Hi Anthony
We've moved your thread into our drop-in clinic - support for dads, so you can get the advice and support you need.
Hi there Anthony,
I'm Ashley, one of the Netmums Parent Supporters.
You're looking to connect with some other Netdads and Netmums, but I wanted to pop onto your thread to ask a little about your mood and mental health.
You've said you're feeling down and lonely most days - how long have you been feeling this way, Anthony? Have you got any support for your mental health?
Please don't feel you need to answer if you'd prefer not to. But if you'd like to reply, we're here to listen and support if we can.

Hey Ashley I have yes thank you iv worked in mental health for 9 years so iv got some good people to talk to. I’m happy but my life can have so lonely times I have a daughter she’s 7 I want to do the best for her like most parents want to do for their own children I live with my partner who at times I just don’t want to be with. We split up over 2 year ago and because we have a daughter I wanted to try and make it work so we are back together but at times I think I just wanted to get back for the sake of my daughter and nothing else
