Oscillation between two mind sets

Being self sufficient is important but it's also good to have people to lean on! Do you have any informal supports that might be helpful in times when you need to speak to someone? @creative_writer

That's totally fine, I think it's really good to be able to be independent @creative_writer

Is there any step you can take to becoming more open with people about what you're going through?

Oh no! Migraines are the absolute worst! What's something that helps you when you have a migraine?

I get them quite frequently too, I am so sorry you have one today! @creative_writer

I wish I had a solution for you @creative_writer . Yes, we can say to focus on what is working, but then it doesn't make the other things go away.

I’ve been on edge of tears with afternoon. I don’t know why I let it get to me. The physical pain is hard and it gets tiring when it’s a chronic thing. I’ve also finished about with my psych nurse today, if I want to continue I would need to get another referral (it’s separate from Medicare rebated sessions). The problem is, I don’t feel like I fully click with her. I wish I could see my psych more, but Medicare only gives rebate for 10 sessions. The psych sessions have out of pocket costs. The thing is, I’ve already formed that rapport with my psych but once a month therapy sessions is far from being enough. I don’t even know what to do. I can’t rejoin the guided service yet, I have to wait till July to be eligible since I accessed it last year. There are uni counsellors too, and they offer up to 6 sessions, but I don’t know how I’ll gel with them. It feels too hard to get supports @tyme

I hear your dilemma. There's a lot in what you have posted @creative_writer I hear how hard it is to keep switching.
