Re: Depression and PTSD
First diagnosis, lost for words,difficult to get your head around it. Head for your local library,read up all you can on both problems. Write down questions you want answered,ask the forum.. Some one will be able to give you an answer, from their experiences of those very same mental illnesses. It is life changing . Dont look on the down side,try changes,like new diet, new friends, different way of thinking,a new learning curve. Dont let it throw,just think of it as another hill you have to climb,another hickup. You will manage to live with it, just need some education from others who have been there. Those two mental health difficulties are both a right pain in the neck,but never give up.. There is always someone on SANE forum who will read your enquiry and help you to try to find your way through it. Regards jay2
