Thankyou @Former-Member

it's so hard to challenge my inner negative thoughts. They're strong and I can't help but get caught up in the circle of negativity.

Im trying to focus on something positive at work. On 1 1/2 hrs to go before I go home.

Not feeling good today @outlander@Former-Member@Shaz51@Faith-and-Hope @utopia

been feeling light headed and my back is playing up agsin. I feel so exhausted. I'm going to talk to my gp on Thursday and see if I need another iton infusion. I wish I could just go to bed right now snd curl up in a ball. Last night was terrible. I went to bed and couldn't stop sobbing. I was holding my pillow so tight. And then I collapsed in a heap from exhaustion. Can't keep going like this.

Hearing you @BlueBay 💙

can anyone help me with some advice pls. i don't know which way to go. @Faith-and-Hope@outlander@Former-Member@Shaz51@utopia @Zoe7

I have just recently used up all my 10 Medicare mental health visits to my psychologist. So today i called my private health fund and i have extras but psychology is not under the extras i have. to get psychology i need to up my fund and pay another $60 a month more than what i currently pay. we can't afford this increase so i don't know what to do. if i did go with the extra i would get back $68 from the fee so i would out of pocket $90.

Or do i spread out my psychoology visits to every 3 weeks and pay the full amount and then next january start again with the medicare rebate.

it's ridiculous that we only get 10 subsidised rebate for mental health sessions.

seeing a psychologist and then a psychiatrist in private practice in so expensive. thank god i only see my psych every 3-6 months but i have reached the threshold so i can claim most of it back with him.

seeing my psychologist every 3-4 weeks seems too long to wait in between, i don't know.

bit confused as to what to do.

any help, ideas, suggestions would be great.

thanks

@Twinklelight

this is my post. i know you're not in a good frame of mind today and not coping. i'm not saying you have to read this. it was only because i had started to write stuff on the 'good morning' post and didn't want to keep going on there with my crap.

i hope you're okay this afternoon. hope to chat with you again soon

Talk to your GP about whether you are eligible to access a further 5 or 6 sessions (I can't remember whether it is 5 or 6) and ask about a Chronic Disease Management Plan - with your asthma, back pain and MI you may be eligible for another 5 medicare funded sessions under this plan. @BlueBay

Thank you @Zoe7 i will definitely talk to my GP on thursday. see if he can help in any way. didn't think of asking him.
