Hello Guys
Just been reading through this thread, I am amazed at how supportive you all are of each other!

When i was 20 after i had my little girl i suffered with post natal depression after that its pretty much gone downhill from there, ive been on a mixture of amytriptyline, prozac and fluoxitine for the past 9 years, ive had councilling, family counciling, group therapy you name it.
Its been a long struggle but I seem to be getting on well for the past 6 months, with the help of my hubby who is brilliant! not to mention very patient!
Its very true what someone mentioed earlier that its not a case of pulling your socks up! its long process it takes one day at a time and of course its you that sets the pace of your recovery.
with the support of great friends you can face anything and its really great knowing now there are some fantastic people here on this site to offer their support!
Mary-Lou

you are so right Ann - we have not had any bullies on here and we certainly don't welcome them, so if anyone has any ideas of bullying anyone on this thread, think again please - this is a safe and welcoming thread for anyone with problems - no place for bullies

Deanna, like your Mum I am sure my Mum would have been mortified to arrive in a police car "what would the neighbours say"? Me i would think it was great, go out with a bang I say!!

This has so far been a lovely thread with so many people receiving help from each other. it would be very sad if it was to deteriorate with bullies taking over so please don't let any of our group be bullied. by anyone.

gill dont let them win i dont no whats happened but i no you have supported me over the last few weeks that has helped me in many ways even down to just having somone to talk to when things get bad and im always here to help you in any way i can come back gill xxxx elaine xxxx

Yes Ann it was a lovely day, and Allan had a nice rest... today too so lets hope he benefits from it all week.

Mary, my mum would have been so upset.
If it was me coming in a police car... I wold have laughed and expected all my people to be in hysterics over it too.
But my mother would have been humiliated. When she was in hospital, she asked me to bring her in a couple of big towels so that she could have a bath.
I opened the airing cupboard and grabbed two bath towels and took them in!

she nearly went apoplectic!!

She hid them back in the bag and said..
"bring me in GOOD TOWELS... ", she could not have people thinking that she was using towels like that!!

I don't think the hospital had towels as good as them !!
I certainly didn't. But I had to bring her in some *good* towels the next day!

No Mary... she would not have been amused by a police car at her funeral... bless her.
She was a good woman, I am not moaning about her.

Gill, what do you mean that you have been 'warned off?'?

Who has the right to warn you off this site, it is ours... yours and your friends. x

Goodbye all

I have been warned off here - it seems I cannot give nor receive support and I am too tired to fight anymore.

Thanks for your support

Gill

Evening everyone

I hoped you all had a nice day, we had sun here all day (hope everyone else did).

Haven't seen Ycaz today, hope you are ok Ycaz.

Take care all
Gill

Evening all

Took the son to hospital this morning .Is the NHS getting worse ? He is supposed to take his own packing and dressings .We went to 4 chemists yesterday including Boots and none of them had what he needed in stock so we had to go empty handed today and I explained to the receptionist .
Has been sunny most of the day and I intended doing some gardening but as usual got side tracked .
Following on the funeral theme on the 1st anniversary of my mums passing I declined going with my sister to the garden of rest .I decided to buy a single red rose and take it down to the river when the nursing home was where she died .I sat on the grass and admired the river and lovely little birds .I put a thought up to mum and threw my flower in the water .Just then a big sea gull landed only a few feet from me and stared at me for several minutes it then ran towards me and squacked in my face before flying away .I thought typical of mum she couldn't come back as a cute little bird !!!! ( she always had to have the last word )
It did make me smile though
Hope you are all having a good day

love

I hope all these funny stories are related in your family history somewhere all of you.

Deanna, I KNOW my mother would have laughed at the irony of the situation, she had a wonderfully warped sense of humour (a bit like me!!). She, who had never done anything wrong deliberately in her life, had a police escort to her grave. Bless her heart, I am sure she was laughing at the shock on our faces, our prim and proper Mum in a police car! LOL.
Mary

Janet, I chuckled to think of your Dad up there commanding the waves to play a joke on you when you scattered his ashes. who knows????
