Depression

So sad to read of another loss, for a relatively small number of people who are members here there is a lot of these terrible losses that are relayed to us.

Just awful for everyone.

They may have found peace, but what have they left?

My condolences to the families and friends.

Thats terrible Stropp, it is very sad, roughly how old was he?

Hi mate 43, far too young

[threedogs]

They have turned off his life support and he has passed away

Never good and now the family is left to pick up the pieces,
FFS talk to someone ANYONE, this sort of thing can be avoided

Sorry to hear Stropp...

I went threw that mate while going threw some pretty bad times at work.
Do yourself a favour and see the docs and get a round of sleeping pills to reboot the system. It made a huge difference for me bloke, only a week. But a week of good sleep made a big difference.

Hey bud,

Have had 2 different ones prescribed, plus doc tried a couple of different quantities with each, don't work...

Can you really call them mates if they can lie to you.

Hey Stropp, I'm sorry to hear about what happened. It doesn't matter what happens a person always thinks what they could have done better, or different to prevent what has happened. To the person suffering, no one can say anything that would seem to help. But in the end, saying anything is the step to recovery. It doesn't have to be targeted, it can be anything.

To all here, if you see or know of someone suffering, just say hello... Ask questions about anything whatsoever, sometimes trying to help makes it worse, just being mate is all a person sometimes needs. Just having normality makes things exactly that... normal. Dealing with the black dog doesn't have to be 'depressing' sometimes it is literally just a 'mates night in'.

I hope all are well in the cold weather setting in, remember lads, we have Patrols and that makes us smile

Hey guys.

Can't believe it myself yet, but recent things in life have not gone to plan. So my GU Patrol has gone up for sale.
Financially, things are difficult, my health hasn't been the greatest as you may already know, and my head is all over the place.

Hard decision, very hard...

Already had someone view it today...
