What has been your highlight today, no matter how big or small? Come share 🫶

@Till23 Hello lovely how are you? Are you having a good Monday?

The blueberry harvest sounds very yummy. I love how the magpies are making friends with you. It’s lovely to have them come say hello!

I have a support worker from NDIS 9 hours a week. It’s not much. All my psychosocial supports were cut off.

I said to my doctor I couldn’t drop more medicine as the drip last week has made my symptoms worse and I’m struggling and will go into full crisis with anymore drop right now. They agreed but we’re not particularly happy about it.

Yes the forums are a place I feel included and can be myself. I know I’ve been unwell but everyone is empathetic here. I appreciate it a lot.

@Cuddlebear The painter has misunderstood my request and has started ceilings in kitchen (I asked him NOT to start there). I’m starving as I had breakfast at 4am. Ate dim sim and spring roll just before he got here, but still ravenous. Want lunch now! Oh well have a smoke instead and light some more incense.

Also body is malfunctioning cause I only slept 4 hours. Need to pee for the hundredth time.

He has a mask on. Strong smell doors open including fly screen. B… tradies. Going to put mask on too I think.

Thanks @AlwaysMyself !! Yess keen to check out hydro I think and yes if it doesn’t cost the world lol!! I am wondering if my girl will like it or not though she likes the pool and loves a swim but in a small crate size area, not sure she would!! I am should if I can put toys in there she might be more keen though 😂😂

I’ll keep you posted!

Oh cool you did see frogs!! Sounds like you really had an amazing time look forward to pics!! How was your weekend? 😀

@GezzaP Hello how are you? Oh no the smell of paint is awful and it’s not good they did not listen to you asking them not to start in the kitchen.

Were you able to get a feed? Is the painting all done now? I can understand feeling very tired as you woke up at 4am 😞 I hope you’re able to get some sleep tonight.

@Cuddlebear I woke up at 12.30. I had breakfast at 4am. I had 4 hours sleep only. Going to bed shortly. Really tired. I managed to get lunch luckily I only had to zap it was lettovers. Going to bed early suits me best.

Hi @Cuddlebear how was your day today. What is the weather doing there? I hope the rain has eased - actually if you could send some my way, that would be appreciated.

Yes I should be able to get another handful of blueberries off the bush, if the birds don't beat me to it. I have to say I haven't seen the noisy minors for a while who are the main blueberry thieves.

Oh yes, 9 hrs a week sounds like practically nothing for support.

It's interesting that your doctor is reticent to change your tapering schedule. Previously there was much less understanding of antidepressant weaning adverse effects and so weaning was often brutally quick. However, recently there has been a much greater understanding and acceptance of these effects and the need for personalised and slow tapering.

This is a MH community forum Cuddlebear, so pretty much everyone is unwell or has formerly been unwell, or is caring for someone who is unwell, so there are lots of people at all different stages of their recovery journeys which are not linear. I think everyone here understands that. So it is a good place to talk about being unwell, there is a wealth of knowledge on here.

How is Wilbur going? How old is he?

I went to the vestibular physio for my vertigo first thing this morning, I felt quite ok afterwards and got a few things done at home and then I went off to table tennis for a couple of hours. I was quite tired after that and haven't managed to tick much off my list after getting home.

Tomorrow it's up very early to volunteer at breakfast shift at the soup kitchen type place I volunteer at.

@Chasingsunsets Hi dear life is going good for me at the moment. i'm sleeping better and getting a lot calmer in my head. i do make sure i lay low a bit to help the process along. i even made a 6 1/2 first sleep this week, a first in many years i reckon, and without any extra sleeping aids.

@Till23 @GezzaP @Cuddlebear @heartathome @Appleblossom @ENKELI @Bunniekins
