Hi - Welcome to the forum. I'm 53 - diagnosed about 10 years ago. They keep telling me I'm chronically depressed too.
What sort of things do you enjoy doing? I build big model boats and probably a thousand other hobbies.
Things so dark, interests seem to fade away. I am interested in scale models, but can't seem to get starting building.Have bought loads and keep adding. I am wanting to move to radio control planes. The buying seems to overwhelm, mainly sorting out problems and return bad stuff that arrives. Taking a lot of my time just managing my collection, have been selling off to reduce things, but I just buy more. Get down with missing stuff I should have bought. I am also interested in old audio equipment and playing music.
set a date. Then think about it, plan it. doodle about it and on the date just do it. The building will help push away the depression. You have a lot to deal with and you have my empathy. Try and get out and join a modelling club where you can share knowledge and skills.
I'll keep that in mind
The foam board is only £20 for an 8'x4' sheet and glues with plumbers pvc glue - it's very cheap to play with to try building things.
cool
I've built a 5' Titanic from pvc foam board.
