Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

Worry Room - Get it out, and walk away: No responses please

Got something that's bugging you?

Want to vent, but don't want a response?

Sometimes our minds can get stuck in circles trying to sort out an issue. This can keep you up at night, or make it hard to focus on other things. I find that putting things away, and not thinking about it temporarily can be helpful.

This is the place to get it out, and then give yourself permission to let it go.

Maybe you will need to get back to it some other time, but this is space where you can put it in a place so that you can leave it for some time and (try) not to worry about it in the mean time.

It's a thread where people don't need to reply, it purely just to get it out your worry and concerns.

If you want to show your support for someone, hit the 'like' button. In this thread, 'like' doesn't mean that you 'like' someone's issue, but you support them in letting it out.

So write down your concerns, put it in a vault, shut the door, and allow yourself to walk away from it.

Pls note: If you are reading other people's posts, please respect that they don't want a response. Show your support by 'Liking' their post.

They have taken everything from me. They have ruined my life. I am just a shell with no more soul. My heart is broken into a million pieces. I am only existing not living. What kind of life is that? I am so very tired of feeling like this. Of having no control. I am just tired of this life.

4 in the morning and I still get to sleep. I am so damn tired but I can't sleep. I am scared to close my eyes. Scared to see what I don't want to see. Why is life so hard? It shouldn't be this hard. It shouldn't be this tiring. It shouldn't be this painful and rough. I just want it all to stop. I am drowning and I don't know how to stop.

Sorry I've not been with it.

My 5th Surgery is next Wednesday 5th of August.

I'm anxious & stressing about it.

I have no idea what recovery time.

If things go well, with no complications - I shall be home that same day (1st time that's ever happened).

There have always been complications.

The shortest time I've ever spent in hospital (after surgery) - was 10 days (16 days the longest).

It Blew me out of the Water - 3.5 hours trip for Medical Assessment Clinic

Pre-Op Nightmare This Afternoon (2.00-5.30pm)

They put so many obstacles in my way –

1)No I cannot go home without someone with me - forced to stay overnight Wednesday night in hospital.

2)Get immediate Swabs for MRSI (Pathology tests) – when that was 5 years ago (2015).

Oh my….

Due to every previous Surgery having gone drastically wrong, or having had on-going Complications –

-It’s been extremely hard (past few days) for me to Minimise this upcoming Surgery – to reign- in my fears & overwhelm (escalating anxiety).

Nothing in my dealing with hospitals (especially this hospital) or essential surgeries has ever been clear, simple, or straight-forward.

This afternoon’s Pre-Op Medical Assessment Clinic trip was scheduled by them at the last moment – with only 24 hours notice.

The trip took 3.5 hours (2.00-5.30pm).

When last time (march 2019)(16 months ago) – I was in & out of there in just 40 minutes.

First the Anaesthetist Doctor assured me that he was confident that it would Remain just a Day Surgery (no complications) – that I would be able to go home (after Surgery) this Wednesday afternoon (5th of August).

Then the Nurse said No, as I have no-one to take me Home (Taxi does not count according to her), no-one to spend the night at my home (watching me) after Anaesthetic – she Refused to let me go home Wednesday afternoon.

Nurse said that I will be forced to spend Wednesday night in hospital – to go home Thursday morning.

Then the Nurse insisted that I go & get immediate Pathology Swabs (both today & tomorrow) – for MRSI that I had in 2015 (GP test).

That was 5 years ago.

She said that I have had a Surgery (March 2019) since then – Which means that I don't have MRSI now.

Yet she still demanded I go get Pathology Swabs & again tomorrow.

Utterly exhausted – too much.

Now it’s 7.00pm, have not eaten for 7 hours (no Dinner)…
