How does selling on eBay affect my mental health? Part 2 – sourcing stock.

Hello readers! So I promised that I’d be doing an occasional series about things that affect my mental health. Now, normally when I write a blog on the subject of mental health it’s because mentally I’m in a bad space and so need to release some steam. However, today I’m ok you’ll be hopefully pleased to read! I have though been conscious of the fact that I promised you a part 2 to my previous blog about how selling on…

Why I Think Mental Health Awareness Week Sucks

Why I Think Mental Health Awareness Week Sucks

New blog – Today I thought I’d write about mental health awareness week and more specifically why I think it creates, not solves, problems for charities and mental health awareness. It’s quite topical as here in the UK we’re currently underway with mental health awareness week! As usual whenever there’s a charity awareness event taking place people in work are busy organising bake sales and various other good deeds to organise money for a mental health charity. Which is really admirable…

Being a man with mental illness

Being a man with mental illness

New blog – For today’s blog I thought I’d share a bit about my experiences as a man with mental illness.

If you’d like to look at her site (which I can highly recommend) you can find it by clicking here. Writing for Charlotte made me really think about…

New blog – for today’s blog I thought I’d write about exercise. For many years I’ve hard people talk about how great exercise is but I’ve never really understood this before. I’ve joined a few gyms in my time but never really seen it through. Recently though I decided to give joining the gym another go and see what all the fuss is about. And I have to say since signing up for my local branch of Pure gym I…

The benefits of anti-depressants

The benefits of anti-depressants

New blog – For today’s post I thought I’d talk about how anti-depressants can really help if, like myself, you suffer from anxiety and/or depression. If you suffer from either or both of these conditions I’m a great believer in taking anti-depressants. I take 100ml of sertraline myself every day and it’s brilliant! But for many months I resisted taking them because of the stigma around mental health and taking pills. This was a massive mistake and I will blog…
