Hi, My names Lk and i'm a depressive....:blush: well there you go.... always start with a joke. i don't know if it's gonna help me here, but i need to try i think...

hi LK and welcome you will find this site a great help and find new friends too. i suffered dep for years but am free of it now exercise helped me the most doing it every day, now i brisk walk and its made me more motivated, positive, happy and lost weight too. it will tire u out to begin with but after month or so u will feel great, whether u do somethin indoors or out it all is great. hugs to u xxxx

hi Donna, that was quick! you are so right about exercise, i'm normally pretty good but things have gone down hill at the mo, and i've new meds which have horrid side effects! :wacko:

Hi LK
Your signature made me chuckle. Am fairly new to site, but there seems to be lots happening on here, so you're bound to find someone or something you can relate to. You can but try and see if it helps. I'm still working it out, as posting makes me a bit anxious, but have only had good experiences so far.
