SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)

[Owlunar]

Hi @Shaz51

If Mr Shaz is getting up to make cuppas I would love a coffee - instant is fine - 

It must be really hard to be encouraging for Mr Shaz when you are battling to keep yourself on an even keel - I get that - I know this is a bothersome situation - I get it too that you are unlikely to get any encouragement yourself - and I am not thinking that in an unkind way - when you married him you guys must have been good friends in love and that must be a wonderful memory - he became ill - mentally ill - and your have physical problems and there is a bit of cross-over for both of you

But most women seem to get on with things - as tough as they often are - just a little bit better than the guys

Did I mention that it's been proven that man-flu is real - men suffer more - the hormone oestrogen - wonderful as it is - we need it for all the female parts of us to work - including being there for others - 

Fantastic that 0_|_]

I haven't been feeling well much - very so-so - since I have been taking these darn BP Tablets - I told my doctor today and I have to have all these blood and urine tests - suffering cats - I did not want to here that -  mostly my thyroid is getting the works - aw - sheesh - this has not cheered me up one bit

I'm getting older - that's my excuse and it's working so I am sticking with it

Hi @Former-Member

I have a warped and rather sharp sense of humour - I get the joke in several different ways - not going there right now

I love your pic though and I have been thinking of you - I think of have the gloomies in my soul - either that or thyroid - I told me doctor I thought my BP tablets are too strong - and I am having blood and urine tests - already said that here - I am not hypochrondrical and feel having all these tests is just the doctor looking for a problem I don't want to know about - 

Dec drops her head onto the computer keyboard feeling dejected - muttering - I hate cold and gloomy weather

Take like as it comes Lapses - we really have no other way to get through it

Hi @Former-Member

I just have to survive it - totally convinced it is the weather and SAD - I think I have a bunch of SAD emojis here

Take your pic - now I am thinking - which is me today - top left I think - still thinking it's gotta have a funny side - and I also think there is a way of clipping these

It is sooooooooo interesting to look for appropriate pics - all the stuff I found looking for a gloomy pic that suited me - no - I am not that miserable - just don't feel like moving out of my shadow and you know - my shadow is not the worst place in the world to be

I had bacon, eggs and tomatoes for lunch - dim sims and salad for dinner last night - I eat well - I am not worried about most of the tests the doctor wants on that order - I think he is glad I am finally going and getting something done about a blood test he has wanted me to have for a few years - not really interested either - sure it's the weather

How are you going there sis - I know it ain't easy - I guess you would like to look after your Dad alone in peace for as long as he lasts - pity about those brothers

Care heaps

Sorry @Owlunar, brain not working.

think i have the blues

Think we should run away together and hibernate from the world 'till spring. At least then we wouldn't be alone. 

I need a good cry.  So tired. 

[Former-Member]

One of those night, can't stop crying

Sorry to hear that you’re struggling @Former-Member. Anything in particular that is getting you down?

[soul]

Hope you’re okay @Former-Member and that things will be better for you in the morning.

My friend up north who has been watching my place / watering my garden just rang earlier, in one of her moods, and said shes sick of it - ALL OF IT 😞  Something about having to do the 10min extra drive after work...  Guess shes not 'getting'anything out of it.

How does so may think i should leave dad ? She thinks her comment was gonna "put a spanner in the works" of my plan to stay as long as my dad needs me.  Its like they'd rather o be the victim forever,  not grow,  not be useful...  So over it myself. I dont know what to do but to stay. My si sdont careenough tohelp dad
