I've been getting out and doing things, just adding one more thing at a time into the old juggling act of life.
And I have started doing yoga a couple of times a week which seems to have helped my poor old memory and concentration, which were really getting me down as whats the point in having a degree and a job if you can't think enough to use it...
Anyway, it all seems to be working out ok. It's two years since I bombed out and went mad last, it took me a year to get steady again with a few hiccups along the way and now I feel hopeful for the first time in years...
I just wanted to post this in case it helps someone out there... I never expected it to take so long for me to feel better, and because of that I thought how I felt when my mood was stable-ish was as good as things would get which made me sad because I still didn't feel great and couldn't think clearly.
But looks like things are getting better slowly and surely with the help and patience of my friends and work... I am doing things I never managed before and am hoping this lasts a wee while
This forum helped me with some curly questions I couldn't ask anyone else and helped a lot, so thanks.
I look forward to things getting better for you too

Thanks Faraway, glad you're feeling better. I really needed to hear an encouraging story. :-)
