Hi, I’m new!

I think this time of the year is difficult for lots and lots of people. The nights are long and dark and mostly raining and cold. Christmas makes me especially think of those who have passed before us and that makes me sad. What if they were still around? What advice would they give us now? How would our lives be different if we had their guidance?
I'm also sad as another year comes to an end, and what is different now, compared to last year?
But I also try to look on the brighter side. Once the 21st of December has passed, the evenings start to get brighter, there are endless possibilities with the new year stretching ahead, and the Christmas lights are still up, with their twinkling multicolours.
It's difficult but there is hope. Please don't give up.

Hi and welcome. It’s not the same, I know, but I have swollen optic nerves due to excess fluid on my brain, and I’m on 2 anti depressants and a mood stabiliser. There really are a lot of ADs available and all work differently so is it worth talking to a specialist (if you haven’t already) to see if there’s any way you can be helped? As you suffer from anxiety, maybe helping to treat that could help you overall itms?
