Just checking in.

Hi @Queenie

That's no good. It's often the small, what we think are insignificant things that get to us. When can you see your doc?

@Zoe7 the soonest I can get in is February 1 to see my psychiatrist, however I can get into my GP next week so I'll do that I think.

@utopia it can take up to 2 weeks before the full effect is seen but generally I should feel better a few days after taking them.

Definitely see your GP next week @Queenie Great that you have already checked out when you can get in to see both - that sounds like a positive step forward. Well done. In the meantime talk to us

Yeah @Former-Member

I can see that bad weather on my computer - it's bad over SA - and heading this way - let's hope it wears out first

Even if I lose power for a few minutes I get nervous - esp if the weather is warm - I don't mind if the icecream melts but more than that - oh no - that's important food

But our distractions - we cannot even read easily with a torch - and I still have the landline as well as my mobile but no gas to cook with -

I wish you the best with that storm and the black out - SA has had some bad storms this year - let's hope this is nearly over

Aw - for you - it's not just entertainment - it's destractions

This is not good at all

Hi @Former-Member

That is really something - to be involved in such a project - I have just been an amateur but a pretty serious amateur even so

On clear nights atm Venus is very high a brilliant - setting very late - and in the next week weeks Mars and Venus will be close together. I went outside to see what I could see but it is like a furnace out there tonight - at 10.20pm - but I could see Orion and Jupiter rises in the early hours

I watched the first moon landing in 1969 - it was a freezing cold day and I thought they'd never get around to getting out of the LEM and walking on the moon but I did see it

Little Green Men - or as Fox Mulder would say - Little Grey Men - I was so into The X Files back in the 90s - I watched every episode and my sil had some tapes of their movies - but earlier this year I watched re-runs and the 6 new episodes and I groaned - what was I about? - Scully is not his mother.

Anyway - they were fantastic back then - I actually took a semestre of Science Fiction at 2nd year - I was wrapped -

Science or science fiction - I am really into both of them

Great news @Kurra Sending you lots of love & hugs

Hi @utopia

It's not a good night for star-gazing at all - it is really hot and unpleasant outside tonight - really bad

It's after 10.30pm and I have the A/C and wow - am I glad I have it - it's going to be a bad night -

But I might be able to find some pics that are not HTM files - and people did not like me trying to copy the ones I tried to get - I got a message on my screen about them - but I can draw them if I feel the patience building up - I am not really good at doing anything with computer drawings

Still - I will see what I can find - it is a beautiful constellation - far bigger than just a saucepan as I was first taught - but I liked the way you described it also

Hi @Queenie

That is not good - hallucinations are a worry - could be a big problem

I hope you can see your doctor tomorrow seeing as it's not a public holiday but then - we are between Christmas and New Year - and that can be a problem

I hope you can get yourself to the ED if they continue - I know I sound alarmist but I don't really know you at all and if these are something that happens - it can happen with some medications - I know that

Just hope I am over-reacting - but it's a good idea to have it checked out

Dec

I just read your post again - anti-psychotic medication - yes - I think if that was me I would be getting that checked
