Do you mean the webinar???

I couldn't watch it, but I will as soon as it comes out. I'm really interested.

He is the only one I feel comfortable with to share everything without fear of repose. @tyme He was the only one that didn’t judge me for stopping my meds. He listens but he hears you at the same time

The receptionist told me, so when I see home when I get back I will ask for recommendations. Most of the GP’s here have closed their books.

I can ask about Telehealth but I’m guessing he will go into a practice over there and not have time.

Why? @tyme Why?

Yes @tyme. It was awesome. It was so good to hear actual lived experience with bipolar and get it. To know that I am not alone. Other than the psychosis it resonated so much.

Yeah... that's so tough. And it sounds like where you are doesn't give you much choice even if you have $$$. That's the hard part.

Your feelings are valid. It hurts. It's like being rejected and abandoned all at once.

It sounds like you can't do anything tonight such as call them or ask for recommendations.

How about focus on some self-soothing strats to help you through the now?

I really hope to catch up with you tomorrow @Captain24

Thanks @tyme. I’m just going to go to bed, it’s the safest with my thoughts. I also responded to your other post!!

Good night my dear @Captain24 . Will chat tomorrow.

Morning @Captain24

Wishing you a good day today

Hey @Captain24 hoping that your day is going ok? I try and read along… read that your gp is leaving…. That sucks. Hoping that you can get in with someone else who can provide you with just as much support.

I bought more Lego today 🫣 I really have no room for it, but I did need it 😂

@Captain24 sucks to hear about your GP leaving and your CM experience not going well! I know how important that rapport must've been.

Hope you're feeling a bit better today!

Since you were able to build such a great rapport with your previous GP, I have no doubt you'll be able to do it again with someone new - you got this & we're here for you 💗

Hey @Captain24 sorry I didn't end up replying at ALL last night, I too was pretty absorbed in the Webinar! And then suddenly it was clock off time haha.

And yeah, I think for me the best thing about the webinar was just how open, almost casual she was with sharing her story, which I think really goes a long way to helping us to de-stigmatise. Like, "No, I'm not gonna talk about this in hushed tones behind closed doors because this is just part of life for me."

How are you feeling this evening hun? 💜

And big wave hello 👋 to you as well @Bow and @Snowie, how've you two lovelies been chugging along today? 😁
