I can’t cope

Yes he is @outlander. Pixie is a longhair chihuahua and Gus is a black pom. They absolutely love each other. Pixie doesn’t play with any other dogs just him. They have a fantastic connection. His mum is actually a friend of my mums but when Pix and Gus started to get close we became friends. I can actually tell her most things. She is the only person in my life that knows so much other than my team of course.

@Captain24 aww lil Pix in your heart, that is incredibly cute. I feel the same about my lil fuzz bubs.

What about the forums, do they have a spot in your body? I think they live in my heart most of the time. This community is amazing, and being able to be part of it is very good for the soul in my experience.

So tough to feel obliged to participate in inane chatter hey. I would suggest you can always just say "Hey I'm very tired and not much up for talking today" - it would depend on this person's disposition as to whether they would respect your boundary or take it personally and make it harder for Pix n boyf to hang out again in future. So your call.

Other option is to pick a topic that you are actually interested in, so that the conversation becomes more engaging. Maybe a tv show you like, a hobby or topic of interest, or random cool facts you've learned. Heck, even swapping turns at telling lame jokes can be more engaging than the old, "Hi how are you how is work how's the family oh boy this weather sure is temperature, yada yada yada" 😉

Catching up on some rest time sounds like a wonderful idea. I wish you many snoozles and big sleepy vibes 😴💜

I don’t want to face my 2 appts tomorrow. I don’t want to discuss my eating.

The urge is unrelenting it’s telling me it will solve everything.

@Captain24 can totally understand how daunting it might feel hun. Hopefully the appts will end up being very helpful, and you are able to talk as openly as you feel comfortable doing.

With your urges so strong, please don't hesitate to reach out to a crisis service or other support hun. Do you think that might be a good idea?

@Captain24 hoping your appts go well today and you can get the help you deserve.

Sending lots of love 💕💕

My GP appt went okish. He has told me to take my other prn 3 times a day. My only concern is it causes weight gain and makes you really hungry. I don’t want to go down that path.

I told him about the attempt and my urge to try again. He is really concerned and wants to see me again next week.

I have a friend on the way over, I really don’t want company. I’m really anxious about my dietitian appt later. I guess it’ll be a distraction.

Why does my mind always go straight to my urge to solve everything? It’s constantly in my mind but whenever something happens or I just can’t face what’s next it’s the strongest.

Hey @Captain24 glad your gp appointment went ok. And that your gp expressed concern. I get the med = weight gain concerns. I hate it too.

Im sorry your mind always goes that way, but I get it. I really do.
sorry I don’t have much else to offer today. But can certainly sit with you. Listen when you need to vent.
