That's absolutely awesome, you should be so proud.
Thanks a lot, guys!
I am actually really quite proud of myself. I never thought I'd be free of it and sometimes it certainly hasn't been easy but I hope this gives some hope to posters here still struggling (sorry if that sounds preachy).

4 years since I last s/hed.
To anyone who still does; it can be a controlling, destructive force in your life but it is possible to get out of the cycle. If you told me 4 years ago where I'd be today I wouldn't have believed you, but things do get better.

Hello, thought I'll pop over and introduce myself.
I'm Chiara and I currently live in Spain. I get depressed, anxious and/or panicky - my depression isn't a long ongoing thing but comes and goes, which is irritating as it's easy to think it's totally gone.
Had a really sucky week and today was the worst, ended up staying in bed for most of it. Tidied my room and showered and ate food and watched funny things though Supposed to be working tomorrow morning and then have a Spanish lesson in the evening, but I'm a private tutor and so it's not the end of the world to cancel a lesson, although I lose money and it obviously doesn't look great.
Really looking forward to meeting you guys

Could you perhaps have a frank conversation with her where you tell her how you feel? My mother used to bring up my mental health every time I saw her and, although I know she had good intentions, in the end I had to tell her that talking about it so much made me uncomfortable but that I would keep her informed of any developments. She took this well and respected my wishes. Your mother is probably worried about you and doesn't realize that it's not something you find easy to talk about (I assume that's what you mean by "intense", sorry if I interpreted that wrong) but I imagine that most parents would respect their child's wishes if it's explained to them in a reasonable way.
I hope the visit goes well for you and that you're able to come to some agreement with her.
How long has it been since I posted here

Sorry to hear you've been sectioned and sorry your ward isn't very safe. Like TLG said, could you possibly speak to the nurses or your named nurse and see if they can make it safer for you? Have they given you any idea when they are going to give you section 17 leave so you can go out for a bit or that? Hang on in there, it will get better
!

I will ask the doctor on Monday if he's available, I think it has to be signed off by him.
