Re: rough time
Sorry to hear today has been rocky @eth it is hard when we have days like this. Hopefully you can get some sleep tonight.
My day has been ok @outlander it has snowed most of the day today. Does look very pretty outside. Went for a walk today. Helped a little.

Re: rough time
My day was a little boring. I was at a course that has nearly ended. I'm finding that I'm in a bit of an 'irritable' phase at the moment. Being stuck, in limbo, whatever you want to call it, messes with my usual ability to be patient.

Re: rough time
I hope all goes well tomorrow @eth. I'm only in the very beginning stages of putting an application in for the NDIS. For mental illness it came very late here to my state. But that didn't stop many services being cut or reshuffled which impacted on me a lot.
It sounds like you have a decent plan though that supports you in a positive way.

Re: rough time
Hey @outlander I've tagged you just now in a couple of places where I've talked about what's going on today for me. A whole bunch of not so little things that have added up on me. Not reallly up to typing them all again at the moment. Thanks for asking, it means a lot to me.
Thanks everyone else for the tags and support. Very grateful.
@Sans911 yes it has been good, but due to misinformation a fair chunk of my package went unused and could be cut in the new plan. And the things I need the most (e.g. weekly psychology and a mental health specific driver training program) are the hardest to get. No guarantees. The NDIS planner at the review meeting was very negative to say the least. I felt like I was banging my head on a brick wall with her.

Re: rough time
Feeling for you @eth. It’s bad enough feeling like you are scrambling with things undefined (NDIS) without needing to be vigilant about something else ugly lurking too. Sometimes just calling it a day, going to bed and giving way to fatigue is the best thing to do in the moment.
Sounds really pretty @Snowie . I imagined the scrunch of snow underfoot reading that. The air must be bracingly crisp too.
Hearing you @Sans911 and I think I am feeling u settled in a similar way tonight. I just don’t feel co-ordinated. Probably not surprising, when my environment has gone all scatty again, and the uni term hasn’t taken off yet to give me a slipstream to get caught up in. Low motivation is sucky, and feels like a stuckness.
Is there sonething you can distract yourself with ? Is there some sort of nonesense question you have always wondered about that you could look up ? Like how many moons does Jupiter have, and what colour are they if Jupiter is orange ? Or how a cat’s nightvision works ?
I’m not trying to make light of how you are feeling. It’s just that sometimes a strange question like that crosses my mind, and when I need distracting from the way I am feeling is probably the best time to let all that stuff loose.

Re: rough time
No wonder you're anxious @eth. Sounds like the planner wasn't very supportive at all. I'll be thinking of you tommorow and I hope you get what you need. Must be so difficult to wait for the unknown. Thanks for explaining a little too.
