Quoted from DB


You make a very good point Rick, dwelling on negatives does not help.

I've met many people who also think too much about the past, and then get upset that they can't do what they use to, earn what they use, etc. The past is great it's where we come from, it's our own personal history, but it is the past and to me should be left there and not dwelt on.

I think it is better if people try to accept current situations for what they are and manage them. Life is not a bed of roses but we can remember the past, learn from it, keep the memories and move on. It is the moving on that helps us cope.


Thanks for the input DB and I agree with all you say  đŸ‘.



One life,one love .

A good article from GL. Mental health can hit at any age and needs more support from the NHS than it gets.

Areas like Grimsby have high rates of ‘poor’ mental health but local psyche is to ‘suck it up and crack on’…places like Grimsby, Hull, Doncaster and so forth are seen as hard places to live but for many the notion that you can’t show weakness is still a thing.

I’ve said all along, the only pandemic this country really has is suicide, particularly in men. Services aren’t always available and if they are they’re stretched to within an inch of their lives. That said; what suppprt is available, particularly for adults locally is very good. I’m sure some will argue different…


'the poor and the needy are selfish and greedy'...well done Mozza

Open up to people and dont keep negative stuff in. It could be the difference between life and death for some.

Nice story from this once young football media celebratory who got a trial with Ajax.

Fantastic thread, sadly I've only jusy come across it. I've read page 1 so far but promise over the next few days I'll read the rest...
Last year I escaped a toxic relationship and was homeless for a couple of days down in Somerset. I maamaged to get myself a place above someone's garage and did 10 sessions of talk therapy (it really helped) ii also joined talk club on Facebook (men only) strongly suggest anyone else who has ups and downs to join as they're brilliant.
For me right now I'm in the best place I've been since moving away from grimsby 10 years ago. Lovely girlfriend, nice decent size rented house and I get to have my son as much as I like without the nagging in my ear of my ex (not his mum)
Currently laid in bed on the willows in the house I grew up in excited for the game today.

All I will say before I do get around to reading all the pages is TALK. DON'T BE AFRAID TO OPEN UP AND TALK. My bond with my dad is the best it has ever bee. Because I opened up.

Great to hear that you’ve made such progress Luke.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I've heard from people who I know that work in the services that suicide sometimes happens . Just saw this on Twitter which I felt the need to share:
