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

Been sleeping on and off all day @Snowie That is a clear sign to me that I am not very well. Have made it to my parent's place and fed their dogs. The drive was good for me to get out of the house. Feel a little better tonight but mindful I have not been well all week and hoping very much that whatever it is doesn;t take hold over the holidays. I have a lot of things to do this week and need to have my brain working for some of it.

Re: My special place

Hopefully you get on top of it before it gets too bad @Zoe7 You must have needed the extra sleep then.

Re: My special place

Is there anything we can do besides distraction to help you? What's making you feel unsafe? Could you call the HC at all?

I'm sorry you're feeling this way as you were not too bad a little while ago. It must be frustrating for you hun.

Re: My special place

Havent slept well the last few nights @Snowie but going to try to stay up a bit later tonight and see if that helps sleep through the night again. I know you get how much a lack of sleep affects us! I was feeling much better at the end of the week but it has hit me again yesterday and today. Hopefully it doesn't get any worse. I have the panel meeting on Tuesday and then psych, DBT and pdoc on Wednesday. My sister's partner's nephew is coming down for a few days this week too so I will do something with them. He is a really lovely kid and it eill be nice to see him.

What are your plans this week?

Re: My special place

I feel like a yo yo @Sans911 I go from 0 to 100 in a matter of minutes. Have emailed my psych so waiting to hear back from him. He is normally pretty good and gets back to me quickly.

My thoughts are making me feel unsafe. I am just trying to get my sh under control.

Re: My special place

You have a busy week too Hon but it seems like you really need that extra support this week so that is a good thing. In the meantime let us help you get through because we really care about you @Snowie

Re: My special place

Your thoughts are just that @Snowie. Thoughts. You don't have to act on them, and a lot of the time they're just feeding you utter BS. You know that. Don't give them energy or power.

I'm glad you emailed your psych. Well done. @Zoe7 and I will sit with you to help you keep safe. Let's just get through 5mins at a time. Does that sound reasonable?

Re: My special place

Yes @Snowie both @Sans911 and I are only too happy to be here and support you - that is what you do when you care about someone - so anything you need tonight that we can help with - we are here with you Hon

Re: My special place

Thanks @Zoe7 @Sans911 . I know what my psych will recommend. Izzy is keeping me company cuddled up next to me using my leg as a pillow!

I'm trying to take it bit by bit @Sans911. I know you both know how hard this can be at times and how much these thoughts invade us.
