Re: rough time

Hi Bella @outlander

You always notice.

I think Gps need to feel are taking care of you at PRIMARY care level, and pdoc and meds do the rest. I am older now and do not expect as much from them. Being treated politely and respectfully helps. I put the LIMIT on my meds and they agree. I do not go awol or cold turkey ... I have so much difficulties with b0oundaries ... its funny that the only thing I seem to be very clear about is containing psych meds.

On script thing ... I filled mine out a few days ago, then saw gp and she wanted to up my Bloodpressure meds, then said wait another month and use the pills I have.

I am trying to manage bp food wise as well and my diet is about me, now that my son has left home. Physio has prescribed exercises, so mostly not too bad ... kept weight off ... more could go ...ha ha .. but not too fast.

The days just made me realise even more how alone i am here @Former-Member

Pops fine has sleep apnea which we already knew but hes refused any treatments offerred except for him ti change to a healthier lifestyle which he wont, doesnt even remember going in there now...

Pdoc still telling me to throw pop in a nursing home and to go on other meds. Tells me im not doing enough for my mh or making enough changes and my coping strategies i fall on when aniversaries come around are wrong things.

Re: rough time

Of course i notice @Appleblossom my friends here are important to me!

Im use to not having good supports and doing things on my own now @Appleblossom my gp always throws me to someone else if i have a problem that goes past writing scripts tbh.

I didnt know your son left home... its probably abit bittersweet...
Exercise and diet are good ways to manage BP 👏👍
