    Thank you for asking @susan48 but as things are generally bad and I am not adapting well at the moment it's probably best if I avoid answering that particular question right now, lol!

    It's just a shame that people can't nice to one another, there is too much nastiness in this world. I have depression and I take things to heart so I get upset really quickly, I hate it being like this. I'm on all sorts of tablets for my ailments. and I'm sure my anti-depression isn't working. Being nice to one another doesn't hurt you... and it makes the other person feel worth while.

    Hello @AlisonNetty Well said.  I agree totally with what you are saying.  As part of this community never understand why it is we can all be polite, kind and be supportive.

    Every body has a view and opinion yet we are in a need to agree to respect that person who has said it.

    Even though may find it difficult to understand.  May not be in agreement and feel need to express.

    Have and do not understand any one being nasty and harsh.

    Please can I ask how are you coping with your mental health?. Is there any thing I can do or advise or suggest.?

    I just have anxiety and depression and do know it is a struggle.

    Always here anytime.

    One of the aspects of my mental health is to put into place things I like. Give me some sunshine if I can from the misery of my issues.  Hope to lift my moods and give me some relief.

    I use coping strategies and methods learnt from enrolling from my time with being in mental health charities.

    Have look on line.

    Something to consider. Does help and they can advise on medication as well.  Among other things they can deal with like sleep and diet plus looking at ways to have an equal balance of your illness.

    Medication does take some time and I would always suggest speak to your Doctor.  Understand that and had to up the dose.

    Used a lot of the time being on here supporting those like yourself.

    Being educated and learning what effects you mentally and physically is important to know who and how to cope.  Even to the point got health qualifications after thinking about what effects me.

    Got sorted with addiction, diet and other aspects of my life.

    Use diaries and planner make coping boxes. Use a corner of my room I am in . Have things that help. Favourite poems, books and pieces of music.  Radio Classic FM.

    Plus my favourite recipes and foods in store.

    It is never easy day to day and I have bad days like every body else. Regardless of how much I try to deal with it.

    Over the years there is never one true answer to the mental health issues but what there is ways to ease the problems and issues . Of mental health.

    I hope that helps and gives you reassurance. You are not alone.  Want to talk always here ready to listen anytime.

    Please take care and pleasure to meet you.

    Take care
