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

Hi @tyme I hope you are having a nice day

@Bow haven't decided yet on what D and I are getting done. Still have over 8 months to decide.

@creative_writer I do try and look back and remember those times. They are normally associated with my family and doing something with my kids. But sometimes it is a struggle to remember those times. At times we look back and all we can see is darkness. Thats why I try and journal the good and bad times. At least I can look back and see those times.

@Snowie, sometimes all we see is dark. I don’t journal, but I remember periods of stability when my meds were working better. Now, I feel lost and hopeless.

I’m glade you have memories of your family and kids, I’m sure you’re An amazing mum and have a special place in their heart 💖

Re: My special place

I think we need to remember those times @creative_writer to get us through the bad times we have.

I always try to remember that it is just a storm and it will pass. I have made it through those storms before so I can do it again next time. Sometimes the storm stays around longer than we like, but the sun does peak through the clouds.

My kids are my lifeline. They keep me going.

Re: My special place

@Snowie, the sun can take a long time to come back. I’ve been depressed almost all the time for a very long time 😭. Don’t want to have to do it again.

Your kids sound like sweethearts 💖

Re: My special place

That depression can last for a long time @creative_writer but you do have the strength to get through it. But I can understand how hard it is sometimes.

Have you got anything on for the rest of the day?

In response to: Re: My special place

Re: My special place

@Snowie, I just have to stay alive, even that feels hard. Sorry for being so low today and not being much company. I might go out for dinner, not sure what to eat, feeling nauseous and headachy. Do you know what’s going to be for dinner?

Re: My special place

There's no need to be sorry @creative_writer We all have our down times. It is okay to feel that way. You are doing a great job just staying present hon. Go gentle on yourself. If you go out where will you go?

I am going out for tea with some of H's friends. We are just going to the local pub. Really don't feel like going and not up for talking with people, but will pretend like everything is ok. Sometimes we just have to do things even if we don't want too.

Re: My special place

@Snowie, they are saying we will go tom instead since we already have chicken from the butcher. We will probably be going to a local shopping centre tom. I hope the tea goes okay, I totally get what you mean by not wanting to go out but you have to. It’s tiring pretending but it’s how we have been socialised

Re: My special place

I would love nothing more then to put my pj's on and snuggle on the couch, but will put my big girl pants on and go out for tea @creative_writer

Do you do much cooking?

I actually love to cook meals. I find it soothes me. I just hate having to leave the house and go buy the ingredients!!

In response to: Re: My special place

Re: My special place

Hence I opt for the meal delivery boxes which you cook at home @Snowie LOL
