Hi all bloody hell this feels weird writing on here again ..

Anyway some might be bothered others not but I'm gonna tell you all Anyway hahah..

Some of you might remember I  lost little sister a short while back unexpectedly which in all honesty still today ive not dealt with or accepted in all honesty.

I then got covid bad which seemed like i was meant to not be here anymore it really really affected me infact so bad I tried to take my own life, I saw no other way tbh , i obviously wasn't successful but I was In a real dark spot. Infact so low it seemed the only way to end the pain of everything.

I'm getting better but I just wanted to drop in and say to anyine struggling with mental health or bereavement don't give up because that's the easy way ,  Seek help and family. Speaking to someone is the key.

Anyways I hope everyone is well and we sign a bl00dy striker today . Anyway off for a hotdog hahah (some will catch on )

Take care and be back soon x

Glad to hear your on the Mend Jonny, Mental health is still a topic that there is a taboo about, no shame in talking about it.

Keep up the good work on your health. It takes a hell of a lot to put in your post what you did. I hope this helps others who tend to clam up about mental health. Please open up with your problem, family, doctor or even send a PM.

It's good to talk.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Brave post and pleased your getting help. One of the good things about this forum is that it is often a platform to share this sort of thing - many people go through similiar but don't often seek help. Its good to talk and share and can only be a positive thing. We can be a tetchy lot at the best of times but we can also be very supportive.

Well done for posting this and I'm glad that you are getting better. It puts things into perspective at a time when people are seeming to get all upset about lack of football transfers.

Enjoy your LJL hotdog.

Absolutely this!

Be it for jonny or for anyone else, talking helps. It's not an instant fix and it isn't a cure or solution, but it helps!

Glad to see your feeling up to posting on here, which sounds like progress in itself! Keep at it, take each day as it comes and you'll get there.

Puts our grief surrounding the signing of a new striker into perspective and demonstrates our health is the most important possession available. Hope a trip down BP to see us progress in the FA Cup next week could help your continued recovery.

Keep talking and smiling

Glad you're OK fella, really good to open up (although hard) so well done.
We do have a thread in non football about mental health, if you ever have spare time pop over and have a read, chat, comment etc. We're all in it together.

Good to see you’re back. Hope to see more from you in the future.
Always remember there’s people who would really be sad they didn’t know what was going on, and might have been able to help, even people you don’t actually know.
Don’t be hard on yourself buddy.

Great to hear that your coming out the other side. I found https://andysmanclub.co.uk/ a real help on a Monday night at the college, just in case and as Lukeo mentioned there is a thread on the non footy. Just writing down your opening post takes a lot of courage and in its own way hopefully helped you and others with similar issues.
