Something’s not right

My special place

My special place

Well yesterday certainly threw everything off track. But thanks to some very thoughtful and kind people I was able to get threw it and continue.

I cannot say a lot about what happened as I am sure you all understand but need this support in place.

Things WILL be ok, just a lot to work out.

Psych visit yesterday sorted out some of the things and more things will be happening early next week.

I am sorry if I put anyone through any despair, but unfortunately what happened yesterday morning had to be done.

Thank you all for your continued support.

Re: My special place

@Snowie, keeping busy can be exhausting. I think distraction is good in moderation but sometimes you have to sit with emotions. I feel like whenever you tell people you feel down, they often tell you to stay busy so you don’t think. But then you’ll be working yourself to exhaustion.

Re: My special place

@Shaz51 @creative_writer Just having a cuppa now and having a rest.

I agree we need to sit with our emotions at times and cannot be just bottling them all up and need to confront them. However there are times where I think I just need a break from them so if I stay busy I don't have to think about them for now.

Just organising a day by day structure whilst I am in hospital. Will have most meals in the freezer ready to go and D's work schedule on there too.

Re: My special place

@Snowie, sometimes we do need a break. It’s good you had one today. I hope the hospital stay goes smoothly for you

Re: My special place

So do I @creative_writer

I am hoping the med change helps at least a little.

I know I will probably get worse before I get better but at least I will be in a safe place.

Re: My special place

Took D into her appointment today at the hospital. She has to have a few more tests but hoping we can get some answers to her stomach problems.

Finally sat down for a cuppa. Anyone care to join me?

Re: My special place

Has been a rough day @Captain24

I don't want to go into hospital early but I don't know how much longer I can take it.

Haven't done much today, spent most of the day on the couch with the dog.

How are you?
