Depression

Man there is no need what so ever to say sorry for the life story that is what this thread is all about.
Firstly I am sorry to hear about your situation, it must be really difficult to feel the way you do.
Have you looked into any government kick backs or some sort of pension or subsidy for your medication and condition?

Thanks mate.
Have tried the government route, but apparently the missus earns too much for any kind of support, best I have is Medicare...

That is absolutely disgusting hearing things like that makes my blood boil. (not that I am racist in anyway) but these illegal immigrants get more than an elderly person on a pension and still windge about it, you have paid taxes for x amount of yrs and can't get anything.
Another suggestion might be to take up drawing or painting and draw a bunch of flowers or something for the misses. Two birds one stone it will keep your mind occupied and show your misses you do appreciate her.

Evo I have no idea what to say to you, all I can do is send good thoughts and hope you receive them.

It makes me feel good to read the responses to your posts from our fellow members. They may be on to something or may be not.

But what I see is you feeling a little better to see these written words, I do hope you find a path to happiness squeezing your ladies hand along the way.

mate one thing i have learnt is dont let pride or your "manliness" stand in the way of your health, too many blokes have done and are still doing this and quite often the outcome is not good, this forum is just the start mate tell the missus how you are too and that will help heaps im sure. whatever you decide to do act on it and dont leave it otherwise it will come back to haunt you, im glad to hear you sounding better mate.

It's a complete nonsense the rules, it impacts on those most in need. You don't have to earn too much to be considered earning too much....Medicare is better than private in some cases, private insurance is another bloody rip off! All the best mate, stay safe and keep logged on.

Thanks again guys.

As for the painting flowers, I'm not very artistic.
The best I've ever managed was a smiley face, finger drawn, on the side of my patrol,after going through some mud.

It isn't fair at all regarding the help.
In order to qualify, as a couple, we have to have $800 or less as income per fortnight.
The mortgage is more than that a fortnight.
Last time I had to go to Medicare to claim back from a specialist appointment, I saw that Centrelink (in case you weren't aware, some Medicare offices have merged with Centrelink ie;Cannington) has supplied all it's staff with electronic tablet things.
That couldn't have been funded by all those missing out on help, or could they?

Thinking positive (or at least trying to) and waiting for when I can take the Troll out for a good run offroad and forget about the world, at least for a few hours. That's the thing that used to take my mind of all the things that bring me down, make me mad, and stress.

Sounds good.
I want to try to get my valve clearances done before I do too much driving, as I don't know when it was last checked, plus a little noisy at present.
Also, unfortunately, depends on how the back is at the time. Hopefully if I can get the procedure done, will be looking a bit better.

Just when things are going really well something comes along and F#$@s it all up...............and everyone wonders why I get pissed off and angry.
Just had to get that off my chest and out of my head.
