not feeling good

not feeling good

At the moment i am not feeling good. i feel like my body is in 'run away mode'. i feel my body is running on a high, my head is so mixed up. i have to go to bed and try to sleep, but don't know if i can.

my hormones are everywhere at the moment; my mood is sky high negative. i can't deal with this anymre. all of a sudden i am not feeling good. i think it is anxiety.

i don't know why i feel like this; i just want to cry but can't becsue everyone is home. i am going to bed. i don't know what is going on. actually maybe it is anxiety because i felt like passing out today.

I went to my GP to have my mirena IUD taken out as I had had enough. But he couldn't find the string, so he sent me for a ultrasound. Had that and the guy said i had two fibroids and a cyst on my ovary. but he couldn't find the string either, so had to have an xray to find the metal piece. they didn't tell me anything. but while waiting i was so anxious i almost passed out.

so now i have to wait for tomorrow when my GP will call me at work and let me know what will happen now. hopefully he can take the mirena out. i don't know.

my body is reacting to my anxiety - i feel so shaky, i need to stop. no point telling anyone at home becasue (a) they won't believe me and (b) they prob wouldn't care.

sorry, i had to tell someone. i feel so alone 😞

Re: not feeling good

Omg @Shaz51 you poor thing

I think I'll just go home tomorrow. Once I see my psych I'll go. There's no point stsying.
I have the week off work and make an appt to see my GP.

I don't want to be here anymore. Which is strange because normally I want to stsy as long as possible.

Re: not feeling good

it could be the changes they made there due to the coved situation @BlueBay

Have a think if you need. Maybe giving yourself a few more days would be best. But it's your call my friend.

Re: not feeling good

Hi @BlueBay

Life's tough - I can hear you - and you have had all these tests and you have high cholesterol. Darn - but you have a choice - you can take medication or watch what you eat - and I know neither is welcome. What else can you do though -

I have the feeling as if you are in a maze and keep confronting a wall and can't find your way out. It must be hard - it's no fun at home in the Crowded House with the lockdown and level four only half way through - and the predictions of not getting back to normal life for months or longer is - darn - depressing.

Day by day is okay for me but when I hear that we might be curtailed at Christmas Time I do feel snared - it will get everyone somewhere - it's is a tough time and at least I am alone which must be easier than being in a houseful

So - my suggestion is to stay where you are for the time being where it is at least peaceful. I know you are unhappy - and I feel for you wishing there was something I could do or even say - whatever could help you when life is just hard for you

But I sincerely believe you are feeling better than you were a couple of years ago. I do remember asking you - a long time ago - what small things you would change to help yourself feel a little less unhappy - sometimes -

There's your grand-daughter - and your music and colouring in. You can take a walk along the beach while you still live there - spring is coming and I do know - the weather has been really bad over the weekend

I am thinking of you -

Dec

Re: not feeling good

Hi @Owlunar

I'm in bed already. I'm freezing cold and feel crap.
I spoke to my mum this mirning. She actually called me!!! And we spoke about littke A snd my D for quite a while. It was a nice long conversation.
Littke A rang me before. She loves showing me what she's done. My D helped her do art and craft and they made a magic mirror.
She has a littke slide inside and she's decided to put nonna in the slide (my D mobile phone) and she laughs because I'm going down the slide. So funny.

haven't seen my physician or psych yet.
I spoke to unit manager this mirning about not taking cholesterol tab. She said if I don't want to Thsts my body my choice.
so I told her I refuse to take it. I am going to really watch my food and exercise more. Then get tested again in 6 months by my own GP. I was proud that I made the decision to not take them.
this lockdown seems to be forever. Can't do much but I hope we don't wear masks in summer. And I hope we can go swimming.
I'm glad you're doing ok.
Think I'll go I need to warm up. Take care Dec. xxx

Re: not feeling good

Hey @BlueBay
Nice to hear you 🙂

I sound like a broken record - but I always love hearing you talk about A. I notice how warm you sound when you talk about her and I believe this is giving you newfound optimism.

Good on you my friend 🙂

Re: not feeling good

I'm glad the stories of little A makes you smile @MDT

tonight they called at dinner time and I asked Ayla if she could blow me a kiss. Her reply "no sorry nonna I can't right now I'm busy"!!! Lol

I can't explain the love I have for her. It's really hard to describe.
but it's amazing beautiful extraordinary

the closeness we have is wonderful magic and so so loving

snd like Ayla says to me - "nonna I love you so much. We're best friends forever"

you can't get better than thst ❤️

I remember Hams thst you're close to your grandparents. It's such a special relationship to have.
