Hia, Im new on here after seeing a advert for it. I have clinical depression, severe anxiety. ive had depression since i was about 15 and ive had the anxiety since i had my daughter 3 years ago. Things havent been easy i found out my husband was having cyber sex while i was pregnant and on the verge of miscarrying, and he then left me when my daughter was a year old, hes been violent towards me, threaten to take my daughter to another country, but hes recenty just had a baby with the woman he left me for, who got involved after we split up and has been nasty to me. I was seeing a mntal health nurse and was waiting on refferal to a counsellor, but she mislaid my refferal and i wasnt refered for near two years so i complained and got fast tracked, but in this time i have tried 5 anti depressants at the highesst dose, and they cant offer me anything else, but im having cbt starting in afew weeks, so hopeflly that might help, but at the moment im so lonely, and miserable am i ever going to feel any better? i havent had a partner since my husband left and i dont trut anyone, i got no friends as they took his side as he made lies up about me, can anyone help? thanks Sara

Hi Roxy, that’s terrible what your ex is doing.  He obviously has his own issues or he’s just not a nice person.  Whatever, try not to let them affect you any more than they have to.  He’s not worth it.  You and your daughter are.  Nightmare that you slipped through the net like that.  Good that you asked for help and got fast tracked.  I’ve heard good things about CBT.  Roll on your sessions.  We’re not all bad Roxy.  You sound like such a great person, I’m sure you’ll meet a great man when you are ready.  Hang on in there.  We’re always here when you feel alone.  Will
