Hi everyone, this is all new to me so be easy on me!. I'm a 25 year old female, recently single after a 9 year relationship/ marriage. I've struggled with mental health problems all my life, I recently had surgery on my knee which I have not healed properly from. I do have some amazing friends around me who try and love and support me. But all I have been thinking about is trying to CTB? I've scrolled through a lot of posts on here and I'm glad I found like minded people. So where do I start? I'm in the UK, is it hard to get hold of what I need? Where do I look? Search? Again sorry if I seem a total newbie to this site. Just trying to work it all out. Any advice or pointing in the right direction would be sweet. Thank you all 😌

I'm UK as well. Had CT scans on my knee but it was from massive inflation (bursitis). What happened to your knee?

that stuff has a low percentage outcome unfortunately- my ligaments were ok on the scans but knees are one of the worst post injury. I don't know why a lot of people jog on concrete - it absolutely blasts your knee joints - it's a normie thing anyway but I don't get it.

Yeah as tears in rain said check the resources threads.

I've started to have a read through it all. Glad I've found some good info. First time I've posted. Unsure what to say or how to explain things 🤣
