Hello to all, my name is Dave and I live in the UK. Over the past 5 months I have gone through a stage in my life I didn't think I would ever be in. A relationship break down has caused my head and body to switch off.

I know I'm not alone in this and I know that my situation may be so small compared to some.

I have cried, screamed, tried things to take the pain away but nothing had worked. Then I started to write things down in a journal and every week I've added my thoughts down on paper to subconsciously get them out of my head.

I have also read 7 books in 7 weeks to find answers, from memory to neuology to psychology. I am now a little better and have learnt to help others which in turn helps myself. I am no expert but I have been through everything and now that my hand is held out for anyone that needs support.
