Re: catching up

I had to sign a contract that to stay here I must attend all classes. I can't take any of it in. I get too confused or triggered

im glad you spoke to your mum at least you know what she is feeling too

Re: catching up

Oh ok My angel, Yes, i get the same problem, when i am anxious i am so hyper aware of my surroundings that whatever is said to me never registers. Karen, just do your best, all you can do is go to the classes and hope that some of the information sinks in.

If you don't mind my asking, what are the classes about?

Karen, it is such a terrible situation here, mum is really upset, we are being put under emotional, financial and psychological strain with all this, her children who have great jobs and a lot of money (at least double what we are on at a minimum) don't help her at all, they don't even call her to see how she is. they are so digusting, oh gosh Karen, it is just too complicated to me, i know this is going to criple mum and i, just as we where starting to get on our feet. life is just not fair.

Karen, my angel, you are in my thoughts, i hope thinking of your girls and me get you through this, i know thinking of you get me through tough times.

hugs my angel

Re: catching up

The classes are about depression and anxiety how to manage them, set goals. Make a plan for when you leave on how to stay well and not go down the same path. Looking at setting routines.

today was about how to make phone calls, paying bills and other things that we put off because of anxiety.

im so sorry you're life has become so complicated maybe finding alternative housing through the salvos or centerlink may help.

Re: catching up

Oh ok, well at least they may be usefull.

Karen, i so wish i could, but i can't be away from mum and the house. their is no way out for me, i am backed into a corner, i will try to sleep most days away when she comes, to make the days go quicker. i am going to go to the pharmacy to see what i can get to help me sleep all day.

hugs my angel, i am so low too, when do your classes finish tonight? i suppose 9pm, i don't know if i will be awake, so if not i hope you manage some rest.

I am sorry to burden you with my problems.

Re: catching up

Jacques you are not a burden. I just wish I knew how to help you.
my next group starts at 8:00 you don't have to stay up if you don't feel like it. Remember that you are not alone. I am here for you. I wish there was something I could do to help.

I will watch over you again holding your hand and never letting go. You are safe with me.
gentle hugs
karen

Re: catching up

Oh no Karen,

you need to make sure you have nothing that you can harm yourself with in your room, i would be devistated if anythign ever happened to you. what is distressing you most?

Karen, you have to tell the staff, they need to know, even if it means going back the the public MHU, you need to be safe.

Oh Karen, the girls need their mum, you need to be well and safe too, is their anything i can do to help you my friend? i will do all i can, just tell me.

gentle hugs my angel, curl up on your bed and try to relax. remember to practice mindfullness, and use your coping stratagies, they have worked in the past.
