully supportive place, Threads like this attract people who are struggling, people who are willing to help, and those who help even when they are struggling themselves.
I urge anybody who is having a hard time to speak up & accept the help that anybody offers, if things are bad then speak to your GP, Samaritans, Mind. Talk to your family & friends too. If you notice that somebody you know has had a change in behavior (withdrawn, low mood, irritable ect) then offer them some support & reassurance that they aren't alone, it doesn't take much to save a life. |

Sending out a virtual hug for your rough week x
With how connected we are in modern times I hope you're able to maintain links to people who I guarantee would leap at the chance to share things with you and inject some excitement into your days. Too often I let myself constantly assess the 'state' of where my life is at and get down because of it without stopping to count all things I should be thankful for. I hope you're able to shift the focus from what you don't have to what you could and do have x I can say for sure if you ever want to chat and take your mind off things I'd love to chill and have a laugh |

That's really optimistic, hurray! Was it a personal epiphany or can you share? |

Thanks. I think it's a bit of burn out thanks to the old 'rona as well. Hopefully some time in Cornwall will do me good but as I say, also going to speak to the Dr.

I'm one of those that goes to the doctor and my typical response is to answer that I'm fine. Some of the best advice I was given years ago by a nurse was to keep a diary and take it with me. Not sure if it will help others but it got me the help I needed x |

One of my biggest fears is somebody asking how i am, so i know how upsetting it can be.
You're not alone! I'm sure you have friends on here you can share things with and talk to, I know its not the same as having somebody in the same room to talk to and share things with, but its better than having nobody at all (trust me, i know)
Going to see your Dr. is a big first step, be honest with them about how you feel and accept any help they have to offer... please.
You're stronger than you think! Stay safe. |

This is really solid advice! My therapist advised the same and to rate my feelings through the day the good and the bad. It's great for being able to hone in on what things made you feel better or worse. Then moving on from there you can start to see ahead to avoid those things and steer your day towards the parts that made you feel better |

I'm not even a 40 year old milf lol no babies, no man, no wedding, no one wants me. (you're gonna be sorry you started this thread soon lol).
I see so many of my friends get together with people time after time. People I know have been married 3 times or more but I can't find one guy who thinks I'm special.
I know relationships aren't all that matters in life but I do wonder what the fuck is wrong with me sometimes.
Think I'll step way from the keyboard in a bit, let someone else have a turn lol. |

That's a good tip. May also help to look back at dark days and see that today may be dark but it's brighter than the really dark days. |

Hey talk as much or as little as you want there's no judgement here! Oh I respectfully disagree on the not being a milf part less the direct acronym & more the meaning behind it
Is that what you want or what you think is *expected* of you? Don't let norms and arbitrary standards get in the way of your own persuit of happiness If they happen to align with yours then great, you'll find someone that measures up to YOU and not you measuring up to anything else |

Personally, agreed. It was some much needed headspace and break from the commute, office, repeat, life draining grind. |

Oh, I still went into the office every day but it was lovely having empty buses, clear roads and the town centre being quiet and peaceful.
I miss how life was during the lockdown  |

Motivation, Posivity and a Sheer desire not to give in to fear has been what's kept me going. On a good day all three. Its when it a zero I feel step back and get at least one back. It was the second week of July an epithany. A school friend died and it really hurt that is when I thought if there's anything you want to do it now! Life's too short! I'm sorry to hear the heartache out there. Talking does help and that's coming from a Single guy who doesn't like to post. Don't be afraid to reach out and no shame in admitting not coping. In fact it's a strength x |

I’ve been wavering on the edge for a while since I had a health scare. So I decided to make an effort get out there and change things in my life. The things i tried to change haven’t really worked and I feel let down and rejected. Everything is now riding on a interview I had last week to change my career path, if that goes wrong I fear I won’t be able to handle the blow. |

You made it through the other things that didn't work as well as you hoped. That means you are strong. Maybe they just need tweaking. Brighter things to come. |

Had a bit of a week of it. Got the news my moms got cancer on Monday, I can deal with that and all it entails, even my siblings who will have more to put me down for. But I’ve 2 children with disabilities who have struggled with the news and have been distraught, angry, questioning and a whole lot more. Trying to cope with them is draining me. I was planning a day out but my youngest has invited himself along too. I need some headspace, just to be myself and not mom, sister, daughter, carer x |

I'm on a rollercoaster. Split with hubby & he bought me out & kept the family home. Our 18 yr old son has stayed at the house he grew up in..unsurprisingly (he does have a bedroom at my new place). I see him a couple of times a week (he's busy) but I don't feel like a Mum any more..it's breaking my heart |

OK let's go for it.
I'm a wreck, I've pretty much failed in everything I've ever tried to do.
Even so, I stupidly tried to start my own business believing that I could overcome any shortfalls by working bloody hard and that I'd if worked if would improve my life and give me a confidence boost.
A year on I'm shot to pieces, worn out, confidence through the floor and I'm a bit of a walking shambles.
I'm now in debt, I've wasted a small inheritance that I got and it would have been easier to take the pound notes into the garden and set fire to them.
I continue on fabs even though everything about it screams at me that I'm wasting my time.
You did ask. |

I could never do my own business, I'd be shit at it. You tried and that's amazing. It sounds like you gave it your everything and that's all anyone can do.
Fab is different. Pretty much all men struggle on here, it's the nature of the site unfortunately. Especially at the moment.
Hope you have a good day. X |

I've got over some sickness and feeling physically better, things are going good at work and things are good at home. I should be thankful and happy for what I have but these days my smiles dont last long anymore. If I ever accidentally show signs of not feeling myself I deflect with humour and put a positive spin on everything for not wanting to bring people down and not wanting to worry anyone, but every day is filled with self reflection. Out of that comes self doubt, and great plans to change and develop mentally are thought up but never followed through on because the self doubt creeps in and shoots them down. At the end of the day I say to myself "that's life, people have actual problems, stop feeling sorry for yourself. Tomorrow is another day" and that snaps me out of it till tomorrow  |

Try to understand whether you can affect the things you are worried about. Try to push away the things you can’t do anything about.
Make a decision when you’re going to worry about things - not now - some time when it’s more convenient. You might find you forget to worry about them then.
Things you can do something about - make an action plan. Break them up into small achievable steps. Reward yourself for each step you take. |
