YOU ARE NOT ALONE - A companion online community discussion board for The Mental Illness Happy Hour podcast with Paul Gilmartin

Hi guys,
Going thru a bit of a downer right now and was listening to the podcast with Dan tefler. He mentioned how people with creative outlets can at least throw themselves into their creative side. And it would be sadder if you were the rational left brain type without any creative outlet would just suck. Well that sounds like me. 48 and doing a ok job but yes I throw myself into work and spreadsheets and lately not much else. Just looking for some positive conversation to help lift me me up a bit. Recently been to hospital and getting som meds but still underlying issues on my mind.

Hi Guys me again,

A little more about myself. Greed got the better of me trying to make a buck. Got 3 kids that I feel like they r eating me out of house &home. But they r good kids bu don't understand what I am going thru . Barley managing to work but that's my salvation. But I have extended my loans to get into Realestate. Now I am fretting about it and trying to get out. It s been about 3 weeks of worry without an answer. Lost around 7kgs(15 ibs )in 2 weeks and started to have the negative thoughts . Finally went to hosp & back on meds but don't feel they r enough. Sorry to blab all that out but the more I talk or write about it the better I get(I hope)

Look forward to some replies and any thoughts
