Anyone feel like chatting?

Hi @outlander@Former-Member

I am really glad you two are chatting - you are in similar situations and good you are able to support each other - you understand the position of the other one very well

And Outlander - I can't find your post about all the homework you are doing for your psyche - 10 tables and more to go - I find that rather a lot. Is this helpful for you? Maybe it is - I had a psychologist a long time ago who wanted me to write about how I was feeling between every session and that gave him and idea of how I was - but 10 tables - it makes me wonder what that could be

I hope both of you are okay this morning

Hi @TAB@Former-Member@Former-Member@Former-Member@outlander

I hope today is better than yesterday too

Ahhhhhhhhhh - I went to sleep watching TV last night - this was not good - I missed a Star Trek TNG movie as well as the one I was watching - awww - I hate that - I feel really wonky after I do that

But today I do some cooking - I got the stuff to make cookies - this is a great idea - make them today

I have everyone else has the ingredients to make today better than yesterday and that doens't have to be messing up the kitchen to make cookies - it can be anything

Please don't worry about replies @Former-Member

Write when you can and if you can - I could never write here if I felt the need to answer everything - I am sure I let a lot pass without maybe even seeing it - there is a lot happening all the time and of course we miss things if we leave the forum for a few hours

Don't worry - take your time

Yes @Owlunar very similar in deed, and its apity the world is like this really.

Ahh yes the tables. Every time I am triggered my psychologist would like me to fill in a table. It includes the date, what the trigger was, a rating out of 10 as to how it affected me, how my brain responded- e.g overwhelming thoughts, how my heart reacted e.g heavy, fast. How my body reacted e.g numb, shaking, nausea etc, what the emotional reponse was e.g, depressive, anxious, angry, upset,flustered etc. what the coping strategy is that I used or few that I used and then rate how I feel after that so if I was a 10- did it drop down to 9, 8 etc.

oh wow I was only up to 10 then, I am now over 50! and thats since monday and I have to keep going until my pscyh appointment on monday arfternoon so still today and tomorrow to go.

Yesterday however I ended up talking to @Former-Member who I am very thankful for. I was in a heap of trouble and i was helped right through until i fell asleep
