50 and Coping? Episode 3: Jim and Lee Robinson discuss anti depressants as Jim is now on Sertraline.

A coping mechanism I never thought id use is an anti anxiety medication or anti depressant. It simply wasn't the answer for me right up until it was! I was struggling to deal with the levels of anxiety I was feeling so I needed to confront that before it took me over. I didn't realise that all of my interactions with my wife and child were marred by my anxiety.

As this way forward is happening at the same time as making these shows it only makes sense that I honestly talk about what's happening and how it affects me!

We talk about walk and talk that Lee goes to here is a link for that:

50 and Coping is a podcast video show that looks to explore people’s coping mechanisms to trauma and mental health issues.

At no time are we suggesting we have all the answers but we have lived our lives and have coped with many things and if our experience can give any solace or guidance then we see that as a positive.
