Lads , I know we had a thread on the last forum about this & a certain individual who shall not be named who conned alot of people claiming he had it . I'd just like to write a few words on it . I had what I assumed was depression for the last few years . I had a couple of horrendous episodes happen to me over the last two weeks which involved two visits to Blanchardstown hospital & three visits to the psychiatric ward for mental health in Drogheda. I have a plan in place for me to be implemented going forward . To say it caused distress to the ones I love is an understatement. But I want to start this off anyway for anyone who might be in a similar situation & needs help . We aren't an island , there is hope & help out there . I just want to say how thankful & appreciative of the good folk in said places as well as those in Pieta House . I have a long , long road ahead of me but I just want to make people aware there is help out there . Never feel like you can't talk to anyone no matter how bleak you think things are . Don't keep your problems to yourself . If anyone wants to add to this feel free & if anyone is going through dark times I'm always here to chat , here or via pm . This is a big problem in this country but it can be overcome !

Easier said than done, but feel free to drop a PM anytime.

Great start Unbelievable, great start, everyone gets through by leaning on their friends and loved ones. That's what they're there for.
I'd agree with Joxer_Daly, send a PM anytime.

Yes, Croker on Saturday and a Summer of matches to come, culminating in the surely inevitable 3 in a row! I hope everything goes fine, Unbelievable.

Sorry to hear you went through that Anon User. Glad to hear you got through it. Very brave to post it up but I'd encourage anyone experiencing the same to do similar. Talk to someone. Don't suffer in silence

You see, it's posts like this that will help ensure that depression will never be allowed to skulk back into the unspoken shadows & become a taboo subject once more. Such an awful scurge for so many families (let's be honest, who doesn't know someone or who hasn't had a family member having dealt with or dealing with this?) that only becomes worse through silence & avoidance. Certainly here in Spain, it feels as if it's still a taboo subject. Possibly the last one but there's much work still to be done to normalise talk of it.
Great work Anon User. Brave post. Sorry to hear of your experience but you've done the right thing & taken the right course of action.

Fair play, unbelievable. You're on the right road. Take up the offers of pm's here if you need to. I think depression is something that hits everyone at various times in our lives but just affects people in differing ways and levels.

Well done Unbelievable - brave post brother.
