Hi Al,
many thanks for your reply, and taking the time to offer support :-). In my case some serious long term medical conditions including breast cancer have impacted on my mental well being, causing first anxiety and eventually depression. I take good heed about taking small steps, it is a good point, especially if the end result is good! Unfortunately at the moment ill health is impacting on my feelings, making me feel extremely down. I have spoken to some health professionals about this, but as I am not a drama queen I don’t think they realize the severity of it???

Many thanks again
