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.

Thank you @Shaz51 . Hugs are always accepted here.

Had a big sleep last night. Went to bed 5 hours early. Slept for 14 hours.

Another 2 hour nap this afternoon.

Am exhausted.

Allergies playing up. Think I've caught the cold my son and his girlfriend has. Bugger.

My son won his soccer Grand Final yesterday. 2nd year in a row. Beat the same team both years. Brilliant.

Think I might take my meds and go to bed again early tonight.

Hope y9u and Mr shaz are well. Hope the weather is beautiful in your part of Australia.

That sucks about the cold @utopia It does sound like you needed the sleep though and hopefully that helps you recover from it quicker.

Great news about your son's win - did the team do something to celebrate?

Hi @utopia been reading some of the latest posts. I’m sorry you’re not feeling well with a cold and allergies. So nice to read your son did his deb with his girlfriend. So nice. He’s growing up so much. And to see your boy grow into a young man is so nice. Sounds like he’s doing really well at school and knows what he wants to do once he leaves year 12. So good to hear.

Hope you can get a good night sleep

take care @utopia ❤️❤️

Sorry to hear me shaz51 is not feeling well. Hope he gets better.

Yes @Shaz51 , you need a good sleep to function well. Hopefully tonight you are deeply in the peaceful land of nod.

@Zoe7 My sons soccer team is having a party after school tomorrow. They play for a local high school in the big town. My son and 2 other players have joined their team.

So they will eat junk food and celebrate tomorrow night. Hope they all enjoy themselves.

Re: HOME

@BlueBay . My son seems more settled now that he has chosen 2 courses he would like to do at Uni. First choice Architecture.

Second choice Economics.

I wish I could post pictures of the Deb. He just looked so mature and handsome. Frustrating not to show my friends on the Forum the special moment photos.

Re: HOME

I hopethey all enjoy themselves too @utopia - nice to celebrate a win together

How are you doing?

In response to: Re: HOME

Re: HOME

@Zoe7 . I'm doing really well.

Over a month no depression. YAY!!!

Saw my psychologist today, first time in a month. He says now my depression has gone, it's time to push through and do things. Walk, clean house, sit in garden, be in the moment, etc. I can do some of that. Slowly.

How have you been? Almost time for school holidays. You must be excited.

How are your dog and cat? Sorry forgot dogs name. Oh, Toby. It's Toby right?

Do you have plans for the holidays? Take Toby to the beach maybe?

Our days are getting warmer here. Mid to high teens. To me it feels hotter, but I think that has something to do with menopause. Lol.

Well I'm going to take a nap. Talk soon. Take care. ❤

Re: HOME

@utopia I’ve just caught up on your very good news. Depression free for a month, considering a psych said it was untreatable not too long ago, you possibly feel over the moon. And your sons academic achievements, all sound really good. I really am happy for you. Take good care of yourself. 💕💜
