Re: not coping

I can't wait to get home. To my own bed!!

It has affected my short term memory a little but not much at all. I am scared that it hasn't worked yet. I tell people I feel better because I don't want to let anyone down.

@Sans911 @outlander

Anyway,enough about me.

Re: not coping

im glad it hasn't affected you to much @Snowie I hope that it will be helpful in the long run as well. I think we all know that feeling of not wanting to let anyone down. @Sans911 and I just had a deeper chat about that too. I wish I could find that magic wand that would help us all!

Re: not coping

Thanks @Sans911 @outlander @Snowie 💕💕💕 its nice of you all to talk to me. I think lots wont. 💔

I'm sorry Sans ... I havent spoken to anyone since early Sat morning. Certainly not just you. I was off line for 4-5 days, only logging back on yesterday. Now just trying to find a safe place that I can be. Somewhere that my presence will not cause discomfort to anyone else. This may be one of only a few threads that I might be able to participate in. But Im still not sure. I wont be posting much for a while I think. But I hope to be around, and following along. Im sorry I cannot do more than that for now. Im actually taking a big risk by posting this. Please bear with me. And yes, there is a lot happening offline too. Not coping with a lot of it. One of many reasons I need to still be here with my forum family. Even if its in a reduced capacity. Anything is better than nothing.

Re: not coping

You don't have to pretend here @Snowie. I guess you might see a difference (or not) when you are back in your usual environment and routine. Hospital tends to be more of a false, sheltered environment.

I've not asked you at all about whether you think it's worked. You will tell me or us here. I didn't want to add to everyone else or your own questions.

Re: not coping

No need to apologise or justify yourself to me @Former-Member. I saw a post of yours from last week. I was concerned about how quiet you had been.

Do what you need to do for you sweetheart. And whatever level of comfort makes you feel safe and secure.

Right now I can only manage a few threads as well. I actually did a massive clean up of my subscriptions before I came back online. I hadn't realised how much I was subscribed to.
