Twisted -self care
Every morning I drive east into the sun.
At traffic lights I put sunscreen on the backs of my hands.
This morning I realised that this is self care,
Very rare for me.
I need to do more of this....

Post here any time of day or night if you need company @Catcakes. Even if we have gone to bed, some of us get up during the night sometimes and can check for messages from you. sometimes it helps just to know that someone is hearing you .... a cyber touch.

Re: Twisted -self care
I’m exhausted. I could really do without any more dramas.
I’ve been fighting with my thoughts all day.
I’m trying to think rationally and calmly for my partner’s sake.
He looks so scared and depressed.
I m going to go to bed and try and sleep,
Thanks

Re: Twisted -self care
Sounds like a good idea @Catcakes.
Can you take a shower, only for the fact that it was something my Mumalways recommended when faced with highly stressful circumstances. The hot water helps to relax the muscles in your neck and back particularly, hopefully to help you sleep more soundly.

Slow morning here @Faith-and-Hope,
Thanks for asking.
Need to grocery shop.
My partner has an appointment.
How are you feeling?

Re: Twisted -self care
Not bad @Catcakes, thanks. I had a couple of these episodes again yesterday, but now that I have an understanding of them I am not afraid of them occurring. Just means I have to sit down for a minute.
Going to head out and try to pick up my art gear again .... meandering past a coffee somewhere .... and using a shopping trolley.
I hope you can take the day slowly too, and things settle.
Guessing it’s more than haemorrhoids ?
My first encounter with the “red effects” of those was rattling.

No haemorrhoids seen on examination
@Faith-andHope.
The Dr didn’t think your dizzy spells could be labrynthitis?
I’m amused by the thought of you walking your shopping home in a shopping trolley.😜
