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.

Thanks @Eve7 @tyme @AuntGlow

Broken sleep last night therefore really tired today. Struggled to get off the couch.

MIL having some more tests done. Hopefully will know more soon. Probably not though, everything seems to run in slow motion.

ECT tomorrow. Want to cancel. I don't think it's helping. Don't think they would miss me. One less person to treat.

How are you all?

Re: My special place

I’m here @Snowie and sorry to hear you’re having a hard time. Big squishy hugs 🤗 coming over now.

Ive been awake since 2.30am so will jump into bed soon. My pdoc visit went quite well and I really think we’re addressing some issues.

Thanks @Eve7

2:30am is very early hon. Hard when we cannot get back to sleep. I hope that you can get some more sleep tonight.

I'm glad your pdoc visit went well. Hopefully addressing issues can help in the long run.

Hey @Snowie 🙂

I can definitely relate to the broken sleep, I don't think I've slept through the night once in the past week so I'm really surviving off caffeine right now.

It must be frustrating having to do so much waiting for results regarding your MIL

Have you spoken to anyone about your feelings that the ECT isn't helping?

Re: My special place

I’ve spent the rest of the day on the couch @Snowie

Trying to figure out what to cook…toss between baked beans or fried rice lol. What are you having? Do you have plans for the weekend?

Its my Dad’s birthday on Saturday and all the family get Chinese takeaway which was his favourite meal and the family joke is “not from the one up the bl…dy hill as he didn’t like that one”!

Re: My special place

Hi @Ru-bee I'm sorry your having trouble with sleeping. It makes it hard to function properly. Caffeine does help a bit.

MIL is in the same hospital as the other week. They seem to be in slow motion. I know it is probably because they have too many patients and not enough beds. I guess it's the same at every public hospital. I doubt we will hear any more tonight. Hopefully tomorrow.

I spoke to my pdoc about stopping ECT. He didn't say I can't stop it, but he is worried that if I stop it, then I will just end up being admitted for more sessions. I will go tomorrow, then make a decision.

Can relate to the couch @Eve7 Spent most of my time on mine too.

Tonight's tea is beef curry and rice. I put it in the slow cooker this morning so I didn't have to think about it all day.

No set plans this weekend. Guess it will depend on MIL and my mum.

Thats nice that you still celebrate your Dad's birthday with family. Even better with Chinese takeaway (yummy). Even better you don't have to cook!!

Thats something my Dad would have said too!!
