[QUOTE="TheScottishDairyman, post: 4961932, member: 70556"] Hi. Iv recently been to see the doctor about depression. It’s been bothering me for a lot of months now but iv been trying to hide it from family and friends as I felt there was a bit of shame behind it to admit that I wasn’t coping. However my wife and family figured things out and got me to the doctor and iv since been put on anti depressants. I find it a hard thing to talk about with family as they’ve never been through any thing like this and just don’t no what to say for the best. The thing I’m finding hardest to deal with is I’m a stockman I work for a good farm. Not huge pressures put on me by them however I put huge pressures on my self. I’m finding it extremely hard to cope with the bad days that you have with livestock at the moment and I feel that that is where a lot of the problems have arose from. I’m questioning at the moment if a move away from livestock is what I’m going to need to get my mental health back on track. I apologise for my long winded nothingless speech I just thought it might help if I shared. [/QUOTE]
