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.

@Snowie Haha yep! Though my laundry is several weeks overdue.... buuuut I'll ignore that for now 😋

Ach love a weighted blanket day. You got plenty of snacks and such as well? And with the email, is there a time frame you're working within?

Re: My special place

With two kids I seem to be doing laundry every second day or it will pile up too high @Jynx

At least after this week I won't have to worry about school uniforms for the rest of the year.

Struggling with my appetite atm. Trying at least to keep fluids up. I would be lost without my weighted blanket.

I spoke to my pdoc on Monday about a few things. He made me promise if things got worse then I would email him. I wrote the email but haven't sent it yet.

Re: My special place

@Snowie yeah the two Sisyphean tasks of adulting - dishes and laundry. Never ending!

Weighted blankets really are the best aren't they! Literal safety blankets haha I love them.

Mm so you're sitting w some anxiety about sending? Would it be more helpful if I gave you some gentle words of encouragement, or validated your hesitations?

Re: My special place

My weighted blanket is so much of a safety blanket for me. It helps keep me present. I sleep with it too, even in summer.

The email tells him how things are and what my thoughts are. I am just worried that he will contact hubby or suggest an inpatient stay. He talked to me about ect the other day. I don't want to go down that path. I really don't want any of them to happen.

Re: My special place

Mm @Snowie that's a tough decision, sitting in the uncertainty of whether you do need that extra support, uncomfortable and distressing as it may end up being. I guess despite those caveats, do you think in the long run it'd be better if you sent the email? It's a tough call to make, for sure.

Re: My special place

@Jynx I know in the long run I should send the email. I know in myself that I am at that point where I need that extra support. I guess I haven't got a choice.

I'm just going to go to bed before I do something I regret.

Thanks again for chatting to me and the support. I really appreciate it.

Here for you through it all, no matter what @Snowie. Hope you get some good rest tonight 💜

This made me laugh @Jynx as due to my germophobia I do between 1 - 3 laundry loads a day! And I live alone! 😂 I totally couldn't imagine leaving it for weeks!

Re: My special place

@Snowie Yesterday sounded tough. Sending that email sounds tough too. 😢

Sorry things are still going minute by minute. How was your sleep last night?

I'm OK thanks but still not facing things in my life like the house tidying / hoard sorting / cleaning.
