    Mate, you need to go in person to one of his surgeries (a surgery is where you can meet your MP one to one). Take all the relevant paperwork with you Details of his surgery here: http://www.steverotherammp.org.uk/contact.html

    There's support here mate, even if the reply to your post is a little late. We certainly are not rejecting you, please be assured of that. Have you spoke to any health professionals or counsellors over your feelings? Are you on medication, receiving help of any sort?

    Have you tried acupuncture? A very good friend had what sounds like a similar condition to yours. She started having regular acupuncture and over a relatively short period of time derived huge benefits from it. She reckoned there was about an 80% improvement in her condition.

    Discussion & help on depression & mental health related issues

    I know it's easy for me to say as I'm thankfully healthy, but I do believe a positive mental attitude to ones own health benefits you physically . My old man had many many health problems and was told he was going to die several times in the last 20 years of his life. Eventually of course the...

    Sounds easy, but you have to take one step at a time. You can't worry about how your health is going to affect you in 5, 10 or 20 years, you have to focus on the immediate future. I don't know enough about UK employment law and your circumstances to give advice on your rights but are there...

    Discussion & help on depression & mental health related issues

    Interesting mate, and what I'm about to say is not meant flippantly - we all make mistakes in life and we all create disappointments for ourselves. As you very clearly realise it's how you deal with those disappointments that determine their effect. You can't change the past, but your can...

    Keep with us as far as you can mate. Take strength from the fact that your courage in talking about your situation has provided much inspiration to many who need it. Even those not in need of anything can learn much from your courage, wisdom and humility. Sadly you were dealt a poor card with...

    I haven't seen it as I'm overseas at present but I'm told the Channel 5 programme on Mental Illness 'Me & My Mental Illness' is definitely worth watching. Available on the usual catch up services on-line, would be interesting to hear from anyone who watched it.

    Discussion & help on depression & mental health related issues

    Thanks for saying that. I've never thought of this before, but I've been lucky in life that I've never really had personal problems, but have had business problems (as all businesses do) from time to time. You got me thinking about this. When businesses find the going tough their thinking...
