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

To feel violated all over again when the mental health registrar at the hospital presses me and presses me to disclose what happened.... and a male. I should of just said I sleep fine, but instead I made the mistake of saying I don't sleep well cause I have nightmares. He wanted to know why and wouldn't stop until I told him. 💔

Re: My Mosaic

You've done well @Bow ... so brave. Part of healing is being able to speak of our worst traumas. Have you been admitted? Sorry you had such a long wait. Are you feeling a little better now? Hope so, coz you sure deserve to. 💝

Re: My Mosaic

No @Emelia8 I came home in the early hours of this morning. I spoke with the very unhelpful mental health registrar, very invalidating of both my ED and my assault. He kept pressing for information that I don't feel he needed to know and made some comments that were really unhelpful towards my ED. He wanted to admit me to the psych ward but I said no, it's really an unhelpful place to be for my ED, which if I got some proper help for it would help alleviate some of my SI.

I was very quickly... and quickly I mean not really at all, assesses by a medical dr, bloods done which were fine and then sent home. I have not eaten in more then a few days and have a lot of unpleasant physical symptoms. I guess in all honesty, I am disappointed in how they respond to EDs?

I desperately need a break from the constant-ness of my ED, having those decisions taken out of my hands so that I can get some proper nourishment into me and some support and then back on track again. But that was not offered to me. Or perhaps just not available. Which leaves me feeling trapped and back at square one with SI.

thanks @Emelia8 @Eve7 @Jynx @Anastasia for your various supports last night. I'm really tired today so may just go crawl back into bed.

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow I'm so sorry to hear of all you went through last night. I wish you had been met with validation and all the care you need. I hope you're able to take it easy today, and that you can reach out soon to your supports because it sounds like it was a traumatic experience for you 💙

Thanks @Former-Member @Eve7

@Former-Member I have an appointment with my dietitian tomorrow, she is good at what she does, so will be able to talk through some of it with her. My last appointment for the year and until she is back in Feb- such a long time, she's got kids, so I get it.
Then I see my psychologist on Tuesday, again my last for the year and she has 2 weeks off. Guess it's a bad time for everything to fall apart eh?

Thank you @Eve7 , glad that you were able to enjoy yourself at the work Christmas party. It's suppose to be the time of year to enjoy food, fellowship.... I wish I could, instead I'm full of anxiety and fear.
