Today has been a better day. Got the house clean. Went for a 6km walk. Went to a quiz night(team came in 2nd! Only 2 points off) just had a couple of triggers that set me off last night, which happens. Drinking all day doesn't help either!
It would have to be nearly the toughest decisions in life for a father to go through this. All power to you mate.Today I played in the sun with my kids
We had a BBQ at a park area, a reservoir where they could run around and play
It was a great day
But I had to say goodbye, to give my little girl and boy a kiss goodbye and walk away
I have sat here and cried my eyes out since
It is tearing me apart not being with them every day, it tears me apart to let go of their little hands and leave
I miss them so so much

Today I hit rock bottom and went to the doctor for help, was extremely hard to do but I already feel like a weight has been lifted. Will be a long road to walk down but I hope I can reach the end.
Have been incredibly depressed and suicidal since the sudden/traumatic death of my father late last year, followed by an extreme case of glandular fever which hospitalised me. During this time I have sought relief through food, drugs, pr0n and gambling.. a wicked cocktail. Have put on 30kilos in 5 ******* months!
I'm 22 years old and far too young to let my life rot away like this.
Exactly. More often than not we make our difficult times worse by believing nothing will change and we'll be stuck in the same situation forever. The only true constant in life is nothing remains the same. That's not to say that we cannot make changes for the better.It's been hard but it does get better.

Just to let you guys know. Kindness is not dead. Just from tassie seeing family. Had to fly into Proserpine as the tickets to Mackay where I live was $500 more expensive. First up on my way into town, I had a couple stop and give me a lift into town (very much appreciated!) dropped me off at a local pub, where 1 of the locals decided to walk with me to the train station and proceeded to introduce me to the station master. Feeling pretty much appreciated to the kindness of strangers. Stay strong and I do appreciate the help you guys have for each other. Help is here if you want to open up, don’t do it alone, it’s not worth the struggle.
Onto part 2
My parents, I wish I had a relationship with them. How ever I was also used for their means. I lived with a set of grand parents for 12 months when I was about 18 months old. When I was four I lived with a school librarian for another 12 months while my parents disappeared. During the ages of 5 to 9 I lived either with my parents that constantly fought or lived with complete strangers. When I was 12 my older sister and I lived with an aunt for 12 months sharing a double bed.(no incest so don't worry, despite me being from Tasmania!) when I was 14 to 16 I was living with my other set of grandparents. Also too, in the middle of me living with my parents, when I was 11 I spent 4 weeks in traction and 8 months on crutches. I only ever became necessary when I turned 16 when I received Ausstudy, so I could pay my own way. The only time my parents were interested in me, was when I could provide an income for them.i remember when I was 16, working for an uncle at a $1 an hour as a builders labourer, that my parents came home and my father started to hit my mother. He laid a few blows on me that night, but I laid a lot more back. So when my parents divorced after 29 years of misery I was happy for them. What I didn't realise that I would then become responsible for my mother. For 8 years I endured her criticism of me, her fears anthe expection that I would have to live my life, for her. I am so sick of being used by every one. I just wish I didn't feel the need to be used in order for being accepted as the person I am.
End Rant
I wanted to post on this thread as it has helped me seek help for my issues, I called beyond blue because of this thread and admitted I am struggling with anxiety and depression. I am now seeing a psychologist, the breathing techniques and “getting out of my head” techniques are helping me. I have also returned to the gym and stopped drinking (3 weeks and 6 days, but who’s counting) putting all of this together I feel much better.
It’s a journey but it’s good to know others are on it too and willing to share, it takes gutsThis great news. Always good to see people moving onwards and upwards.
