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 @tyme

Re: My Mosaic

Yeah, makes sense @Bow .

I really hope you find something soon.

Also, I read that you dread your psych appointments. Have you told her that? Also, I'm mindful you said you sorta can't do without them. What keeps you going to them?

Re: My Mosaic

Haven’t told her that I dread my appointments, but have told her that she doesn’t feel like a safe place @tyme

I keep going cause I feel like I have no real other options. It’s free. I can not afford to pay for therapy. I guess I go in the hope that maybe I’ll get something out of it. I wish there was some other choice at comm mh.

Re: My Mosaic

@Snowie , have you been in hospital? I've been worried about you.

@Bow , so besides appointments, I guess you have your art group? Are there any other social groups? Also, have you been able to look into NDIS? I believe we've spoken about it before.

Re: My Mosaic

I'm soo sorry to hear that @Snowie . It sounds likea. very hard and dark time for you. Do you think ECT is something you need to look into at this time?

Re: My Mosaic

They run groups every day of the week @tyme cooking, music, sports and community outings. But I just go to arts and craft.
I’ve thought about ndis many times and a few people have suggested it to me. Ndis won’t cover psychology though, which is really annoying. I’d lose my current SW too and wouldn’t have access to all that support and groups.

Re: My Mosaic

Would you consider starting the process? @Bow

There are many people on the NDIS who access com MH. And with your SW, I'm sure there would be a transition period.. and look, that's if you even get NDIS.

I just hope that maybe starting the process now will mean it's less of a rush later if you really do need it.

It's only getting harder and harder to access.

Anyway, just a thought.

Re: My Mosaic

True, maybe I can start looking at it once we have moved @tyme i dont have capacity at the moment for it.

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Totally @Bow . I was just going to say that it's probably not a priority unless you have a roof over your head @Bow

Anyway, I'm wrapping up now. Please take care and I'll catch you tomorrow.
