HOME

Well I'm finally home (again).
4 hospital stays in 91 days. Wow. No wonder it feels so strange to be in my own house again. Adjusting will take time. Cooking for myself will take time.
My house is in the same condition in which I left it. A pigsty. So no one room has warmth and charm to lift my mood. Will have to slowly start cleaning up - one room at a time.
I did go and watch my son play soccer in the finals. I'd been so sick this year - thst it was the first game I had been to all year. His team lost. But they play again next week. So still stand a chance of playing the grand final.
My son is still living with my mum. Has been since the end of April. Hopefully he will see how much I've improved on my new anti depressants and anti anxiety meds. Then he may choose to come home soon.
Was up and doing the washing early this morning. But now reading a book in bed.
Am very bored. But have AA Meeting tomorrow night.
And I have my WorkCover IME (independent Medical Examination) - psych interview with a tough psychiatric on the 30th of this month. Think it could be on Wednesday. And then I have my much waited for Psychologist appointment. Can't see him when I'm in hospital (too far away).
So that's it for now. A new thread for a new beginning.

Re: HOME

Glad to hear you are taking Easter weekend off @Shaz51 .

Think there's going to be a lot of photos taken this Easter. And it might help Mr shaz lift his mood.

Hey @utopia Been thinking about you a lot and wondering how you are going. I read somewhere that you had a bad back (think I got that right) - how is it feeling? Hope it is improving and you are not in too much pain. Miss seeing you around the forum Hon but think of you often

Re: HOME

Hi @Zoe7 . Been missing you too.

I'm still feeling a little lost and sorry for myself. But hopefully over time the Depression will improve.

Yes. Tomorrow will be 3 weeks since I woke up with a bad back. Pinched a nerve. So back hip and pelvis all affected. Had 2 physio sessions, so back not locking in place anymore. Just constant ache that gets worse if I sit or stand for more than a few moments. Next physio appointment is next Friday.

How is Toby and Cat? Abbey and dog are well.

How is school? Do you have all the students wrapped around your fingers yet?

I hope you have time to still do your art. It seems to bring you a lot of joy.

Hoping you are well and stay well.

Love , your friend, Cocky Utopia
