This is probably going to sound a weird thing to ask but does anyone happen to know if there is anywhere that is perhaps a bit like a hospital but not, where you can go for some kind of respite care to get away from a toxic home environment? My home situation is not good at all, I have a hugely...

Laurie, you should be blowing your own trumpet and be proud and honoured. You are a good and huge hearted man who will do anything for those you love. Your mum must be incredibly proud of you. Xx

Hi SheilaKathy, no I am not passing out any more thank goodness! It really was most horrible. It was a bad case of dehydration that caused me to pass out, coupled with the other things. I am quite a bit better now than I was thank you. Thanks for your concern, it is most kind of you. x

Thank you so much Florian, I really appreciate it. It is just how things seem to go isn't it. You are right, I couldn't make it up - if I could I would be a millionaire who film writer!! Its strange how it seems to happen though. Just trying to come to terms with it all at the moment, and...

OK, I am not expecting any of you to believe me in what I am going to say now because I don't believe it myself! How can it be possible to have so much go so wrong with me in the space of a few months, and all since my PTSD diagnosis! As some of you will be aware, I dislocated my shoulder back...

I really don't know what to do with myself. I am not coping at all, constantly crying, totally over emotional, I am exhausted because I do not sleep, I sit staring into space, feeling desperate. My family don't know about my ptsd and depression, although I am hoping to be able to pin my husband...

Hope you are ok Hun, and they get things sorted for you soon. Feel your pain after my week this week. Big hugs to you xxxx

Wish I could do more to help you hunny. You know I care and would if I could xx

Laurie, I am sat here at my desk at work and have just found this and read it. You have reduced me to a sobbing heap my friend, that is so incredibly beautiful. I wish someone loved me like that, I really do......

Angry - to the person who stole my bank card details and helped themselves to GBP 250.00 from my account Saddened, upset and hurt - by a close friend who showed another side to them today. someone who I thought trusted and knew me unconditionally but has shown that maybe my total faith and...

I just wanted to post a very big and public thank you to the lovely people in chat land. Twice recently I have been very unwell and turned to chat for some help and support and received it by the bucket load. The first time was a couple of weeks ago when I collapsed at home following passing...

I am so very sorry hunny. Here if you need anything xxx

@Junebug, can I ask you a question that might help me a bit?? From your words about the smell, fire and smoke on an airfield after a crash, is this something you have experienced? Please, if it is only talk about it if you are comfortable doing so. Only reason that I ask is that this is all...

Albatross, I think that was a large part of it. Been back to the site quite a bit but usually I am on my own. I think it was the fact that I had to go there with others which I haven't done since the accident. Feeling better than I was now thank goodness. Xx

I had a rather nasty unexpected trigger this morning. I was on my way to work when a colleague called me asking if there was any chance we could give them a lift as they had stayed at a friends house last night and when they came out to go to work their car would not start. I spoke to my other...

I agree with Ladee, Go, have a fun time but explain to the person you are riding with that it is a difficult date for you and not something that you wish to discuss but just ask them for their understanding if you do need some private time or need to leave the rest of the group for a while. As...

Gadgie, that's lovely! I really like that x

Thank you folks for your contributions! Please keep them coming, regardless of whether they are just words, phrases, anything. I will assume that if you have posted them that you wouldn't mind me using them if they work for the lyrics as that was what I posted about. Thanks loads everyone

Laurie, you know I hold you in extremely high regard and value you as a friend very much but I am going to give you a stern talking to now!! You are not a burden to anyone! I am sure that there are a whole host of folk on here alone who would love to be able to take you to your hospital...

I am not sure if this is the right place to post this or not but hopefully so. One of my big passions in life is music, particularly guitar. I have been learning to play for about 3 years now and to be honest am not tremendously good still but I love it. Whilst my shoulder is injured I am...

Hey looking and sounding cool Mr L !! Looks like you had a great night, so pleased for you!! Xxx

Thank you so much everyone for your kind words and encouragement to stay. I guess because of my situation at home, I am just not used to having anyone that I can freely talk to and say how I feel without recrimination. I have always been made to feel as if it is totally wrong to say how I feel...

Thank you so much Hodge, I just feel a total wreck right now. Thank you for being there xx

No Socha, it wasn't you. It wasn't anyone in reality, it was just me being silly. Thank you for caring x

Thank you so much everyone, I am just in a very dark place right now and can't seem to think straight or anything. I feel totally overwhelmed by the PTSD and depression, I can't stop crying again and feel so very very fragile at the moment. I keep trying to be happy, cheerful and supportive to...
