just to say thanks

I just returned to work today after having had 10 weeks off for a number of reasons the main one being Major Depressive Disorder. Normally when I have a spell I will isolate myself and I lose interest in pretty much everything. It is a real struggle just to get necessary things done. This time though I found it somewhat easier to cope because of GC and all the great people on here. It really gave me something to look forward to and helped keep me interested in the garden as well as giving me a laugh when I needed it. Sooooooo........



to everyone!!!
This really is a great place with great people!!!!

 

Your welcome Catztail. Glad you're feeling so much better. Laughing is the best medicine, and we're all a bit mad on here anyway.

 

Back at work eh?

You'll be getting withdrawal symptoms from the abuse suffered by involvement with GC.

Work will never be the same again - still we'll be here when you get back to keep you on your toes.

Best of Luck.

 

Sorry to hear you haven't been on top form Catztail,but really glad you are back on the mend:yess:.I also think GC is one of the best medicines...keep up the good work.

 

Hope work goes well, Catztail. Hope you'll still find time to keep us posted. :thumb:

 

I am glad that you are back on track just at the time of the year when Scandinavians start the winter depression cause of the dark impending...

I also feel depressed sometimes. It can be for three main reasons
1) serious lack of bucks 2) migraine 3) children having a bad day all at the same time
But unlike most people I am not easy to cheer up, so I would not even read at the forum posts in that instance.

On this occasion I would like to pass the message that most elderly people get depressed because they cannot get out and about as before and all is left to do is concentrate on the thought of death.

And that applies especially in the winter.
So, if you can ease the feeling up with a telephone call, a quick chat at the supermarket, a coffee, by any means do so, because it is something of great importance that cannot be bought, not even with Mastercard...

 

Glad you are feeling better.

 

Glad youre feeling a bit better :happydance:

life can be a load of manure at times , but good things can come from it as well .
I was fed up so bought more daylily's now that has helped

Take care of yourself Catztail, not a very nice place to be once depression takes hold of you, glad your feeling much brighter and happier now, keep smiling and don't work to hard, take time out to join the fun and chat here on GC when you can xxx

 

So glad we helped you to feel better, give yourself a big pat on the back as well for making the effort. I also know how hard it can be!!! :(

Well Done Sargent

Its not easy to get over the blues, sometimes it helps to sing them out....

(appologies to The Goodies if I got the lyrics wrong, typed that from memory)

Glad you are happy again and that Gardeners Corner didn't tip you over the mental precipice that leads to Ziggy's World:OUCH:

 

Aaawwww I'm blushing now.......! Thanks for all the encouragement and the lovely well wishes. Oh and don't worry, work won't get in the way much. I will still be here to pester you all on a daily basis pretty much. It's not like I'm moving to Kamchatka or something......
