    A lesson learnt. Depression never leaves you.

    https://howfootballruinedmylife.word...lesson-learnt/

    This blog post is, I feel as raw and uncut as I have ever wrote. It is how I feel at this exact moment and I make no apologies for that. After it wouldn't be a very good blog if I diluted my thoughts and didn't explain what it's like to suffer with depression.

    one of the worst symptoms of this illness is we believe we're ruining everyone's lives around us, and it's all our fault. It's not. And I hope you can begin to realise this as you work through to wellness
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Trigger warning

    This blog post is very dark and if your not in a positive frame of mind you might be best avoiding it.

    It is however me baring my soul and being completely honest about how I feel. No bull, undiluted and honest.

    Hunni, I've added a trigger warning to this post as you've discussed very difficult subjects for some members

    Have you told your Drs how you are feeling? Please, please, please get help - if you're not safe go to A&E or call the Samaritans, please
