@NatureLover I was just gonna skip that question, but that's not you and me. We are straight up.
The doctors appointment went for about an hour it was tough, beyond that, i told her exactly how I feel, no down playing it or anything . I left in a pretty bad mental state. I had enough time to come back home for half an hour then go to therapy. In that time my doctor had contacted my therapist out of concern, they all have my permission to do so.
Therapy was harder than the doctors, the hardest session I think we have had, I left it a little early I know he is also concerned.
So come home in not a good mental state as you could imagine, and someone else here is having an extremely hard time, so there's lots of stress and so on.
So your question, am I managing I would have to say no .
But I am very glad you're here.
