Good evening everyone, how are we all?
My name is Baz, i'm 28 and live in South Wales with the fiancee, two step kids and a little bugger of a 7 month old baby.
Recently been diagnosed with depression, really don't know where it came from so can't say what set me on the road to depression, what has contributed to it etc etc so it's all pretty new to me.
I'm also suffering with anxiety issues alongside the depression, not too sure if the two go hand in hand but by god they don't compliment each other well do they? With the anxiety i'm having major worries about health, in particular heart issues, but part of my brain is telling me there's no problems as I have zero cardiovascular problems or signs of problems, bar some pesky palpitations or something the doctor called them, they're supposedly nothing to worry about, anyone want to calm my mind there :roflmao:
I have an appointment through to go to the gateway to mental health thingy in my area, but that's a couple of weeks away yet. I'm on Prozac, 40mg a day, which has been raised from the starting dose of 20mg per day. Had a couple of side effects there but nothing major. I've had no suicidal thoughts at all which is a massive plus in my eyes.
Anywho enough of an introduction, I hope to get piece of mind and support from being here.
