@tyme I needed something tonight while I work my way through my moods and emotions. This is working to a certain degree.

@MissGremlin I've coloured in angry tonight, frustrated, in tears...

Thank you for sitting with me through the fluctuations and mood changes.

I'm going to curl up in bed. Thinking of you and wishing us both a better day tomorrow.

Oh sweet @NightFury, I'm sorry things are so heavy for you.

Always happy to be here with you ❤️.

I hope you get a good night's sleep. Sending you gentle hugs ♥️

you finished the stitch already!? omg so good!! i love that puzzle image of the stitch with doll hehe @MissGremlin one of my local stores is selling a bunch of stitch themed plushies and items, including that lil doll. if only the items were free 😅

and hi @NightFury! how are you both going?

Hello @rav3n it was an easy puzzle and I love the picture. If only things were free, although if they were i don't think I'd be able to move in my house 😂.

I had a really rough night and I'm feeling very emotional today.

How are you going?

Morning @rav3n

How are you?

I had a decent night's sleep. I woke at 4.30/4.45 and didn't manage to go back to sleep.

I'm at the supermarket trying to stock the cupboards. I'm having some issues with eating. I think it might be the medication. I'm normally an eat too much kind of person, but now I swing the other way and either don't feel hungry or don't want to eat. I've ordered in a YouFoodz pack for main meals, and they're small meals so they suit my apetite at the moment, but I'm buying snacks and things that will hopefully entice me to eat something else. I noticed this morning that my clothes are swimming on me and while it isn't necessarily a bad thing, it is playing on my mind a little.

I've done some tough things this morning. I've done a self-test that my GP's been hassling me for, and I've been putting off. I dropped that in. Went to the chemist and shouted myself a coffee at Banjo's as a reward. I'm almost done at the supermarket, then I'll head home and get ready for my telephone appointment with my counsellor at 1.10 pm.

After that, I'll decide if I go to the in person GROW mental health support group tonight...or if I'll chicken out and stay home.

@MissGremlin

@MissGremlin i'm so sorry to hear how rough it's been, and i just saw your other post about the glitches and support button causing a lot of frustration - absolutely hear you, and it's totally okay if you feel like taking a step back. wish i could snap my fingers and fix all the glitches, i do get that it's extra hard to deal with when you've already got a lot going on.

i'm actually about to make myself a cuppa, so if you're feeling up to it - pls come join me! but if not, i understand too. remember to be kind to yourself, you deserve extra kindness 💗

@NightFury hmm the medications could very well be a potential reason for those appetite changes! good pick up, and sounds like you're working hard to take care of your appetite/diet too. hopefully those snacks help out!!

wow you've gotten so much done this morning! and good on you for handing in the self-test, that must've taken up a lot of energy to get done - coffee is a nice treat too! is Banjo's good? i don't think i've heard of them before.

have you done the GROW support groups before?

@rav3n food and my diet has always been something I struggle with, so I'm super conscious of it. I've been at both ends of the spectrum, and don't wish to revisit either.

Banjo's is okay. Not the best, not the worst. It's a bakery. One of those bakery chains.

And no, no I haven't been before. I haven't been to anything like that before @AuntGlow recommended them. I rang them earlier in the week and they have a meet up tonight.

@rav3n i just had a shower to try to see if it would help but other than making me feel giddy it hasn't done anything.

Have you had that cuppa yet?
