Hi @Ayesha, almost midnight here. Will look out for you in the morning too. Hope you are sleeping as I write this and feel a bit better when you wake. Hugs, Maz

@Ayesha, I think you will have seen your GP by now and I really hope it's been helpful. I'm not well today but will keep popping in from time to time to say I am still here, sitting with you in the final countdown to your admission tomorrow. Feel free to write longer posts here if you wish and I will do my best to respond and try to help if I can. I also understand if your state of being or comfort levels prevent you from saying more. Hugs, Maz

@Ayesha, being in the safety and comfort of your own room, and taking your prn meds, are good things you have done to look after yourself. To be honest with you I have been in my flat most of the day in my nightie with the blinds drawn. It's keeping me safe and helping me to heal to be nestled in my space too. Try to find distractions from your anxieties and keep posting. Hugs again. Maz

@Ayesha, letting yourself fall into sleep may be the best thing for you now. Just as long as you are confident you are safe to do this. If not, ring the Acute Care Team number you have on your phone, or 000. I'll come back in here in the morning too to see if you need any more assistance before going to hospital. Maz
