Drunk man runs over villager with tractor in Panchmahal; booked for murder
Vadodara: A 42-year-old man died and two others were injured after a tractor driven by an allegedly inebriated man ran over them in Dhamai village of Shehra taluka on Thursday night. The accused, Dilipsinh Patel, was arrested after a case of murder was registered against him at Shehra police station. A ccording to the complaint filed by Pravin Baria, a sarpanch candidate in the upcoming village election, the incident was not related to any political conflict. Pravin stated that he was sitting with several men outside his uncle Laxmansinh Baria's residence when Dilipsinh arrived on a tractor. Though known to the group and belonging to the same locality, Dilipsinh unexpectedly accelerated the tractor instead of dismounting to join them. While most managed to get out of the way, three people were caught in the vehicle's path. Hasmukh Patel (42) was critically injured after being run over by the tractor, while Gulabsinh Patel and Kirit Patel sustained minor injuries. Witnesses said Dilipsinh appeared intoxicated when he was pulled down from the vehicle. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Hate Unclear Trade Tips?

Corey had told his GP he had been misusing alcohol, cocaine and cannabis before his death. In a letter found after his death, he apologised for "having to go out like this". Corey said: "I can't do it anymore. I can't bare pain I'm going through. Don't do drugs, that's what has got me." The inquest heard Corey was a popular and talented young footballer who had been described by former teachers as a "bright boy who loved school sports and art". He was said to love his son and would "regularly show him off" to family members. Corey had taken on a job where he would work away from home during the week, which he told a family member he struggled with. But he had not indicated to friends, family or his girlfriend that he intended to harm himself.

Having affair drove me to mental breakdown but I fear I might end up having another one… this time with a man
DEAR DEIDRE: HAVING an extramarital affair – and the devastation it caused – drove me to a mental breakdown. So why am I flirting with another affair? I don't understand why I would play with this destructive behaviour again — especially as I know the fallout only too well. I'm 43, and married with two children. My wife is 40. Over the last few years, my marriage has been difficult. My wife and I have been arguing a lot, and our sex life has taken a dive. As a result, I found myself going online and looking at dating sites. I started chatting to a woman — and ended up meeting her for sex. I'd never been unfaithful to anyone before, and sneaking around and lying affected my mental health. I hated hurting my wife and started to question what sort of person I was. Eventually I confessed, which was awful. My wife became distraught and made me feel like a failure. I ended my affair but fell apart. I was unable to eat or sleep, and even felt suicidal. My wife said she still loved me, and wanted me to get better and for us to work. With help from my GP, and antidepressants, I started to feel better. My wife and I talked a lot, and we started having sex again — although it feels like we're going through the motions. But recently, I've started to fantasise about having sex with men, which I've never done before and don't understand why the idea of this arouses me so much. I can't tell my wife — she wouldn't understand. But I find myself looking at gay dating sites and checking out men in the street. I'm worried that I'm going to end up having another affair. Please help. Dear Deidre: Spotting the signs your partner is cheating DEIDRE SAYS: It's encouraging that you recognise how dangerous your behaviour is. This is the first step to making real change. It sounds like you are questioning your identity. It's likely your new interest in having sex with men is also a part of this identity crisis. Please talk to your GP again. Although anti-depressants have helped your depression symptoms, you need help to get to the root of your unhappiness. Ask about counselling. My support pack, How Counselling Can Help, has more information about this. Your wife needs to know you're still unhappy. Ask for her support and think about couple's counselling, where you can discuss your marriage. Get in touch with Deidre Every problem gets a personal reply, usually within 24 hours weekdays.

Let's all vow to ask for help when we need it, and listen out for others… If you, or anyone you know, needs help dealing with mental health problems, the following organisations provide support: CALM, Heads Together, HUMEN Mind, Papyrus, Samaritans, FEMALE BOSS IS PUSHING ME OUT OVER MENOPAUSE DEAR DEIDRE: I BELIEVE I'm being punished for telling my employer I'm going through the menopause. When I explained my symptoms were affecting my performance, I expected understanding and support. Instead, I've been sidelined and treated like a burden. I'm 47, and last year I started feeling off' I felt exhausted all the time, had headaches, joint pain and I couldn't concentrate. After a GP visit and various tests, I was told my symptoms were due to perimenopause. I decided to open up to my female boss, saying I was getting medical help but I needed her to know I was struggling. She wasn't understanding. And since then, I've felt she's trying to push me out. She's making me feel undermined and like I'm incompetent. I don't want to leave my job but I'm miserable, and losing all my confidence. DEIDRE SAYS: You're not alone. Research by the CIPD found two thirds of working women between 40 and 60 with menopausal symptoms said they had a negative impact on them at work. Naturally, you expected empathy. Instead, it sounds like she's discriminating against you. According to the Equality Act 2010, this could be against the law. Talk to your HR department and your trade union rep, if you have one. Contact ACAS, too, SHE'S SO YOUNG – DO I MAKE A MOVE? DEAR DEIDRE: MY feelings for my younger friend have turned sexual – but I'm scared to tell her. I fear she'll think I'm much too old for her, and then friendzone me. But I know we're perfect for each other. I'm 46 and she's 23. We're both single. We've been friends for six months, ever since meeting at a local book group. We share exactly the same interests and can talk for hours. We speak on the phone every day, and meet up for coffee. But lately I've realised I have romantic feelings for her. I think about her all the time, miss her when I'm not with her and when I'm in bed, I fantasise about her. I no longer just want to be friends and I know we'd have a brilliant relationship. However, I'm worried that if I tell her how I feel, she'll reject me – or worse, that it will ruin our friendship. DEIDRE SAYS: This is a tricky situation. You don't want to lose her friendship or to make her think your only interest in her is sexual. You're double her age and, despite your interests, have a very different amount of life experience, and a likely power imbalance. My support pack, Age Gaps – Do They Matter?, explains more. Age gap relationships sometimes work, but unless she's given you indication that she has romantic feelings too, I'd err on the side of caution. DO I TELL SON HE'S AUTISTIC? DEAR DEIDRE: AFTER years of noticing my son was different, he has finally been diagnosed with autism. I'm not sure how to tell him, as I'm worried he might not understand. Should I wait until he's older? My son is seven, and I'm his 42-year-old mum. He's a lovely, bright little boy but he's always had problems socialising with other kids, and issues at school. He was late to learn to talk and has always found it hard to cope in noisy environments. His dad and I knew there was something different about him and pushed for a referral, which took over a year. Now we've been told he's definitely on the autistic spectrum. I can't fault the NHS or his school, which have both been really supportive. But he doesn't know about his diagnosis, and I don't know how to explain it to him – or if I should. I don't want him to think he's got something wrong with him or to believe that he'll never amount to anything. I also worry about how it might affect his future , and how other people will treat him. I'd really appreciate some advice. DEIDRE SAYS: Your son is already aware he's different so it's a good idea to explain his condition to him. If you don't, he might worry more. One way to make it simple is to say that people are like smartphones. One type isn't better than another – they just run on different systems and have their own special features . So, for example, neurotypical people are iPhones and neurodiverse people, like him, are android phones. Contact the National Autistic Society (

Suicide pod activist Dr Florian Willet takes own life after arrest over ‘murder' of woman who used euthanasia device
A SUICIDE pod activist has taken his own life after being interrogated over the murder of a woman who died in one of the euthanasia devices. Florian Willet, 47, suffered a mental health crisis after he was arrested by Swiss Police last year, according to Philip Nitschke, the inventor of the Sarco suicide capsule. 2 The Sarco assisted suicide capsule Credit: AFP 2 Florian Willet has taken his own life at 47 Credit: AFP Willet, from Germany, was the director of Last Resort, the Swiss suicide organisation which operated the Sarco pods. He was also a prominent right-to-die activist. The director was investigated for aiding and abetting suicide. As part of the probe, prosecutors investigated whether he strangled the woman, but that was ruled out. Willet was released in December after being held in pre-trial detention for 70 days. Nitschke, who also directs pro-assisted dying group Exit International, said: 'Gone was his warm smile and self-confidence. In its place was a man who seemed deeply traumatised by the experience of incarceration and the wrongful accusation of strangulation." He revealed that his colleague Willet sought help and went into hospital twice before his death on May 5. Willet reportedly died in Germany with the help of a specialist organisation, though it is not known exactly how he died. Most read in The US Sun Nitschke continued: 'To describe Florian is to talk of a man who was thoughtful, caring, funny, and friendly. He was an easy person to be around. 'But most of all, Florian was kind. Florian was also passionate about a person's right to choose when to die.' More to follow...
