It’s been a good few years now, but I was very close to the edge, hospitalised for 3 months at High Royds. No real reason for being on a downer, though in retrospect, a lot of little things, some of which were not worth worrying about anyway.
Whilst in crisis EVERYONE said I can’t believe that YOU are depressed. Me, much as I am now, someone who is usually smiling.
It happens to all sorts.
It was hard getting through it.
I guess it’s 15 years gone now and I have pulled through. There are times when it threatens to come back, and I have to say I do not want to go back there.
