:Hello2:,
I am a male in my thirties who has suffered from depression for the majority of my life. Family problems seem to have caused most of my stress but having four young children of my own really helps.

Medication helps but at times it's just not enough and the years of counselling were interesting and helped as well but I'm still having problems.

At the moment every day is a struggle and work can be practically impossible and with a good sized family to look after money is a worry.

I was previously married but this resulted in divorce but the divorce got me to seek help and realize there was a problem that needed to be dealt with. Now I'm with an amazing partner who is incredibly supportive but I worry that with 4 kids and me that it could become all too much.

Look forward to speaking (typing?) to you all.

I am Kerri, did suffer with depression but am now left with anxiety! Am doing a course of CBT to try and conquer this and so far so good as I have recently started a new job!! This is also the reason why I may only flit around the boards every now and then!!

Have a wonderful husband, but no little peeps yet..............
