Wrecked @AuntGlow so tired.
@ENKELI this photo is for you

His groomer platted his tail

@AuntGlow Hello lovely how are you? I was discharged yesterday from APARC in the midst of a brutal taper from an anti depressant. I’m worried and it’s hard being home like this. I’m hoping I can use the forums as a way to have support and survive this taper.

Good afternoon @Glisten,

I hear you on feeling wrecked! What's been keeping you busy? 🫶

And welcome back @Cuddlebear. 🥰 How was your experience with APARC? I completely understand why it would feel vulnerable leaving after tapering off your antidepressant. What supports do you currently have available to you for this transition? You can absolutely use us! No question, we are here. 💛

@AuntGlow navigating a lifetime of policy-lag trauma and wondering why nature hasn’t evolved a luck algorithm for financial compensation. 🫤

And wondering where @ENKELI is?

I gave her a picture of the Terracotta horse, I saw yesterday.

It has a braided tail. Apparently it’s priceless. From China.

I told the curator “It’s no Phar Lap” 🙃

@AuntGlow How are you my friend? What’s been happening?

Unfortunately the only supports I have are calling mental health triage. PARC failed badly on discharge support despite me letting them know my needs. They had nothing to offer out in the community. 😞 I’m terrified now on doing this on my own. I’m seeing a social worker today who I’m praying has something they can offer other than just a text to see how I am.

I am well @Cuddlebear.

How are things feeling for you today?

Oh gosh... that is awful. I'm sorry, lovely. Please come and chat to all of whenever you need. Maybe knowing you can always come here will help?

I hope the social worker can offer more support, you absolutely deserve it.

Have you joined Grow groups before at all? 💛

Hello @AuntGlow , @Oaktree , @Cuddlebear , @Glisten , @ENKELI

had 2 coffees today -- wow only 2 so far

food shopping this morning

cloudy and showers here today

@Glisten is that a Terracotta Warrior horse?

It is quite the majestic animal.

@Glisten ENKELI is beating herself up at being so unmotivated yet again.

I love your comment about the horse being no Phar Lap, that's gold!

@Shaz51 ha ha I love how you say "wow only 2 so far"! I know that feeling well, I'm on to my 4th for the day but they aren't real coffees, they are the Nescafe pretend ones. Not sure if that's better or worse for me!
