    One of the main things I was told that helped in my remission from depression was - you can't pour from an empty jug. They explained that, like on an aeroplane, you put your own oxygen mask on before you help anyone else. If you don't look after yourself, you won't be able to look after those around you. Please try to drink some more. Your body is made up of a huge amount of water, and during the day you lose a huge amount by just breathing, being in a heated room and going to the loo. If you don't replace all this water, your brain can become dehydrated and cause low moods.
    Lecture over!

    I know. I've never drank a lot since I was a child, it's a hard habit to get out of.

    Agreed. Your post from just a couple of days ago said you were going to try a litre per day. How is that going?

    The more you do it, the easier it gets? I know it has with my treadmill, so am approaching the drinking thing in the same way. It's something I've struggled with Hazel....

    Which is great, but you really need to find a system that works so J (and us) don’t have to bug you ....
    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.

    Why don't you drink? Do you not like the taste? The sensation? Do you not get thirsty?

    I don't really think about it or I start doing something and forget about drinking. And I suppose it's what my body has gotten used to. I never really feel thirsty. If I do drink during the day, it's usually because I think I should make an effort or J has bollocked me and demanded photographic evidence or you lot have nagged, sorry, reminded me. I've had 2 drinks today, both have lasted me around 5 hours. And I know that is not good when even being on a diuretic doesn't make me need the loo any more frequently.
