Re: catching up

My angel, i know how hard it is when people do not understand, mum's friends and family think i am "Lazy" and "putting it on", it does make living with MI very difficult, but some people will be bigotted no matter what Karen, i just want to surround myself with people who accept me for who i am, that is why i like this forum.

My angel, i will never violate that trust, ever, you are way too important to me, i never want to let you go, you are the only one who comes close to understanding the life we lead.

I am watching a show on Garry McDonnald, an Aussie actor with anxiety and depression. very interesting, maybe not the best thing to watch tonight, but i can't focus too well tonight, so i can't watch a movie, i don't have the concentration 😞

Re: catching up

Hi My angel, i have just been researching some information and have found a good article explaining the whole thing.

I do hope this helps Karen, try to research as much as possible, understanding is key to helping yourself, and allowing yourself not to be so hard on your self.

hugs my angel, what are you up to? how are you feeling?

Re: catching up

Im watching heart land its a bit of a girly show

I'm glad the girls have gone to bed without a fuss. They were so tired.

Its supposed to rain tomorrow so that will be a nice change. A bit cooler too.

I want to go up to the house but I still have to wait until the girls go back to school.

im going to try and make some phone calls to get quotes on getting the guttering replaced.

is going to take an effort I hate making phone calls.
The anxiety is awful and I aways say something stupid

Re: catching up

Good for you Karen, their is nothing wrong with Girly shows 🙂 as long as you are enjoying them. 🙂

i am so glad the girls are ok, i hope their is no night terrors tonight, i feel so sad for them being so anxious, it reminds me of my childhood 😞

Yes, i know you must be itching to get on with the house, it is a shame the girls can't play their while you do some work, but it is not too long till school starts, is it?

Ok Karen, the phone calls, i will give you the trick i use, i panic on the phone and forget everything and say stupid things like you 😞

i always spend the night before writing questions i want to ask, every conceivable question and leave space to write answers down as i forget when i hang up what the person said. when a person asks a question i don't answer straight away i allow myself to procees what they are asking and then answer, if i can't i just ask if i can ring them back with an answer later so i can have extra time to coformulate what i am going to say.

i hope this helps Karen, i know how tough it is, i had to answer the phone this afternoon, i am still shaking from it 😞

Re: catching up

Sorry I don't know what happened to the post:)

Re: catching up

Yes my angel,

you have started well writing down the number, and i know how scared you are of men, but the quicker you get this done the quicker you will not have to have contact with men, if that makes any sense?

yes please try to write down what you want to ask, and leave space to write the answers, and please don't be too hard on yourself if you cant do it the first or second time.

Haha, mentioning gutters, i have to redo ours in the near future, some of them are rusted through and thye are so shallow i think that is where the water leaks are comming from 🙂
