Something’s not right

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

My Mosaic

I like mosaic art, I’ve never actually done any, but it intrigued me. Made up of hundreds of tiny pieces of stone, glass and ceramic. If you look at it close up it doesn’t really look like anything special, if anything it looks like a mess. But if you take a step back and view the whole picture- it’s a master piece. I guess it’s kind of like life. So many tiny parts, some messy if we look just at the one part. Some day i guess I’d hope that the mess of my life will at some point look half decent.

So here is part of my mosaic, bits and pieces kept tidy together 🙂

tagging you @Emelia8 cause you asked 🙂

Hi @Snowie

how are you doing today?

my schema group got cancelled today. It was a super early message so I’d say a facilitator or facilitators kid was sick.

probably a good thing cause I’m not doing ok today. Everything is just too hard.

Hope your day is going better

Hi @Bow

I'm sorry to hear that things are so hard for you. I really do wish it was easier.

You were so busy with the market yesterday, maybe having some down time today was a good thing.

Re: My Mosaic

Thanks @Snowie

Yeah I guess so. I pottered around doing things for a while and then just been laying in bed the rest of the afternoon. I need to go have a shower, but I really can’t be bothered.

Re: My Mosaic

Just having a shower can sometimes feel like we have run a marathon @Bow

Even those simple tasks can be super hard.

Re: My Mosaic

Yep @Snowie such a huge effort! But I did it. I do feel fresher but I now wanna crawl back into bed.

Re: My Mosaic

Well done @Bow

Just having tea here and then going to have a shower myself.

Can you crawl into bed and your Mum put D to bed tonight?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

We’ve just finished dinner here @Snowie cooked tuna mornay. On the couch watching tv now. I’ll stay up despite desperately wanting to escape to my bed. D and I watch hunted together.

what’s for tea?

Re: My Mosaic

ohh yummy @Bow

We just had spaghetti. Both kids working tonight so an easy meal that they can just reheat when they get home from work.

Never watched Haunted. Will have to check it out.

Hopefully as soon as D is in bed you can get into yours too.

Re: My Mosaic

I seen my CM today. The last time I seen her… and heard from her actually, she told me ‘you know what you need to do’. This was in relation to my ED. And yes I do know what I need to do, I need to eat, I need to drink. If it was that easy I wouldn’t be in this shitty situation.

This comment from my CM last fortnight really triggered me and sent me spiraling even more. My SI has been really difficult to manage and it has made my ED even louder and more controlling.

Well today, I sat there in that room and allowed her to say the exact same things to me. Just eat it screams. ‘You know what you need to do’. ‘I’ll leave it in your hands’. ‘You’ve had years of experience’.

I started to zone out. Didn’t wanna hear what she had to say anymore, but I was trapped in that room. I thought about escaping, running, but she was in between me and the door.

I’m angry. Disappointed.

Why do people not want to help? Is there even help for me? Does it exist? Am I not worthy of the help? Am I just in the too hard basket? They are all just sick of me existing. Sick of me causing drama. Sick of me being a burden on the system.

I told my CM that my SI has increased. She knows what I bought last week and then disposed of. I’ve done it a number of times and there is nothing stopping me at the moment from doing it again. But she doesn’t seem to care.

She ended my appointment by saying ‘this won’t effect you much, but until the middle of next year I’ll only be working part time here, I’ll be working mon, tues over at the youth team’. So basically don’t need me Mondays or Tuesday. I don’t even know when she works. I never know how or when to contact her. She works afternoons and weekends, so has days off. We booked an appointment for a fortnights time.

My SW has been the only one working the last 2 days, so has been on back to back supports. I’ve had a brief phone call each day. I don’t want to bother her. She is super busy. Group will probably be cancelled tomorrow. She probably won’t be able to come with me to my blood tests cause it’s not really a priority and then I have a home visit on Friday???

And group being cancelled yesterday, I’ve had a lot of time on my hands. I try to keep busy, but when my mood is so low, my thoughts are so bad, it’s hard to find the motivation to do things that would otherwise keep me busy. I’ve spent a lot of time in bed.

And now it’s nearly dinner time, which I dread. Mum will be down shortly and she will of course ask, what do you want for dinner? If only she knew how triggering that question is for me. I wish she would just cook whatever.

Anyways, sorry for rambling for so long. If you got this far, thanks.
