Re: not coping

Nothing indoor crafty, just "hardscaping" but giving that a rest for a few days and mainly playing piano. Weather is bad here and time for another activity. Good to vary it a bit.

@outlanderWas remembering your drawings of different forum members when you first joined. You are usually doing so many things ... yes the crotchet ... I did a little when I was a teen.

@Lee82 I guess you have so many visitors to look after you probably need the coffee to stay sane.

Green Tea here.

Re: not coping

Perhaps going in by yourself is best and if you need clarification with anything the doc says then bring her in. I can understand feeling uncomfortable with too many people in one room babe so you do what makes you feel safe and comfortable.

Re: not coping

Hey @Appleblossom yea coffee doesn't affect me at all. I am immune to it now...lol

plus I have 6 kids here doing my head in and I don't have any bourbon so coffee is the next best thing...😂

Re: not coping

yeah i may do that @Lee82 i always clamp down when other people are around too unless i trust them.
she isn't actually a qualified support worker so maybe that's part of it too but she is abit medically trained through her science/medical degree that's ongoing.

@Lee82

Its been a while since I had those days. Are they watching a movie and getting ready to wind down?

Re: not coping

I too struggle a lot with trust hun. It's a very difficult thing to gain. Just do what ever feels comfortable for you babe. Have her there for medical support but if you don't want her in the room that is your choice to make
