Curling up on the lounge after a stressful morning sounds like a great plan @MissGremlin

I had a rough night and had to tap out of the forums. I had some pretty big feelings and some SH come up. I also went through a moment of panic when I woke in the dark and thought I heard noises outside.

I woke up okay. A little headachey, but I'm up and about. I have a job interview at 10.30 and then I'm off to work.

@NightFury sorry to hear it was a rough night for you sweet. I hear you with those big feelings and the SH coming up, that's been a pretty big thing for me recently too (I'm safe). I can understand the panic when you thought you heard noises outside but you got through it so well done ❤️.

I hope the interview goes well for you sweet, I'll be thinking of you. You've got this and no matter the outcome we are always here for you ❤️.

I rang my doctor's earlier to tell them about the side effects of this medication that I'm on so I'm hoping to hear back at some stage today. It's just taking so much out of me when I was already struggling.

I'm safe too @MissGremlin

I haven't had urges like that in a while, so it was a lot to deal with. The little bit of sleep I got helped as a reset.

The interview is done. It sounds like an amazing opportunity. I'll just have to wait and see how it goes. I'm heading in to work now. But I think I've earned myself a coffee and a treat first.

I'm glad you contacted your doctors about the side effects of your medication. I hope that they can help you with either some tips on adjusting, with managing them, or changing medication. I'm proud of you for communicating that and advocating for your needs.

@NightFury it can be alot to deal with especially if it's been a while. Glad the sleep helped to reset.

Well done for getting through the interview and I have my fingers crossed for to sweet. You definitely deserve s coffee and a treat ☺️.

My doctors rang and said to stop the medication and that we'll catch up at my next appointment on Monday. Just hoping stopping it doesn't cause too many issues.

I've picked up another job interview for next week @MissGremlin so, it seems to be heading in a positive direction.

I'm glad your doc is onto it. If you're about later, would love to catch up and have cuppa?

I think I need connection to community at the moment. Only if you're up for it though?

@NightFury oh that's awesome that you have another job interview next week.

I'd absolutely love to catch up later and have a cuppa with you ☺️.

I'm the same and need connection with the community, just sometimes I feel like I'm a bit of a burden so I don't post.

I can relate to that feeling @MissGremlin coz, I feel much the same at times. I feel like people will get sick and tired of me struggling and will stop wanting to communicate and interact with me. So...I withdraw and lurk like a ninja in the background.

@NightFury hehe that ninja comment is the best and i do exactly the same.

I completely understand, but I never get sick and tired of chatting to you whether it be about good times or the struggles. I'm here for them all and let's face it, life gets pretty damn tough at times. Hugs my beautiful friend you're amazing ❤️.

Thank you for saying so @MissGremlin and while I understand the feeling, I don't think you're a burden at all. I'm here for both the good times and the bad as well.

Hello over there.

How are you holding up? @MissGremlin
