Re: not coping

hello

@outlander

and friends

What does outlander like doing? not what does Outlander have to do?

Be kind and gentle to yourself...as you are to others...

allow yourself to cry or punch a pillow..have days of doing nothing except eating...resting ..

one day at a time...then at end of week got through 1 week

end of next week...got through 2 weeks or your words

focus on time that has passed...

helped me during my rehabilitation....different for everyone I do realise..

you are already in the healing remember ..

Re: not coping

thank you @Sophia1 im really trying my best to cope with it all. i made up payment plan charts yesterday to help me see bill progresses. between pop and i we have a few bills that once paid off it wont be ongoing anymore so im looking forward to having those paid off soon.

i do enjoy my studies and playing around with the horses (not work stuff like just being able to borrow a horse with no commitment and just go for a ride or something with it) and i still crochet too. i just seem to loose alot of motivation so easily especially lately. its raining the next few days though so i will be resting alot more. have some stronger pain meds so i think ill use them for a few days too

Re: not coping

abit bored @Snowie its raining here for the next few days which we definetly need but not much to do. at least with the sun i could do something outside if my foot allowed. ive finished making up my bill charts and halfway through an assignment but dont really want to do much more atm. feeling quite unmotivated and tired. i really should be making my sisters blanket up, shes been patient, its just taking me so long so i might put a movie on and try and get more done tonight and today while i dont have much to do

Re: not coping

A movie and the blanket sound like a good idea hon @outlander

Sometimes it is hard to find the motivation to do things, especially when the weather isn't any good.

Somedays we just need to do the basic's. Don't be too hard on yourself sweetie. You are doing the best you can.

I have done some washing (surprise, surprise!!) Now just having a cuppa and watching some tv.

Re: not coping

yeah just basics seems like the normal thing atm @Snowie if i had the energy i would love to be having a clearout but im not motivated enough.

wow a load of washing who wouldve guess that lol @Snowie i still say chuck kids in the machine instead, be so much easier!

i think ill make a cuppa and join you

Re: not coping

hello @cloudcore how are you? nice to see you floating around

In response to: Re: not coping

Re: not coping

Hehe @outlander If I do a load of washing a day then I seem to keep on top of it. But throwing them in the machine still sounds like a good idea!!

I just had a call from my Psych's office. Because of lockdown my appointment on Thursday is now via telehealth 😥 I hate them via telehealth. I can never get my thoughts out properly.

I know I should be grateful that I at least have a pysch when other have it much worse then me, but it is still hard to deal with. Ugggh rant over.
