Hi @gtc69 - Welcome to the community. We're all very friendly here, & care about each other & try to be supportive.As far as your mental health goes there are several charities that may also be able to offer you support.The Richmond Fellowship: https://www.richmondfellowship.org.uk/ You can check if there's any support local to you, as it's not in all areas.Mind: https://www.mind.org.uk/Rethink: https://www.rethink.org/Please talk here any time, we all have different disorders (or have a relative with one) but often we have much in common so can help each other.

Hi @gtc69. I’m sorry to read you feel so isolated. Can I ask if you’re engaged with any mental health support at all?
