This is a perfect starting point for anyone that wants to get clued up on mental health.

It then goes on to list some tips on how to manage and look after your mental health and well-being. 5 Stars
SpellCast – A comprehensive compendium of spells, oils, charms and talismans. Learn more here. A review:
Love this book – its very profound and down-to-earth at the same time, and explains it really well. Every spell is tried and tested – some are instant and others more elaborate. Tried the instant car parking spell and it worked – wunderbar, as they’ve all got three cars around here. Highly recommended!! 5 Stars
The Alcohol Therapy Workbook – A workbook designed for anyone that is struggling with alcohol or has struggled with alcohol in the past. Learn more here. A review:
The book is fantastic for anyone who has a problem with alcohol. It is written in a style which is easy to understand and is set out in a fantastic chronological order. The value of the author with extensive experience of working in a hospital environment helps an individual to deal with any challenges that they may face when trying to make changes and or stop using alcohol. If you are unsure where to start this book will set you on the right track. This is one of the best self help books I have ever read. It makes a treatment journey seem more achievable. This can be used in conjunction with any other treatment programme to help support change. 5 Stars
My Royal Navy Friend – Contains 52 emails sent to my friend Roy who enlisted in the Royal Navy; these emails are funny and interesting. Learn more here. A review:
I absolutely loved this book. I loved the concept of email exchanges as a layout for a book. The list of jokes especially made me laugh. A really interesting concept that’s fun to read and a rare book that you can read multiple times and still find enjoyment. 5 Stars

Comedian Miranda Hart has recently revealed that she has found true love and married her partner at 51 years old. Miranda described her new husband as her best friend in a recent interview I saw.
Go Miranda! I couldn’t be happier for her.
Finding love is hard. It feels harder now, even though we have an abundance of Apps to help us to connect romantically with others.
I’ve been joking with people recently, saying that my insulin pump, which I have named Ivan is probably going to be the last man that I ever sleep with. But we all want love off a special someone don’t we?
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about why I am reluctant put myself out there. To date or to even think about getting into a relationship with anyone. I’ve had a couple of revelations about how I operate when dating or in a relationship with a man. I’ve realised that when I’m seeing someone, I expect the man to do one of two things:
Leave me for someone else, usually so they can give it a go with an ex. OR
To start to drink heavily, at best ignoring me, at worst becoming abusive in some way.
Let’s put it bluntly: I am always waiting for the other shoe to drop. Emotionally, I don’t feel I am enough to make someone happy. Which is ridiculous because I have a lot to offer someone special. I’m a nice guy, positive, occasionally funny and on some rare occasions can be magnificent.
But I know where this feeling of inadequacy comes from. It comes from my teenage years. In the relationships I had and saw around me.
In psychanalytic circles, there’s something about if you want something different from your relationships (not just romantic ones), then you need to change your dance. The first step to changing any thoughts, feelings or behaviours is to know what your dance is and where it comes from.
So I know my dance and where it comes from. To change it though, I would need to date someone again. I’ll be honest, I’d given up on this area of my life.
But Miranda’s story has made me feel that perhaps, just perhaps, there’s hope for me yet.
