    I don’t know tbh and would recommend you talk to your GP just to check. Can you get a telephone consultation?
    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.

    How long have you been on them? Can you go back and speak to your GP and tell them what you are telling us?

    Glad that other things have been going well.
    I've always found the best thing is to keep reminding yourself that you are good enough and maybe sit with a friend whilst you do it?
    Lovely to see you

    Hi Hunni, good to see you . Maybe it’ll help to take it in chunks eg complete one section then have a cuppa and a sit down, then go back for the next section? Or work on it for 10 minutes, leave it for 10 minutes etc?
