Living with Ourselves

Oh @Sophia1

You really have so much going on, at different levels. Wishing you the best in physical recovery. Maybe you will get some more general attention for your needs. Glad Son 2 is a hero and that you had good calm talk with son1. That is progress.

I am so sorry it took so long to reply to your tag. Nearly 2 weeks. It must have been hell for you.

I do not believe it showed in my notifications, or maybe I was overwhelmed in our Covid house at the time.

Keep self care, I hope your rehab people are good and let others carry you along. Will check in more often.

Love Apple

thank you all @TAB @HenryX @Appleblossom @Zoe7 @Paperdaisy

I don't remember

I feel supported by my psychotherapist, my physiotherapist and my surgeon

I do not feel supported by my gp whp loves my husband ..they get on

he cannot cope with my extreme high levels of anxiety, adrenaline and hypervigilance

how can this be within medical profession

mental health rapidly increasing..they are suddenly waking up to this

they are not realising thoses existing people with struggles are more deeply affected

I have no support in place yet

7 weeks after accident

nearly 6 weeks post op

I have to follow up all ..I am supposed to be resting avoid stress!!!!!

husband not coping.. i am strong one did not realise how much i hold everone up..he is falling apart

have tried to reassure supportended up saying you have to have your own counselling.. i cannot be your councillo

we all have to be responsible for our own health..

lead balloon again

extended family are a nightmare..exacerbating

concussion specialist who I had not heard back..I rang..2-3 months waiting list

now acat coming out to assess for more intenses or whatever home care package..wait and see waiting periods

moan moan moan

the world is in such agony

I can't help feeling theit pain

I just want to run away to somrwhere with many trees

ocean

sanctuary

no mosquitoes

who wants to visit

ever so quietly

I have missed out on my carer groups and lunches

my socialising is visit to medical appointment

Appleblossom you have done nothing

I know in my heart that you are always there for me

as with otherss

absences cannot change that

I find you when I return

I just cannot read your current situations

my head is about to burst

thank you for noticing my sinking also @Paperdaisy

Hearing you @Sophia1 💗

Sadly I have nothing left to give, as even after five and a half weeks in hospital, my cup remains empty.

Em

Thoughts are with you both @Sophia1 @Emelia8 😎

@Sophia1

You are going through too much, so I am glad you have decent physio and therapist. I have leaned on a physio who I met 2 years ago and she has been a life saver. She has a beautiful caring balance between simple focus on exercises etc but she checks in with the "other" parts of life and I get a neck massage fairly often. Hope you get something similar going with yours.

Sounds like you are supporting your Gp is you know that much about him and your husband!

I love what you wrote.

Ha ha no mozzies ... Just been reading "The Fever Trail" which has cartoons of mozzies and tells of history of cinchona bark for quinine. I am not too bad atm so dont worry about that.

The state of the world ... is in a big sorry state ... just focus on you.

Dear @Emelia8 Gentle Smile and gentle touch. You matter and your forum friends care.

@Sophia1 There are very little words that can help with all that you are having to continually endure Hon - just a whole lot of love coming your way and letting you know I am hearing you ...that doesn't seem much under the circumstances - wish I could take you under my butterfly wings and close off the rest of the world for you for a while. Hugs and hugs and hugs sweetheart 💗

Ohh hugs my sister xoxo @Sophia1
