not coping

Both my pdoc and psych will do it via a call @outlander I just find it so hard to talk on the phone to them. I would much rather in person. I guess I have to be grateful for at least being able to speak to them on the phone. I need to be grateful that I at least have supports. It is just hard to see that at times.

They normally ring me the day after ect to see how I am doing. But it wasn't they normal nurse who calls so I wasn't going to tell them about my sh and si. I just said "I'm fine" and left it at that. Somedays like today I just wish I could switch off and disappear.

It is harder to talk on the phone @outlander

Yes pity our brains don't have an off switch. Would be much easier if they did.

I have been trying to use my sp but even that is working well.

Have been trying to keep busy @outlander with my hands.

I don't know, I think I might have to ring someone.

Thanks @outlander for your company and help.

Hopefully talk later.
