Re: not coping

Hey lil Sis @outlander. Sorry I'm just on way to have a shower, and do my dressings. Then off to the op shop.

Your Dr is there for you. You're not an inconvenience. Please make an appointment to see them. Perhaps they won't do anything but at least they will make some notes. Please consider it outlander. I continue to worry about you constantly, even though I'm not here much. ❤️❤️❤️

Re: not coping

I'll echo @Sans911 on this one, @outlander .

You are not a burden. Your GP is there to help you, and you are definitely deserving of help. And we are here to support you to remember that

Hello @outlander

A cake sounds lovely! What is the occasion, a birthday?

I'm ok, not great but ok. Heads all over the place today. Think I'm sleep deprived so aways makes for a harder day. I'll watch the Bachelorette tonight (I know it's rubbish) and then an early night I Think.

Re: not coping

Mmm that's tough @outlander, especially if you're stuck for options. I hope you're able to find something better for you.

Re: not coping

You are a lovely sister @outlander

This is my third attempt to reply. My internet keeps dropping out 😞

I am just feeling sorry for myself that's all. My boy has taken a big leap backwards, my relationship is going down the toilet after the last couple of years with my boys health and the tribulations that go with it. And I have nothing to look forward to as we have absolutely no planned for the short/long future. We can't make plans because we don't know from one day to the next what my boy will be up to. I really don't feel like I should complain as there are friends here with so much more to contend with.

Re: not coping

It is tough @Jynx
None of the gps in my clinic are very good tbh. The trouble is if i change clinics all together then i also loose the support of my nurse so its abit hard to know what to do. There arent to many good gps in my area though unless you pay for them.

Re: not coping

Your not complaining @Anastasia and its not a competition here whose issues are more or less. If its affecting you then its important.

I wonder if you might consider 2 or 3 days respite for your boy? Then you and partner could maybe plan to spend a night in a nice hotel and/or go out for dinner or something that you both like to do.

Re: not coping

Hang in there @outlander

I know it is tough getting a good doctor and MH stigma certainly can get in the way of dealing with physical issues.

Your cake sounds delish!
