Re: Sleeping too much
Hello @Faith-and-Hope
The site sounds interesting. I will take a look.
How disheartening doc comments. Wow.
I'm not off to a good start today.
Hope everyone has a good day. 😊💐

Thanks @Faith-and-Hope.
I think it's a home day, bake birthday cake, do chores!

Re: Sleeping too much
Hi @Former-Member, its how we end each day that really matters more. Takes me ages to windvup but these days I try get something significant done. You have children so that's a continuous big effort itself. One step at a time.
@Faith-and-Hope, hope your day is good. staying on top of the body alone is a challenge. Think I tuned mine out a long time ago. Trying to regain, not fun.
Bit sad over my family, my sisters birthday and no address to mail card re she's moved & hasn't let me know (big hint there), mum going on about our vreakdowns blamed on her, the others not answering me. Think I've been kidding myself I can make any difference this far away. Maybe moving away was my big mistake, they can't bother with the extra effort required & I'm so tired. Starting to let them go more each day. Sad, that's all. Isn't it awful to be plagued with automaticlly looking to others for validation - what a joke! Think it hey call it "External Locus of Control" (first year psychology) Changing it is not easy this late in the game. Oh well.
Scrubbing back a wall for painting. Few hickups with that.

Re: Sleeping too much
Rather than abandoning them @Former-Member, you have abandoned their way of life ... you have risen above it, and they have the choice to follow your example, or not .....
Some family patterns are dysfunctional and need tweaking ..... others are dysfunctional
and need to be radically changed .... yours is like that .... hold to your faith and drop the guilt .... it's not yours to carry forward .... it's too heavy for you ..
Set your sights on this ..... you got oy of that situation for yourself and your son .... look at your beautiful son and all that he is achieving .... that is your prize ..... you have kept him out of the mire that your other family members have fllen down into ....
Keep doing what you're doing .... send them material support when and as you can .... pray over them .... be a prayer warrior .... it's powerfully positive ..... and light a candle for that sister of yours .... that's your birthday cars for her today, and y'know what ? She can change address all she likes, but she can't stop you doing that for her anywhere, anytime you choose .....
Scrub your frustrations and heartache out on that wall @Former-Member and keep swimming ..... it's not a mistake to break away from an abisive cycle .... it takes monumental courage and strength .....
Sending you big hugs and prayers for fortitude and perseverance ...... you go @Former-Member ..... send the love but keep yourself safe, for you and your son.

Re: Sleeping too much
Thanks @Faith-and-Hope, made me cry (healing tears). Its really hard & I'm hurting and I've come to learn that 'hurt' emotional pain is behind the SI which is overwhelmingly strong today. Accepting I mean little to them & fighting to believe I still matter & meant to be here.
My d'DIL has birthday the day after my TS so maybe I can just focus on that, buy or make her a really nice card or something. Not wanting to go out but for my son I think I can do that much 🙂
Thanks again, means a lot.

Re: Sleeping too much
@Former-Member If we have done our honest best, we can let go of responsiblity for other family members. Its sad and a bit lonely, but I believe you have done the work.
Interesting visit with GP today. We agreed to forgo pdoc referral. I have enough with psyhologists at the moment. It will be good to just maintain stability without adding another factor. She is using the anti-psychotic as a mood stabiliser only, which I researched and is a common approach. She is just around the corner and said the door is always open so that is very reassuring. She finally had all info from CAT team. We are looking at recent flare up as accumulation of stress from social factors. Agrees to monitor closely. Building up trust .. I only saw her first a month ago .. it has been a problem with highly mobile doctors.
Said I needed to watch out for weight gain ... more facts are coming in .. metabolism is complex .. I have posted elsewhere on it.
@Faith-and-Hope are you ok?
