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 🙂

Re: My Mosaic

You’ve certainly had the run around today @Bow with your Mum’s appointment and D’s meltdown last night. I hope things improve over tonight’s meal.

My day has been ok, breakfast out this morning and my assignment this afternoon.

I am going to S’s tomorrow for gd2’s swimming carnival on Thursday.

Hi @Bow

Sorry about D hon. It can be so hard with kids, getting them to eat things, getting them to try things. Hopefully your dietitian can have some answers/suggestions for you. She might be able to help.

Thats no good about your mums appointment. Annoying when those things happen. They could have at least let you know in advanced. Hoping you could rearrange it for another time.

Ohhhh new kittens. Lots and lots of cuddles!!

Hopefully they can be a bit of a distraction. Something in your home to smile about.

Took mum shopping this morning. Could tell when I picked her up that she was in a crabby mood.

Luckily this afternoon has been a bit quieter.

I’m sorry I don’t have anything to give tonight I’m really struggling to stay grounded and not letting the noise and voices in my head from taking over it feels a bit scary

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Bow 💛

It sounds like things are feeling quite big in your mind and body tonight. I know how scary that can feel... what have you been doing to explore some grounding and soothing?

Re: My Mosaic

That must feel really overwhelming @Bow 😞

Sometimes we really do just need to crawl into bed and cry. It's okay to surrender to how you feel, you don't have to constantly fight - you're allowed to be human.

No apologies needed here at all.

Will you watch/listen to something in bed? 💛

Re: My Mosaic

How are you feeling today @Bow? 🫶

I am just catching up on one of your previous posts from the 2nd.

I'm really glad to hear that your SW has been showing up for you, though I can absolutely hear how frustrating it's been to not recieve clear communication. In saying this, whilst your appointment was overwhelming, I can hear they are practicing diligence and considering all facets of what is going on for you in order to give you the best support. But it's so understandable that your F/F response kicked in here - mine would have too.

Aww it would have been so nice to see your old SW around. I wonder if she is able to support you regarding the communication challenges?

Hmm, that isn't an appropriate comment to make at all! Will you bring it up with them at all? 💛

Hi @AuntGlow

@sorry I didn’t respond last night wasn’t in an ok state and felt it best I stay away.

today has been challenging. Wasn’t able to get up until late cause I’d had a bad nights sleep… and that’s just followed me all day. It’s exhausting. Truly exhausting. I have spent a lot of time locked away downstairs today alone…. But I have so much noise around me. So many voices. It’s confusing you know. Who’s who.

I haven’t heard from anyone today. I walked away from my appointment on Monday feeling that they maybe finally understood me? Finally got where I’m at and how challenging life is. They said they’d call. Sigh

sorry

sorry things just feel incredibly hopeless at the moment

I haven’t seen my old SW yet. Or had any communication from her. Not sure when I will.

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Bow ,

How are the kitties going?

I'm sorry you feel so emotional tonight. Did something happen?

As for the comment your previous SW made (the one that came back)... how weird!
