Hi

It wouldn't put me off if someone worked part-time (or unemployed) as long as they did something useful with their time! I've been very low in the past due to 2 bereavements and it's hard to keep going sometimes. My doctor was a big help but my friends helped me even more. It's important to talk to someone - whether in the caring profession or family/friends. Things always seem worse when you are on your own. At least you're back part time. Take it a step at a time and give yourselves goals each week - even if it's just ringing a friend and asking them to go to the cinema or cooking yourself a healthy meal. Hope you're feeling better soon.

Yeah,ill just keep on waiting & trying different things.Im going back to college this year thatl keep my brain ticking over. Its funny my sisters called sally & her surname starts with d so she calls herself sally d as well.what a coincidence,lol.hope you stay well.rob

I think working part-time is not the issue?

My housemate also suffers from depression, but as long she takes her medicine, everything is fine.....

Yeah im coming off meds soon after being on it for bout 2 years,hopefully i'll be ok.had a bit of a manic life but now im 31 im starting to chill out a bit in my old age.But ive been in & out the docs for the last 10 years,o well musnt grumble least t hey can help!

Good luck man, I had some problems when I was in my early twenties, mostly due to youth and excess, but thankfully the love of a good woman helped me get back on track and I'm really happy with how my life has turned out.

Tomorrow is another day.

there is nothing wrong with that man everyone has problems they face and im sure there will be the kindest girl to love you there always is best of luck to you man

I wouldn't worry man, the most important thing is to keep going, and never be idle, and never cut yourself off. There's a lot of good people on these forums, Im sure you'll find someone.

As for people who validate themselves and define you only by the means of a job, well....they generally are in need of a swift kick up the arse for complete lack of personality. Un PC i know, but it does them (and you) an awful lot of good.

my problem is I work too Much, dont even have time for my self, Id think a women likes it when you give her the time she needs wit u, and less work. but hey, thats life. What can you do

Occupation makes no odds to me (so long as its not criminal or anything like that LMFAO)

So no, your being part-time wont be an issue, unless they are amazingly shallow.
