I've been through some major highs and lows since i recieved my diagnosis. And by highs and lows i mean stages of good and bad health. Stages of working and unemployment. Bouts of depression and anxiety on a daily basis....I've had all sorts of stuff going on basically.

Yea @TAB
I feel i need direction from OTHERS at times... i also feel i need a variety of influences for myself to be semi contented with everything ... otherwise I'm easily lead astray and become very stressed...

hey there Eude
@TAB made a good point
you do have a choice
as in we all do no matter how difficult a situation can be
listen to yourself ....your intuition..
you have been here before and got through this part..
if you are really struggling at moment call someone and just say what you need to say...if you dont like their questions...tell them that you dont want to answer questions you just want to talk and for them to listen...
that is ok to do that
it does help to..
keep on chatting away to us on here as well.
