Is it a good idea to start dating when depressed
I am currently not in the best head space and have been trying to get over someone. There's nothing in my life at the moment that is good or I look forward to. Even though I'm not in the best place should I try dating to as this could be something exciting??

Yes, please do it...anything that will get you out of the loneliness pit...we all need time to recollect, gather and regroup but go ahead and get somebody before loneliness turnes into depression. Life is short and at one time when you grow old you will talk about: I could have done this or done that but never did...instead you can have a life when ypu can say: I have done this and done that and by gosh I felt great...
Hi @Toadscalfs121,
How are you in general? Do you get any professional help, so that you can have a better insight into your situation?
I think getting over someone by replacing them with someone else can be tricky (even though most people genuinely think it's the way to go). And so can putting your own happiness in someone else's hands.
But if one wants to date and doesn't hurt anyone in the process, it should be alright. But unresolved issues often strike us back.
I hope you'll be able to get in touch with your true self very soon and answers will come to you.
