I thought I'd start a discussion where we can check in with members and use this space to keep in contact. It's a space to be able to say how you really feel and it's a space for the good, the bad and the ugly moments in our lives.

That’s what I need help with now too @CheerBear 💜....here are my feelings and I don’t understand them or know what to do with them so I can do the next step forward. Thank you for pointing out what my problem really is 😘. I have an appointment with my therapist tomorrow but that won’t help this stuff. She will tell me what is the 'right thing' but I won’t get any closer to working it out which is what I need. My psych did get back to me after hours last night which was amazing, and was ok to talk for a few minutes but I was in the supermarket at the time and couldn’t talk. It did help that she wanted to help.
Just having a feel like I’ve been hit by a truck stuff. I had GP appointment yesterday which added to all my confusion and uncertainty. Not from my GP but she told me what my psych wants to do which is adding a new medication in but I’m feeling so overwhelmed with everything else that I don’t know if I can do it. It’s an ADHD medication. I also have a few physical anomalies which I don’t feel but keep getting wonky blood test results, not enough to worry but enough to have to chase up.
For someone who had no words that was a big vent. 😜 when I typed that it came out big gent 😂.
I hope there is a way for a break place again for you.

Hi @outlander , @Appleblossom , @Faith-and-Hope , @Former-Member , @CheerBear, @Sans911 👋🏻
I am thinking of you @Faith-and-Hope knowing how frazzled you must be feeling.
@CheerBear I want to share something with you. At one point this afternoon I reread your last post and it helped me to clarify what I was struggling with. I’ve just got off the help line with a way forward until I see my psych next week. Then I hope she can get the twisty bits unravelled a bit better. You were kind of right but I didn’t see it at first. It was about my values being conflicted in trying to reach a goal. It’s a little more than that but that is deep at the core of it. I feel a bit lighter for it, metaphorically speaking. I wish I could feel physically lighter too. 😜💜😘

Just a random question. Does anyone else have days where your brain can click into something’s but can’t cope with others. I feel out of control in some ways and more in control in others. Possibly not making sense. :face_with_rolling_eyes:
