today I did my first bit of modelling since the death of my dad in March 2019 that caused me to go into a deep depression I just could not face modelling as he taught me all I know about Railways and modelling Then along came covid been a key worker I worked right through as a cleaning supervisor who team has they work doubled over night this then brought on anxiety as I watched members of my team go down with covid despite all the precautions we where taking I then lost two friends to covid both fit and under 30 this brought the depression back I also felt guilty as i manged to get through with out getting covid until March this year but thanks to lots of support for the wife, work and councillors I am now through the worst of it I still have bad days and have stepped down for been a supervisor life for me is Slowly getting back to normal I still find large crowds hard John
