I can’t cope

Thankyou @Nala2022 sweet ❤️. I really hope i can get some answers cos things are too much the way they are (I'm safe).

I really hope you’re able to get some answers today too @MissGremlin. You’ve got a lot going on, so hopefully your appointment gives you some clarity and support around what you’ve been experiencing.

I’m glad you’re safe. Be gentle with yourself today 💛

@Nala2022 I've got everything written down to talk to my doctor, there's my sleep study referral, my heart, jaw, blood test results and I need scripts.

I'm trying really hard to take things slowly, just when I thought things couldn't get any worse today and then my heart plays up more 😞. If I didn't have my appointment to go to I'd be calling an ambulance with how bad things are feeling at the moment (I'm safe).

I'm glad you've got everything written down for your appointment @MissGremlin. Hopefully that makes it a little easier to explain everything to your doctor

I'm really sorry your heart is playing up more today, especially when you're already dealing with so much. Please don't feel like you have to push through if things become too much before your appointment, if you feel you need urgent medical help, it's okay to seek it

For now, just keep taking things slowly and focus on getting through one moment at a time 💛

@Nala2022 I've just gotten to my doctors surgery so now I'm waiting. It's alot to deal with right now especially on so little sleep.

I’m just about to jump in the shower. @MissGremlin

How are you and how did you GP appointment go?

@Captain24 it's been quite the day here, my heart has decided to go psycho today. Referral has been done for the sleep study and also for the holter test for my heart. Unfortunately he said if my heart doesn't settle I'll need to go to hospital and also stop the medication I've been on as it's not having any benefit for me.

How are you doing sweet?

Sorry it’s been a rough day @MissGremlin

At least you have the referrals sorted. Maybe hospital can help settle it.

shame about the medication though

Im just about to go in. Feeling a little anxious tonight though. Working on my breathing and calming my body.

I hope tonight is easier on you.

@Captain24 really wanting to avoid hospital if I can.

It sucks about the medication cos that was my last chance to get any relief from the nightmares.

You're doing well sweet, you've got this. Sending you lots of love and hugs ❤️.

Hellooooo @Captain24!

How are you?

I just read your message from the 4th at 7.08 - soooo amazing!! I would love to hear more about what finding your window of tolerance has looked like. 🤩

It must feel so nice to notice this growing part of yourself; to know that regulation is this accessible for you. It will shift and change, yes, but to know what it feels like in such a significant way is huge!!

Have you and your therapist talked about strategies to help connect you to this part of yourself when things are tough? 🫶
