Fancy a cuppa , Connect now 2

Nice one @Abbz77 😊. Whats on for your Tuesday?

Morning @Shaz51 . Have had a reasonably productive morning but ran out of puff on sorting my manic financial disaster out. Did over an hour so getting there. Trust you are well.

Morning @GezzaP, that’s good to hear about your productive day! I love those days.

bouncing off the forum now but wanted to duck in and say a quick hello to ya! Hope the rest of you day goes well 😊

Thanks @Chasingsunsets .I’m feeling a bit better about myself, but still anxious about my stuff ups. No way can I drive atm and it’s too warm for me to go out now anyway. Psychiatrist calling today. Trust you are well.

I hope your appt @GezzaP goes well. Hope to talk later my friend 😊

Hi @DownMoreThanUp so lovely to see you around the forum today my friend!! Sorry I have not got to the other forum posts re replies yet but always thinking of you and loveee everything you post- just want a good amount of time to be able to get back to everyone - re so I can be thoughtful in my replies. I’m off now but hope to see you on later. 🙏

@Chasingsunsets Thanks for the encouragement. i have been up a lot of the night in pain with a kidney stone. Did catch some more sleep although i do not think the stone has passed yet. However the pain is only light, and very much lower down my back than before. Such are good signs.

i'm glad you get something out of the things i share. My only wish in life is to share The One who got me out of my pit and placed me on level ground despite the hardships i'm facing. Yet it is hard to share someone other hurting ones do not know. Yet it are those who hurt bad life who will benefit most catching up with the one i come to love more than my life.

Still struggling with a lot of nausea. This is what wakes me up the most by far. It can be so severe that i faint from feeling so sick with the sweat literally dripping of my brow. i have a hospital consolation in February, going to my GP two months ago. After that still the procedure. i really wonder how long i have to be sick as a dog before i even get diagnosed rightly, let alone find something to treat it with that does not give me kidney stones ever three or four weeks. Sadly our health is not a priority for those who are on Medicare. (Surely this infamous tax is simply a make all government compliant doctors and big pharma rich quickly scheme. (sarcasm mine.))

Just finished my cuppa so might go and make myself a new one.😀

coffee on the brewOur garden welcoming this morningOur chicken loudly telling us about the eggs they're providing us with.

Good morning @Shaz51 @Chasingsunsets @GezzaP @DownMoreThanUp @Abbz77 and all who I'm sharing a cuppa with

@DownMoreThanUp I'm sorry to hear that you're still not feeling well. It would be very frustrating to still be waiting on a diagnosis, but I hope that one comes soon.

I also just wanted to say how gorgeous your garden is. One day I dream to have one half as nice as yours, along with the chickens and some ducks to give us fresh eggs.

I abstained from coffee yesterday because my anxiety has been flaring up a bit and I know that caffeine is no good when I'm feeling anxious, but to make up for it today I might make myself coffee #2 😋☕

Hello @Ru-bee , @DownMoreThanUp , @Chasingsunsets. @GezzaP , @Abbz77 , @Adge , @MissGremlin , @heartathome , @Eve7

Watching YouTube videos here of a garden rescue show 😊

@Ru-bee Good hearing from you. Yes coffee can aid triggering anxiety as well as nausea. i found that a can of beer can really settle low level anxiety as well as nausea, and quickly so, for many hours. (two beers can cover a full afternoon without sweat and is all i ever use to treat my anxiety.) The danger of course being drinking too much of the stuff. However so far this has not been an issue for i only do this when i'm in an anxious mood and struggle to cope, never otherwise. (Of course i love a few beers for relaxation and entertainment, but i do not consider such a drink a medication.)

i learned to do this in 2018-2019 when without realising why i struggled with anxiety for 6 or maybe even more months every day, all day long. In The end it turned out to be the 5HTP i had been taking for a few years without any break and this had effected me very badly. Within a few days of stopping that supplement my struggle with the 24/7 anxiety finally left. The good part was that in my paranoid alter i had now full integrated with my loving (past religious) alter, and my often scary life became so very much more bearable after that.

i hope you have a lovely cuppa, even as i'm drinking mine.

I hope you have a blessed day.
