Anyone else had/have this problem? Despite having a decent roof over my head,my lovely boys and my wee dog I am struggling. Nothing new but seems to be relentless and not improving. Have had various anti depressants and regular psychologist sessions but nothing makes much difference.
Any ideas?

I don't really have any ideas to be honest. I'm not sure what I have but I definitely suffer from lack of motivation at times. Even if it could potentially affect my income!

Yes it’s a tricky one, and quite monotonous if you have been battling with trying to resolve an issue for some time, from my observation it’s about maintaining a balance, depending on personal needs, isolation is a growing problem, for instance you could have all the money in the world, but you have no one special to share it with or your health could fail.
there are also only so many hobbies and interests you can take up to distract your self from what’s missing! I personally want to slap anyone who uses the totally useless “count your blessings” platitude!!
perhaps we should pool our resources and set up a Home for wayward Splories (think I might have mentioned it before) loads of land for the Horses, of road riding, indoor school, employ lots of nice young men to attend to our every need 😈
Further suggestions welcome ..... must by a lottery ticket 🤞

I'm in!!! Excellent idea. I have always said I would be happy in a caravan or large shed as long as my boys are safe and happy and I can be left in peace with congenial company around who will notice and care when/if I start going doolally or become incapable

I am still soldiering on, a day at a time, as they say
I keep trying to be positive about something,anything, every day. Yesterday, Smokey was wrestled into his trailer and I met a firiend for a hack. We went up on the hills above Saltcoats/Ardrossan,looking out over the sea to Arran. magnificent view,lots of lovely fresh air. We wrestled Smokey back into his trailer and I came home, psyched up a little for the continuing battle with my horrible neighbours
I've posted the latest source of misery on the other thread.

I get very down sometimes. But it tends to go in cycles, and sometimes there's a lot *to* feel sad about. Try not to beat yourself up when you have reason to be down. ☹️
I've just started some cognitive behaviour therapy sessions for my situation, I'll update as to their usefulness! Seems like a more proactive solution than the mindfulness line - which does have its uses but they can be limited.
