Hiya
Don't have long cos I'm in an internet cafe.. thanks for taking the time, although I'm a bit confused... starting a new job on Monday and very very worried about the whole thing.. hate this whole meeting new people/making friends thing, especially since this is my first proper job. My problem is that I always assume people won't like me and then don't give them a chance to ('own worst enemy' as many people have told me). I do know what you mean about the necessity of a different attitude to life, and I have tried to have that kind of attitude in the past, with some success. I just think I really do need to be on ADs to be able to achieve that kind of attitude, because when I'm just my normal depressed self it's like my brain is attacking me all the time - constant negative thoughts about how useless/ugly/past it I am that are not controllable. So, going to start Lofepramine, when I get up the courage (scared of side effects/weight gain). Anyway, money running out...
AL x
