Out of action

@Bow @Eve7 This is the only way I can respond to you. I cannot comment on any thread or read any thread. Can only read a thread when I'm logged out.

Bow I did read about getting another new SW. Just complete nonsense, does not make any sense. Yes, you can't make that 💩up. I'm sorry things aren't great at the moment.

Eve, I know things haven't been easy for you either. I hope this weekend goes a little better.

I really do wish I could offer you both support.

I'm struggling to come on here especially since I cannot chat with anyone, but especially you two. It's become very triggering. Losing this connection has been harder than I thought.

Mum hasn't been well. Had a gp out to see her. Looks like she needs a few scans now. So had to spend more time with her than normal.

I wish I could say things have improved, but I think they are just getting worse. My head is very much on a destructive path. I've had to use helplines more than I wanted.

Anyway, enough about me.

Unless things change than I won't even be able to respond to this thread.

Please know I am thinking of you both. Very much missing our chats and connections.

Re: Out of action

Urgh @Snowie it’s making me angry. I do not understand why they didn’t test this better before making it live. Can they not switch it back while they do more work on it??? Reading stuff on here that’s been really triggering too.

I really miss connecting and chatting with you and eve. Was in tears this arvo, needing to connect but couldn’t.

im sorry that things have been so rough. And that your mum isn’t well.

I spoke with my old old SW- the one who is now team leader. She acknowledged that I haven’t connected with my current SW and said that she has been working hard advocating for me to have a particular SW who she believes will be a really good fit for me. I don’t really know how much I can trust her … she said she picked my current one for a reason. She said that I need a SW that works more like she did and my old one. I said yes. I should know who that person is the beginning of the week…. It would be nice to know who it is and be able to meet them before I go away of Wednesday but I doubt that will happen. She also said that even though she is moving offices, I have her number and can still always call her… and my old SW will still be around. So yes, reassuring, but still lots of uncertainty.

leaving a heap of love and hugs
