    So my best friend got engaged. Jelous? Yep. Not the engagement bit, I'm just really jealous that somebody else has something great going on in their life and I don't. I feel like a bitch and rightly so.

    I have gratefully accepted my role as Cheif Bridesmaid and despite what I've just said I am genuinely happy for her and her boyfriend and I hope they have a long, happy life together. So I will instead focus on…

    So Saturday night I got a phonecall from my dad. My dad ringing me never results in anything good.

    This had happened:

    5mph more and he wouldn't have missed that tree. When the car rolled onto it's side it was about 3 foot away from it. You can see just from the tyre tracks alone how lucky he was.

I just want to let people know on here who read my blog that I had depression for nearly 9 years and I know all my signs. I know when I'm about to fall and I know when I need to get help before I cant get back up again.

    I very often get people worrying about me when I have periods like this, where I'm not sleeping/eating etc. Unfortunately…

    I''ve had a very strange couple of days.

    On Wednesday evening after work I went to see my mum and it's probably the first time I've seen her 'down' in a long time. I know she was trying really hard to be enthusiastic and chatty and pleased to see her daughter, but I could tell deep down she was tired, in discomfort and probably just wanted to be alone. I was only there for an hour or so and it was…
