Just thought of something to report, though it's not massively related to this thread I get the impression some of you may have had similar experiences, perhaps even gone through it yourself and could offer me some advice on the best way to deal with this.

One of my mates used to smoke A LOT of weed. To the point that people around him were pretty much begging him to stop. He came off the weed about 2 months ago, and about 3 weeks ago he was diagnosed as clinicly depressed. He was supposed to come to Reading with me and a couple of his other mates, but dropped out the day before because he can't drink on the medication - this was the first we heard of this btw. He's now waking his girlfriend up at night shouting at people who aren't there, and can't go out iin public because he thinks people are talking about him and will shout at them.

I'm quite worried about her as well as him, as I've known her for years and she's not one to talk about her problems and is more likely to shut herself away as well. Just not sure what, if anything I can be doing as a friend in this situation, other than letting them both know I'm there for them if and when they're ready to talk to people.

I have been lead to believe he's getting help, but I'm not 100%, I've tried talking to his GF a couple of times, but she's made it pretty clear she doesn't want to talk about it.

Forgot to mention that as well as coming off ridiculous amounts of weed every day, his brother (who is also like a best mate to him) is moving to America in a couple of months. So I imagine that's probably contributed too.

I just fell in love with a girl in Tesco. She.Was.Stunning. I think she liked me too because every time I looked at her she was looking at me. But I couldn't approach her (not that I would have done anyway), because she appeared to be with her dad. Ok maybe she was quite young, but I don't care, she was at least 18 and oh so ripe

It's definitely love

Nice one. You deserve it :D

There is something occurring in my life at the moment, but I am taking things really slowly. She is lovely and believe it or not, I do not say anything offensive or outrageous around her (Ok that may not be as true as it should be). I am being very careful on what I am telling her, without holding back, if you know what I mean. The issue of the kids in care has come up, as has my alcoholism, but when we have gone out I have not drunk (I know that shocked me as well). We get on really well :D

Its a different lad... not local either, this one is from Liverpool!! lol. Not heard from Bolton, and wouldnt even class him as an ex! We have a lot of history, split up about 2 years ago now, and have talked about getting back together, but never did. I absolutely love him to bits but theres just stuff thats happened in the past that always causes us to argue, he wont move on from it, even though he loves me and wants to be with me. A few weeks ago he decided that if we werent gonna be together we have to stop talking completely (we still spoke most days on msn/text/phone) coz otherwise neither of us would properly move on from it. Now i dunno what we r doing :D

All very confusing!
