Depression

Geez, I hope that was an accident!

No accident...?

That's bizarre mate, no words really, just scary.

I don't know if this is any help but I developed a little thing to help give myself a lift if I ever got down for no apparent reason.

I would think about writing a reverse bucket list, so not what I want to do but what I've done and experienced so far in life. Concentrating only on the positive experiences I have had, and aspects of life we probably all take for granted. I try and start as far back as I can remember and begin listing things in my mind that make me realise how fortunate I've been.

For me it's not the memory of the actual experience, but rather the joy I feel for being lucky enough to have had the experience to remember (hope that makes sense). I'm sure there's a lot of us that have done things that very few other people have had the opportunity to do and when you sit back and say to yourself, "damn, I'm bloody lucky to have been able to do that" it really does give you a lift.

I'll probably write it all down one day but for now I just think about it for a bit and life seems a bit better.

@dogman. - you learned the hard way dude. Anti depressants are never ever, never ever ever to be stopped without consultation with your GP. Good on you for sharing.

@stropp - sorry to hear no one should go through what you have.

@all - you buggers! You have brought a tear to my eye (no I'm not gay! Geez the Mrs would be upset if I was ). To hear about what you guys have gone/are going through and more importantly shared in a public forum. Good on you all and a big thanks

This blokes eyes were moving independently of each other like a crab. It made me think of exorcist (not joking) we've put him onto professional help and taken him to the med clinic. Some of his coworkers suspect drugs could be involved but obviously that's not a call anyone but a doc can make
He had voices in his head and all sorts

Turns out a relative who's a natropath advised him to take saint johns wart/wort for his anxiety. Too much can affect brain function. Hopefully he'll be good to come back to work next wee
