Thanks @Faith-and-Hope, how's your adventure going? Is there a particular thread your putting updates? Jetlag takes about a week to settle I'm told, and I'm sure there's son Celtic wisdom to get over your post viral fatigue How's WH coping with his obcessive routines while travelling? A challenge I would think 😕 Hope this is a time yo rekindle some first love maybe.
Any good churches to visit there? Did you go this morning? Love ancient architecture and history. Churches are great for it. Hugz xox

Re: Far and Away

Will just take it day by day and try and to remember. My brain has certainly got memory fog to it.

It is hard whe our MH team do not have the answers except just putting us back into hospital. I find it affects my family a lot when I go in and puts extra pressure on them all.

You will always have my support hun @Lee82 , whenever you need/want it.

@Zoe7 You've been in my thoughts all day Zoe. 💕😔🌹🤗 I hope you are doing a little better than you were last night when you last posted. Perhaps your Lions win (just) has helped to perk you up just a little.

Re: Far and Away

@Snowie, how is it that you feel ECT has made a difference? Sounds subtle. Does it actually lift your mood or take away anxiety? Or stop flashbacks??? or something like that. You're very brave 💗💗💗

Re: Far and Away

@Former-Member I am not sure if ECT has made a difference or I am just wishing it to make a difference. I don't want to think that the last 3 weeks were for nothing so I think I am hoping for some change. I don't feel my mood lifted yet or it taken away my anxiety, but I know the effects can always still occur. As for the flashbacks, unfortunately they haven't stopped them.

Thanks EOR, but I don't feel brave

Hi @Former-Member @Snowie ......👋💕

We don't have to feel brave about doing things that are brave @Snowie, in my opinion anyway. They are still brave, because even if we are shaking in our boots, we stepped up to them anyway ..... and it helps others to find the courage to do that too ❣️

I hope the ECT does progressively make that difference for you Hon. It sounds like it might have an effect progressively, is that right ?

How are you settling in @Former-Member ? I'm sorry I haven't been around many threads in the last few weeks, but please tag me anywhere you want to - you too @Snowie .....

Hugs to both of you .... 💐💜

Re: Far and Away

I hear you @Snowie, sounds like you're just going through the motions eishing for a breakthrough, trusting the treatments, but not much hope. 3wks is a long time to be in hospital. My MH admissions always set me backwards the first week, I'm scared of even that let alone ECT. Hope you can go home soon, get back to some sense of normal to built on. And I'm hopeful cause guess what...? Spring is on the way 🌻🌷🌻🌷🌻🌷🌻
