Thanks again for all of the replies. It is appreciated, I am actually quite surprised at how good the replies have been here, particularly as I am not exactly the most well known member here, and also the fact I know how these posts often come across to others. I will probably need to read this thread several times for a lot of it to even sink in!
There is a lot of good advice here, and believe me, I will read this thread again and again and certainly intend to do something about it. If anything this thread has made me realise that I am probably quite harsh on myself overall, I am perhaps my hardest critic, and I will look back on this when I feel down again.
I think I need to think about where my life is going now, it needs a change in direction, and I need to figure out just what direction I need to go. As someone else said there is no quick fixes, and its definitely going to be a work in progress. Really, I think I need to kick myself up the backside and start thinking more about what to do in the future.
I know that on the face of it my life is not bad at all really, but sometimes, and especially when you feel rather alone in the world, as I often have lately, its difficult to maintain some true perspective on things. Nevertheless, the replies here have made me realise I am not as alone as I think and that life is not as bad as I sometimes believe it to be. I think I just need reminding of that sometimes.
Thanks again.
