Advice

Recognise the signs and indicators when feeling isolated & alone.
Your closest family/friends may notice changes in your body language, distant approach, lack of drive/motivation. Unable to hold eye contact. Not wanting to go out and meet up, cancelling appointments......

The most difficult moment we face when feeling anxious/depressed is the urge and instinct to pull away from those we love!

The hardest step and yet most rewarding is to accept you cannot do this by yourself. It takes great courage & strength to ask for HELP!

Pick up that phone and start your recovery by contacting your local GP,  your local crisis team &/or Mental Health Service Advisor.

NOVEMBER

POEM OF THE MONTH

Each month i will showcase one of my poems. The aim is to reach out to all those suffering in silence. You are not alone.

HEAT.

 

Chasing a dream to feel better inside, achieving a goal that fills you with pride...

Forever your story will not reach the page, until you feel happy your locked in your cage...

Pride you are seeking on ground you can stand, rising above the obscure and the bland...

Purpose gets cloudy the wind drives your pain, struggling to further ambition through rain...

How you are seen by your friends and alike, preparing that speech yet afraid of the hike...

A journey that's littered with dead ends and hurt, muddied are waters you're covered in dirt...

Temperature rising the sweat starts to drip, the glare of the sun on your brow to your hip...

Reverse not an option that ground you have walked, these words are intended to heal you through talk...

The heat of your body can sense you're so close, a passion released so I'll try not to choke...

A need to be found and simply accepted, acknowledgement for talent you hid from rejection...

A world that you feel you were meant to exist, reasons for giving, a gift to persist...

Belief that your presence has meaningful truth, the prize out of reach, but so is the noose!

Good versus evil continues to fight, testing your courage long into the night...

Sometimes I'm leaning to side with the devil, my heart hurting deeply, my body dishevelled...

It's harder to rise every time I have fallen, but something inside keeps on showing my calling...

I have to keep working to finish my task, victory will find me, I just need to ask!

 

F J Palmer.
