Speaking to professioanls is OK. I initially saw a clinical psychologist, who was OK, but after a while (say 2 years), it gets stale and you have heard it all.
Moved on to a psychiatrist, (continuing the psychologist) who unlike the psychologist prescibes drugs.
I was much more comfortable speaking to the psychologist, mainly given he was a white male of similar age to me.
The psychiatrist was an asian lady much younger than me, eminently qualified, but she had no idea what my normal life would be like, much less my abnormal ife.
Maybe 10 years down the track, after several gaps with seeing the psychologist, I haven't been since Februarry, because it got back to "I've heard it all before"
Seeing the psychiatrist every 2 months, because I have to as she controls the drugs, but making an effort to make her talk more. It is good because the psychiatrist visit is only half an hour so you don't have to think of as much to talk about.
**** the stigma, you should be applauded for seeking help.
There is nothing to be ashamed about by admitting life as you have been handed is impossible to cope with.
And I'm about 10 months in to being better than I have been in years

Pretty good

Nice set up, Nozza. Easy to get them on the van from there, instead of bumping out from under the house and bumping through the gate like I do. (BTW... van update is overdue. )
I guess there's an extra tie-down or two involved when that Victorian weather decides to turn it on.
That SIC Bullet board has served you well! It's still lookin' good too.

Best looking production board ever made

That's great. I am very pleased to hear that you are on the mend. Grandkids are the best. Even if I have a sh!t day at work, if the little bloke is here when I get home and his arms go up for me to pick him up when he sees me the day is instantly better.

Great looking board there, Beachandbush. Love all the decals! Great to have a custom that also reflects your passions etc!

How come all you guys have such nice lawns?
Mines terrible

Anyone thinking of a Crezo catch-up. Fuel prices suck
But sometimes you just gotta go????
