Steer away from it all.

Drugs and Booze, as hard has it is, or as easy as it is to turn to it,
It sends you into a Endless Loop that can be in some cases impossible to get out of.

What to do, would be to pick up the phone, speak to a local friend, arrange to go out and do some activities,

Free or If they cost.
You need to push yourself or who the person is in question to leave the house and do a number of activities

It will help your mind focus on something different than the same old shit routine and hopeful fill an empty space with some fun and love and enjoyment,
give you some...... excitement


What about work? are you home most of the time or out in a office? or out and about?

Drink if you will, but do it in company of your friends, its more fun, and you will feel a 100% happier than just sitting there at home drinking playing your ps3 or listen to some old crap on vidzone

1. Do NOT drink. Alcohol is a depressant and will make you feel worse. One glass of wine or beer now and again is fine, but one and only one.
2. see your doctor. The NHS mental health is appalling, but some help from the doctor can make a difference.
3. Diazepam can really help, but it's a drug that will make you tired and is highly addictive. So if you get some, take it for bed to help you sleep. Do NOT drive while under it's influence.
4. Excercise. This releases endorphins and makes you feel better about things in general.
5. Talk to a friend, someone who you can trust. Dont talk to friends who know it all and will lecture you. Talk to someone who will listen.
6. List your symptoms. Not sleeping, not eating, eating too much, sleeping too much, no interest in sex, suicidal thoughts, self harming, are all signs of clinical depression and need to be treated immediately.
7. YOU ARE NOT ALONE, it doesn't help to think like this, but you are not alone, a lot of people HAVE gone through clinical depression, most people come out the other side better for it. I know I can be a tempremental arsehole most of the time, but I am actually better for going through depression, imagine what I must have been like before it!
8. Do not go out drinking.
9. Do not dink alcohol
10. Alcohol is very bad. Do not get into the habbit of drinking alcohol to help you sleep.

Post your phone number in the clan only section or PM it, I'll give you a ring as often or as little as you want.

mate - been there, done that, got the t-shirt and I wear it occasionally from time to time to remind myself how shit life can be.

Current situation is bollox for a lot of people but knowing that wont help you I'm sure - my life is a balancing act at the moment, but I'm finding life changing emotions in music at the moment.

get your boys to bed early every now and then, get the headphones on - and get listening to your shizzle.

get some new stuff down ya.
I recommend...

School of Seven Bells
Temper Trap
Passion Pit
Mr Scruff
Animal Collective
Insect Guide
and of course any mixes by Human Error.

Music changes lives.
