Depression.

I love to see the support given on this site... Makes me feel all warm inside! (& I've been accused more than once for not having any feeling; 'Emotionally Void' was the exact wording!)

It takes a huge amount of bravery to tell others about it, so I commend you (and others on this thread!) for that!

It's hard to find the words to say, because being of a 'Sunny Disposition' I could come across as being a bit too light hearted about the matter!

I had no dealing with depression/mental health, until my last girlfriend. Up to that point, I'm ashamed to say that I could of fell into the category of those who would flippantly say 'Just think positive...' and other such cliche nonsense!

She really did open my eyes to the whole thing... And I honestly wish you all the best! Look out for those signs of dips, know your triggers... It's already been said, but I don't know too much more than that.

I was like a spotter for my now ex girlfriend, I knew the signs and her triggers, but all to often would still fall short!

Anyway, I could waffle... You know that as a big family, we're always here to lend an ear. (Or an eye if we're reading!)
