First of all, welcome to the forums, where we all love G&G's. You'll meet some really helpful and great people on here. It was hard at first to tell anyone about my depression (don't think that I'm having it bad, there are some people who have had it a lot worse than me) but it's like a barrier has been broken once you've got your story out. Writing down is indeed a good idea, or attleast I think so, it makes logical sense to. As I said earlier, it is like taking your worries away from your mind. (I'm astonished at how many well being people there are on here, jeez.) As I said, everyone on here is nice, you'll like it here. Lots of knowledgeable people on here who'll help you out if in need. Hit me up on PM if you want to talk Have a good day lad.

Wow n1ckh, hope you're doing okay now, or getting along with what you can. Makes my problem a minor one. I'm pretty sure the best remedy for depression is to talk about it. Talking kind of let's all the tension and worries out. Hope you do okay in the long run.

Thanks guys, it seems that depression has happened to a lot of people, thanks duck, trying to look at the positives rather than the negatives, is a good point, and, I agree that there is worse stuff going on. Thanks duck, really grateful for a fantastic reply. Have a great day. Rock, I do a lot of hobbies, and that takes my mind of it all. When it comes to Sunday, I'm a melt, but that's most likely because of school the next day. I don't really want to shut myself in, but, I do it, I don't know why, it's a pain, it's not an often occurrence though. I generally talk to my mum about this, but she has limited her help, as she thinks almost every time I see her I'm upset, so she just can't be bothered with it all anymore, this alone, made me upset, that she didn't help me, but I'll just wait a while, won't cause any problems and all should be okay. Thanks guys, I'm quite surprised people helped, just shows how strong and friendly the airsoft community and forum is. Thanks guys.

Oh right, well, that's new. Makes some sense though, thanks.

I like the idea of this, on a similar point, I think another method was to write my queries down on a note, and burn the note. But I do like the idea of writing it in a letter, as I potentially can't get my words out. I'll keep you updated on what happens, depression is an a**

If there are no side mounts, use zip ties! I have this tubular flash light, and just zip tied it on, I obviously made sure it was very tight, and i cut the tie down a bit to make it look less stupid. Goodluck. EDIT: just saw you're using a laser, not sure what/how lasers in airsoft work. But for flashlights, I used a zip tie, zip ties could potentially be an option, just floating an idea in your head

Been told this many a time. My mum is basically a counsellor, she is a psychologist, and she can understand a lot of stuff with the brain and feelings etc, just after this bit if awkwardness, she's not really been her self, she hasn't really helped me, but she has helped me. It's a weird one, she's helped me, but she hasn't helped me loads. Thanks.

Hey guys, I don't know why I am posting this, and to be honest, I'm going to regret it, but I would like some advice, or just anyone whos experienced this. Basically, at home to cut a long story short, my mum and dad split up ( they are both lovely people and very friendly, they just took different paths ) but, my mum then met another guy, who is also nice, but this man isn't like a permanent thing, he just sees mum every now and then. This is good, because he makes my mum very happy. And he doesn't live with me, he's not like a step dad or any of that malarkey. Then a problem has a occurred, as this guy comes round, just to be at the house, to talk to mum etc my depression kicks in, and one of the modes of depression I suffer is where I lock myself away, this can be seen as to gain attention, but it's just because I'm a mess at that point in time. Other things happen, like mum tries to take me along to things, and sometimes I say no. Now, the problem, my mum gets upset, and because I'm a considerate person, I'm only happy when all of my family are happy. This therefore makes me upset mum gets upset because of me being awkward, and she feels like she's stepping on egg shells. If anyone has advice, or has had experience please tell me. I'm up for talking about it (If anyone took the time to read this, I'm very grateful for that, and hope you all have a great day, for taking the time to read my post)

I'll check some of those out, I like Nov and bodge though!

Good point, I enjoy sniping, as the intensity of walking slowly through thick and dense forest to then hear a snap of a twig - signalling there's an enemy nearby, oh, that must be so exciting. I know sniping is slow, but I can imagine being somewhere, scanning the area, then see some movement far ahead. Then, you arise your sniper, pull the bolt back, 'klink' , a bb has been flung towards the enemy. It misses, and he now knows your position, and you get pelted with 30 BBs.

Eh, was randomly looking through a dictionary, came across the word, and, well, it boggled my mind..

Oh, LOL! Never knew that was an airsoft shop... Thanks for that, probably will stick with the one I was previously looking at, as it's cheaper, and I'm only 14, so I don't have much money. Thanks for that site though, wasn't really wanting one, but I'll certainly have a look into it. Thanks very much

JEEZ! I have to wait 4 weeks or so till I can get my hands on the beast (TM vsr) lol. Anyone had experience in having to wait to get a gun you'd really like? How do you cope? Lol, patience is not an attribute I have.

What youtubers do you like to watch? Airsoft or not, who are your favourite youtubers? Have a good day. (I generally watch youtube, as I suffer from bipolar disorder, so yeah :/)

If you can find the website of your local sites, look on their website, and they often have a "game days" page, which will tell you what events come up. I know my local sight has a milsim every month or so, and they are normally over two days. So check the website if the site. Goodluck

I'm based in suffolk, and I travel up to thetford for my games, when I play. Welcome to the mystic land of the forums.

Ok then. I like the idea if the cardboard. Thanks for the review.

Been looking myself, if you measure your waist size, searching for some plate carriers will be so much easier. Since your 5'10" I'm pretty sure that's more or less irrelevant, I may be wrong, but when looking at plate carriers they give you a rough size guide, and it's all about waist size. Of you're from the UK, go to the website called "Military1st.co.uk" they do free delivery and sell great army clothing & equipment. Here's one that may be good for you, http://www.military1st.co.uk/201042-003-condor-sentry-lightweight-plate-carrier-tan.html. Goodluck! Let me know if you find any!

Toy guns, yes. But, can inflict pain, not as toy as those action men

Guys, I understand most of you are grown up, and have a different sense of humour to my sort of age. This is not aggressive, it's a fact. Most 14 year olds may joke about, well I don't know, but, something stupid to do with sex. But say people of the age of 20+ may have a slightly more sarcastic way of portraying their humour. This is completely cool, luckily, I was brought up by a family who are generally quite jokey, so I can take some joking about. Airsoft isn't really my age group thing, so I don't really fit in here, but, I do my best to get along. Have a good day guys

Just found something out, my waste size is 27 inches. I'll look into a JPC ad they seem to be nice and tight

Ew, 200 quid. Lozart did recommend me a plate carrier earlier, it has straps, and seems quite small: http://www.military1st.co.uk/201042-003-condor-sentry-lightweight-plate-carrier-tan.html

We are on our journey to getting it, we're going to play a game in two weeks or so, bring the ukara form and get it stamped. Then play like the week after, then have to wait 2 months, I think that's how it works... The "3 games in no less than 2 months" confuses me.

where from? Which website.

That link - I'll hav a look at my waist size tommorow, it says 30-46" that's probably father right fit.. Plus UK seller, thanks for the help!
