Morning has broken

Hey @Eve7 It really has to be you that decides all that but in my experience you need to be ready for work to go back. If you force it then it can feel overwhelming. On the other hand, it may also be the routine and distraction that you need. Listen to you pdoc and discuss it with them as they know you better.

As for telling people - that is also a very individual thing. Weigh up the consequences of doing that against keeping it all to yourself. You may find you have more support than you know.

Not much help here really but it all really has to be your decision knowing what you can move forward with.

Good night everyone, it’s been a challenging day.

Thank you for your comments, they’re all appreciated. I thought ECT would end today but another 3 planned for next week. Had a visit from pdoc and he refused to discuss my return to work at this stage so I’m not stressing about it now.

I slept most of the afternoon but now I’m wide awake.

i hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Good night to you too @Eve7

Sorry to hear its been another challenging day. So a further week of ECT next week before another review.

I think your Pdoc is right .. any decision about work can wait for a while yet, and I'm glad you're not stressing about it.

I hope you manage to get some sleep tonight, despite being wide awake right now. Have you taken any sleep meds?

I am heading off to bed myself shortly. I will try to catch up with you tomorrow.

Hey @Eve7 Hope you are asleep now so will leave you this for when you wake...

@Eve7 Hopefully the extra ECT sessions help.

You need to concentrate on yourself, work can come later.

Will be around today if you need some company.

You ECT buddy, Snowie 💌

Thank you @Snowie I was just frustrated yesterday so will try and chill out today. There’s a group on this morning so I’ll go to that and a colleague from work is coming later today and I think we can go to the beach for an hour.

Too much spinning around in my head and too many decisions to be made. I’ll probably be here another 2 weeks.

I hope your weekend is calm and without any drama.

💙🧡💙

Thats wonderful that a colleague is coming in to see you. Bonus if you can go to the beach.

I hope today runs smoothly for you.

I am playing taxi today, running the kids to and fro from friends places.

@Eve7

Hey @Eve7

I hope you got to the beach.

Wishing you peace.

Thank you @Zoe7 I found out today I have more support than I realised from friends and colleagues.

I’m feeling more hopeful about facing the future and being a bit more honest with myself and others around my mi.

I hope your weekend is going well.

💙🧡💙
