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

H and son just got home which is good. I know we all have that inner strength to get through, it just sometimes it gets lost or misplaced for awhile.

I am imagining Toby all spread out taking up most of the couch!

Re: My special place

So glad hubby and son are home @Snowie Did they have a good weekend together?

Yes Toby takes up a fair bit of the couch. He is not very big but seems to double in side when he does his door mat thing lol

Re: My special place

Cats aren't in my best books right now @Snowie. They've been right pests before I fed them. Jumping and down off the bed, but won't let me pat them. Meowing constantly. They're a bit bored atm. I don't play with them enough. Now they want to go outside, and I'm not quite ready.

I've got a really big problem with ants right now. They're after anything. I found a big mess of them under my sneakers this morning. They were also all over and in my laptop keyboard as well. Now there's a heap on my usb charger as it's got some coffee spilt on it. I'll have to get some Antrid tommorow. I've had some horrible thoughts of waking up to them crawling all over me (my laptop was on the bed earlier).

I've got my pdoc, psychologist AND GP this week. Pysch and pdoc appt are one after the other. GP later in the week. Haven't seen my GP & pdoc for 6 weeks (my doing) and I've not seen pysch for two weeks. I stopped everything including meds a week ago as I was really fed up with everything. Back on meds now, still fed up.

@Snowie @Zoe7

Evening lil Sis @outlander if you're around

Re: My special place

Stopping your meds is not ideal @Sans911 so pleased you are back on them again. I do get that fed up feeling though - feels like everything gets on top of you and nothing will ever go right.

Your cats seem to be naughty tonight - mine is already talking to me for her night biscuits - it is nearly time but she will have to wait a little bit longer.

Ants are very annoying. It seems like you have a big problem with them if they are everywhere as you described - hope you can get that sorted - we don't want ants crawling over you in your sleep

Re: My special place

Yeah the had a good weekend away @Zoe7 . Both tired but glad they are home now.

@Sans911I knew you were going through a hard time hun. I am glad you are back on your meds. Hopefully you can keep your appointments this week as I know how much we need all the support we can get.

Ants are annoying little pests. Hoping you can get rid of them. I hate it when we get ants at home.

Well that isn't very nice of your cats. Unfortunately they don't always behave the way we want them too. Hoping you get cuddles with them later.

What did they get up to all weekend @Snowie Were they camping?

Here for you too @Sans911 and the same as Snowie - we care about you too Hon - only a tag away if you need

Re: My special place

I'm not a very exemplary nurse @Zoe7 when I don't even follow proper medical advice. I had no side effects apart from a headache. Some people report 'brain zaps'. It just gets hard for me to remember to take them every day, even with phone reminders. I had a heated discussion with my mother last week about her taking medication. I told her that she always had a choice, but I didn't want to see her destroyed and increasingly dependent if she suffered multiple strokes. We have a big family history.

The cats are now asleep on their beds, so I'll leave them be for now. Hopefully it will dark soon, and then they won't be able to go out. I took Mr A for a small walk at the front of the unit this morning, so he hasn't totally missed out.

Re: My special place

We all have those periods where we forget things @Sans911 especially when the days are all seeming to run into each other. I have always timed taking my meds with feeding the fur babies - if there is one thing I have never forgotten to do it is feed them. Some days all I did was get up to feed them and then head back to bed or the couch though.

It is good that you only had a headache and no other side effects - that would have made it harder to deal with and it seems you have enough on your plate without having any further side effects. Your advice to your mum was good advice and hopefully she takes it on board - but I can see how that may seem hypocritical of you when you had stopped your meds too for a time. The important thing is you are back on them now Hon. Taking our own advice can be hard at times - we know what is right but feel lost in our lives so don't care too much about ourselves - but we care about you @Sans911 - very much

Re: My special place

I take my meds with my second coffee of the morning @Zoe7, so if miss that I miss my morning ad.

Thank you for caring, that means so much. There are many days I don't care enough about me.

How are you doing @Snowie? Sorry, feel like I took over here.

In response to: Re: My special place

Re: My special place

They went away on a sort of 'working bee' @Zoe7

There are times when I forget to take my meds too @Sans911 , especially in the morning. Other times I self sabotage myself and not take them on purpose.

I agree with @Zoe7 , you are important @Sans911. I know sometimes we put ourselves last.

You haven't taken over here at all sweetheart. I am glad you feel comfortable talking.

I am feeling better. The wave has settled down. I think the prn helped too plus talking to you two.
