@Former-Member
we are here for you anytime. xxoo
You know I still feel like you and I've had 5 yrs of therapy. I am about to see my new psychologist and i am a bit nervous about her. Not knowing what she's like, what she'll say to me and what our sessions will be like. But i have to try.
Keep going @Former-Member, it does take time but you will get through. I really hope that tomorrow is a better day for you.
@Appleblossomsorry to hear about your neck, hope you feel better soon. Yeah i know all too well about calling the CAT team. I've had some great people to chat to but unfortunately I had a terrible guy yesterday and he has hurt me by what he said to the pont that now i am scared to call them again. i hope you're okay.
Take care @Former-Member and @Appleblossom xxxooo

@Former-Member 6 months is not a lot of time in therapy. Go easy on your expectations of yourself.
I wont have a competition, but am long in tooth and I started in 1984 ... on & off .. it takes what it takes.

Re: What stops you?
@Appleblossom. I think I should clarify that it's 5 yrs in total this month I've been in therapy minus the 5 months I wasn't allowed to have it. It's been 6 months back with my old therapist. I had expected to go forward more than I have. It's a me issue not her.
I hope things pick up for you. Stay strong with the boundaries, I think once they are established life will be different for you. I will have to follow in your footsteps soon enough. Take care
Thanks @Former-Member @utopia @Shaz51 for your support. I know you all have your problems currently too. I've been worried about you @Former-Member as well, you've been quiet. Thinking of you 💜🤗

Re: What stops you?
Thanks @Faith-and-Hope. You and everyone else have lifted my spirits a little. I read on here everyday people who get to the point of feeling it's too hard to keep going. Today I felt like I can't see how I will ever get passed this and how I will be able to ever provide for my kids. I know I'm no different to everyone who suffers this recurring depression. Finding the light when it's been dark a while is really hard. Thank you for your positive outlook and caring. It means a lot to me. I have felt so self centred on the forum lately too. I hope to get passed this soon. I am so grateful for everyone's support and so sorry I am unable to give much lately.
Hopefully I've put the worst thoughts away for a while. Goodnight all 💜🤗

Re: What stops you?
I feel 100%what you feel@Teeg,feel like I'm in a hole,cant get out.Made myself go for a walk today and a letter from centrelink was in the mailbox.It was old a week or so therefore one of the neighbours had it in their mailbox.I am so paranoid about gossip and my privacy.I didn't need this and was distressed all the way on my walk.I have a phone assessment on Friday with centrelink because of the medical certificates I have put in and they want to assess me for job search.I can't handle this,where I live there aren't 20 jobs a month to look for and I have a severe depression since March.I am worried if they put pressure on me it will make me do it,because I can no longer or will put myself through it.I know I can't do it anymore and have been battling severe suicidal thoughts for months.I have been applying for jobs that do come up but it's been Hopeless.I am not in a good place ,don't think I ever will be.I feel like I am slipping away a bit more each day and I am to be honest worried.I don't need any more external stressors,I am battling with my internal ones.
