Hi, my name is vavavee!

I suffer from chronic depression and I have osteoarthritis. I would very much welcome advice and a chat with regards these two issues.

The discussions on 'Dealing with chronic pain' include a number, I think, on osteoarthritis https://community.scope.org.uk/categories/chronicpain , and I'm sure you'll find discussions on chronic depression in our 'Ask a mental health advisor' forum https://community.scope.org.uk/categories/ask-a-mental-health-advisor
In the meantime, bear with us and others on here will respond to your post in due course.
Remember that you matter to us here, and we will do all we can to help. Don't hesitate to come back to me if there is anything else you think we might be able to help with, or just to chat.
Warmest best wishes to you,
Richard
