Something’s not right

Not Coping

Not Coping

Hey everyone how are you all?

@RiverSeal @Shaz51 @NatureLover @tyme @Former-Member @Eve7 @Former-Member @amber22 @Jynx @FloatingFeather

I'm not doing great at all today. I'm feeling down. I also keep beating myself up for everything and feel like I'm just failing. I need a break from everything. It's getting so hard that I don't know how to keep going anymore especially since I can't talk to anyone around me as they are leaving me or don't understand.

Hope you don’t mind me reaching out I just really need a chat and though I could come on here and vent and talk for a bit.

Thank you

I’m not sure @Birdofparadise8. I started a new medication 2 weeks ago and it was increased last week to double the dose. This one requires having extra salt and drinking lots of water. It feels like low blood pressure but I’m not sure. I will email my nurse and ask.

Have a good day at work.

Re: Tw Not Coping

Ah ok do you have a blood pressure monitor you could check it with?

Yeah I’ll try I’m at the Covid at home one today so as long as it’s busy I’ll be okay.

Do you have work today @Captain24

Re: Tw Not Coping

No I don’t. I’m hoping my nurse gets my email while I’m at the hospital getting my blood test. @Birdofparadise8. They have a meeting Friday mornings though.

I hope it’s really busy for you to make the day go quicker and keep you distracted. I know for me work keeps me safe.

I have a physio appointment at 11:30. So I’ll have to have brunch and drop Pixie off early. Then I’ll come home and sleep. I have my first of three night shifts tonight. Without the right prep I struggle badly!

That’s nice then @Captain24

Yeah it helps keep me safe too.

That sound like a nice idea.

I’ll talk to you later then have a good day!

Hey @Birdofparadise8

Hope work was busy for you and that you are feeling ok.

Hope you don’t have Covid @tyme and are feeling better.

After a really busy morning, the only time a sat down was for the blood test! I did get all the stuff for the Christmas cake though! I had a really good sleep.

Im just about to head out of town for work.

Have a good night both of you

Re: Tw Not Coping

I thought I had COVID, but I've had 5 RATs done, and they are all coming up as negative @Birdofparadise8 . Who knows?

In response to: Re: Tw Not Coping

Re: Tw Not Coping

Oh can you get a PCR test to double check sometimes they are more accurate @tyme?

In response to: Re: Tw Not Coping

Re: Tw Not Coping

I'll see how i go tonight @Birdofparadise8 - definitely PCRs are more accurate.

My sister just contacted me and said one of my nieces was up all night feverish and vomiting...now my next niece was sent home from school vomiting and coughing.... maybe its just a bug?
