Hi guys, Thought we could do with somewhere to support each other and talk about our difficulties. I am really struggling with my depression and ptsd at the moment which is really really difficult. How are you guys doing today? Xx

    Hey @Past User

    Well done for reaching out for support.

    Sorry to read your struggling with your depression and ptsd. Has anything happened recently to make the depression worse at all? I found this Article that might be helpful here on the site. We are here to support you.

    Speak soon

    This is a nice thread idea, @Past User. :)

    Do keep in mind that you're welcome to start your own threads specifically for anything you'd like support with, too. I've also moved this over to our Health & Wellbeing forum, where it fits a little better and should get some more pick-up.

    Welcome to the community, by the way. :wave:

    Thanks Abi. Nothing significant has really happened it's just everything building up I suppose. I've got a lot going on at home

    Hey Lotus,

    This is a great thread idea!

    You mentioned that you're struggling with depression and ptsd at the moment. It's always relieving to get things off our chest and speak about problems so it's great you've mentioned these things, how are you feeling now?

    We're always hear to listen :)

    Hey Lotus,
    I really like your idea! Is there anything that you can see that would help you feel a little bit relieved and that at the same time wouldn't cause you any legal trouble?
