Nothing

Hi @CheerBear

Sounds like tomorrow is an exciting day in a way, even in pajamas. Yes, I ended up getting the meds yesterday, all okay now. Tomorrow I am meeting with a friend and we are going for a walk on the beach together. Really hope the time to yourself is refreshing.

@Former-Member, Phams is the Personal Helpers and Mentors program that is run Australia-wide via various community mental health organisations. I too have a Phams worker, who helps me get out of the flat more than I do, to engage more with the outside social world and generally develop better skills for my survival and recovery. I was assigned a Phams worker via an organisation called 'Partners in Recovery'.

@CheerBear, do you think you might go back into social work? I seem to remember reading that was your area of study previously.

@CheerBear, I think I do know what you mean, though we haven't discussed in detail your experiences (nor do we need to). But I am a child of domestic abuse over a long period, and also had a bad experience while travelling many years ago as an adult that I didn't report. I just didn't believe I had a chance of succeeding with any further action on it and so just lived with it. I only remember it occasionally now, always with some sorrow, but not overwhelming. The only work I do is the creative stuff with video. I have a terrible history of short employment and long breakdowns. I am generally not well enough mentally, emotionally or physically for the workplace. I'm okay with that though.

@CheerBear, think I got a bit heavy in that last post. Too late at night for it really. Please accept my apologies. I think it's probably time for me to head towards bed. Hope your meetings go well tomorrow and look forward to your highlight of the day at the end of it. Nightie night to you and all.
