I can’t cope

I’m too tired and too sick tonight. @tyme. I’m sorry I’m going to get some sleep. Have a good night.

All good. Take care @Captain24

Hugs

Hoping you got a good nights sleep @Captain24 and today is going well for you 💕💕

I slept really well @Snowie and feel

so much better for it today. I’m feeling really good. About to start packing.

There’s this old guy that lives in the town I’m from and he brings a horse and sulky to town when he comes in. I’m 4 hrs away and just met his cousin while I was on my walk! Small world!

A good nights sleep can help us so much @Captain24 I'm glad you were able to have one and that it helps your mood today.

I find packing alone can bring up some emotions. Excited that you are going home but at the same time scared that things will just go back to how it was before I was admitted. Now you might not have these emotions at all, but if you do they are completely normal to have.

Wow, it certainly is a small world!!

My anxiety is through the roof!!! My heart is racing so much.

Ive packed and I have a Pdoc appointment at sometime tonight. Just not knowing what time isn’t helping. Plus I think they have done my discharge but I’m not sure. I’ve signed off on my care plan. I have to pick stuff up at the nurses station in the morning.

I’m getting really scared about whether or not I can do this when I get home. Can I keep myself well? Everything is still the same at home. I have changed though. There is just so much going on in my head. It’s just too loud.

Totally legit and totally normal @Captain24!! It's like you say, home will be the same, but you have changed, so it might feel a bit wonky when you first get back!

Can you keep yourself well? I reckon you can do you best - it's all any of us can ever do! You might make mistakes, have slip ups and stumbles along the way, but it's all part of the learning and growth. And even if things crash and burn and you need another admission, that's also okay, because you will not be starting from scratch, you'll be building upon foundations already built.

Only way to know is to press on, and we'll be with ya every step 😁💜

oh hon @Captain24 I ask myself the same questions. I wish I had an answer for you.

All I can do is be here with you through all of it 💕💕

I reckon it’s important to be realist @Captain24 you haven’t healed a lifetime of trauma in 3 weeks…. So you will have times… moments… things will happen. But you have learnt new skills, you’re not the same person that walked through those doors 3 weeks ago. You have changed. We already know that you’re going home to environments that haven’t changed, but you are stronger and you have learnt new boundaries and heaps of other cool things to help you in your daily life. It will be hard at times, you’ll wanna quit. But you got this. Have a little faith in yourself.

Are there some key things that you feel you need to make immediate changes to that will help you succeed?
