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, I have a counsellor on top of a psych, so it’s not as bad.

I’m not sure what’s for dinner, will need to ask mum. What are you having?

Re: My special place

Thats good to hear @creative_writer that you have a counsellor too.

We are having fish for dinner. It is only hubby and I at home. Both my kids are at work.

Re: My special place

@Snowie, still early days with counsellor, so will see if it works out.

Fish sounds nice, I hope you can enjoy quality time with your husband. I just had chicken and rice, I’m waiting for sweet potatoes to be done

Re: My special place

Sorry about last night @creative_writer Fell asleep early.

I hope things work out with your counsellor. It is really much easier when we connect well with our supports.

Have you got any plans for today?

Re: My special place

@Snowie, no need to apologise, I figured you went to bed. I hope you had restful sleep. I have uni to catch up on, just listening to something relaxing right now, I hope the pressure feeling in my body goes away soon because I certainly don't want to sit with it much longer.

What about you, do you have any plans?

Re: My special place

I hope you can catch up on your uni work @creative_writer and that the music helps. It is hard to sit in that space.

I don't listen to much music unless I am in the car. My kids call my taste in music 'old' but I don't care!

Not a lot of plans. Already done a few loads of washing.

Re: My special place

@Snowie, I'm listening to a soundtrack of relaxing music (with rain sounds). I'm trying to stay away from overstimulating music. Nothing wrong with old music, some of the older music sounds better than the newer. I feel so old lol, not even 30 yet.

Washing is a good way to be productive, you feel so much better after you do it too

Re: My special place

That music sounds very relaxing @creative_writer

I listen to a lot of classical music, find it comforting.

The washing never seems to end here with 2 teenagers in the house. I try and keep on top of it by washing every day or every second day.

Re: My special place

@Snowie, classical music can be so soothing, particularly when you are in a state of panic.

My mum probably says the same about our household. She hates the piles of laundry. I manage my own clothes and wash them myself though, can't say the same about everyone else

Re: My special place

It feels like a never ending pile @creative_writer

What are you studying at uni?
