Recovering from a psychotic episode at the moment.

much appreciated @AuntGlow @DownMoreThanUp @Dimity my friend gave me lemons (I do have a weird synchronicity with my forum life and in person life) and I bought plants for the plant stand at the fete. I forgot to put garlic in soup even though I went to shop for it. I might cancel tomorrow morning and turn inward. I can tell that friend I have a funeral, though I was going to try and squeeze everything in. Priorities.

🍎

Gentle Hugs @Bunniekins thank you

💙💙💙

Take care @Appleblossom . Hope you sleep well tonight, and wake well rested and refreshed.

@Appleblossom hey hunny hope your are sleeping the sleep of the just. love you Apple take care. bun bun xx

@DownMoreThanUp Hope you are still doing well

🙏

appreciate you letting down your mask and sharing with us @Appleblossom 💙

i feel you with the people pleasing as well - although there are times i can avoid it, there other times where it's hard not to care. i do hope you're able to be gentle with yourself. you're doing your best and that counts for a lot✨

i also hope the funeral attendance goes smoothly today.

I think making time for you is more than okay right now, in fact, it's necessary. @Appleblossom

Is the funeral today? 💛

Yes, @AuntGlow I was vulnerable at the beginning, but have deep respect for the ritual healing possible in funerals. I had a psychologist zoom just after it and a friend was there. My son was sensitive about it. So I am grateful for my inner circle.

I really like that perspective @Appleblossom, and I am so happy for you have support around you right now. Are you doing anything to nurture yourself today? 💛

@Appleblossom Psychosis wise not too badly. A lot less voices than been and hardly any hallucinations, though still some anxiety at the beginning of the week, it is not bad now. Struggling with nausea and feeling drained this morning though.

Took lots of stuff for the nausea, as well as put a nicotine patch to increased my energy levels. Hopefully this will help make me feel a little better later on the day.

i hope you are also doing okay? i hope you had no bad after effects from the funeral? Good to see that you understand the value of funerals. We have learned to understand the importance of closer even more so than we did already, through our Down Syndrome daughter, and how much it helps her to finalising her relationship with those who she knew well but have died burying them.
