I think you missed the point  but whatever…

I don’t think Jamie tried to hi jack the thread, just point out some home truths to Linda,in fact, I think if anyone has empathy with Nem, its Jamie, what she says is from personal experience, and from a point of compassion. To truly feel empathy and compassion one needs to have experienced the feelings of others.

 And bone/hip issue. Forgot what call that.

Dysplasia. Lots of breeds suffer from it, but it’s mainly in larger dogs like German, Shepherds , Lab’s, Rottie’s, St Bernards etc etc. Terriers can be prone to skin issues,  just do a bit of research first, most pedigree’s will be prone to something or other but that does’nt mean they will get it, diet can play a big part in preventing certain illness’ they may be prone to. Mongrel’s are less prone to illness and can be the best, most loyal dogs ever so a rescue centre may be worth a visit, whatever floats your boat really.

Not many Nem, not without some sort of outside intervention, be it a teacher, foster parent etc, without outside intervention they just continue the family circuit, as Ge would say, rinse, repeat on and on.

I hope things improve for you Echo but would question whether depression is a mental illness or a natural state of affairs to a finite existence. Society decrees in what is perceived to be a normal life for the first 15-22 years of life we attend educational establishments normally learning material that has no relevance in the real world unless your course/degree is tailor made to a specific job. Then society demands for the next 45 years we all work in jobs which can be underpaid, mundane whilst paying extortionate prices for piles of bricks and mortar juggling obscene charges/bills in tax /energy companies etc. On top of that we all have to negotiate the daily risks of crime being stabbed/ robbed which have been alluded to on the other thread, responsibilities entailed with children/relatives etc

At the age of 65 or thereabouts society allows us to get off the rat race wheel of work with a persons best years behind them, with using a median average of life expectancy, less than 15 years left before oblivion( unless you are religious) which I’m not. Even then many of these years are likely to be dogged by ill health, suffering and possibly poverty issues as many pensioners are unable to survive on the meagre pensions paid out. The blueprint is hardly conducive to being cheerful is it?

0-16/22 years of age = learning pointless information in a flawed curriculum

22-65 years= rat race of in many cases awful futile job roles in order to be a valuable contributor to society

65 to a likely age of around 80= deteriorating health, mobility issues

80 or when the grim reaper calls= death with everything you were or are at time of death gone forever into oblivion with your corpse either incinerated or left to rot underground eaten by worms

I dont see how anyone being depressed by that set of events is mentally ill, infact I’d say it was a natural reaction to a finite existence with no discernible purpose other than satisfying the whims of each persons own conscious state during the few years we are alive.

Well if I wasn’t before ……..
