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

Re: My Mosaic

That concerns me @Bow but I know you are good at telling us what you need and I hope you will do that tonight if things escalate. Going to check in with you via email. Please keep safe 💝

Re: My Mosaic

Sometimes I feel things in my body. In my chest. My heart. And I wonder if my body has had enough. Whether I’ve done enough to destroy myself. If my ED has finally won. I feel pains. Tingling. Sometimes I feel scared. Other times I just want the agony to be over. So I don’t have to keep fighting this horrible disorder anymore. Tonight doesn’t feel ok.

Hi @Bow ,

Sorry it's so tough for you tonight.

As much as your body wants to 'give in', there's a little flame burning within you that is keeping you going. Finding what is igniting that flame is so important.

Although SANE is not a crisis service, I'd encourage you to reach out to any of the following if you feel the need:

Lifeline: 13 11 14

Suicide call back service: 1300 659 467

Samaritans: 135 247

If in immediate danger: 000

Hold tight there @Bow

You are not alone,

Re: My Mosaic

Thanks @Eve7 you are still in hospital yeah? Any news on when you will get home?

my pdoc called this morning… hopefully my meds will be sorted out by the end of the day and I can go to the chemist and get my AD scripts filled…. All ready to face the weekend.

im a bit disappointed. My case manager has been away all week… my psychologist was going to make sure that someone touched base with me cause I usually have support at least every second day from my CM. But I’ve had nothing, and it’s been a hard week. I’m struggling. My body is struggling. So very weak and lethargic. And it’s now almost the weekend.

Re: My Mosaic

Yes @Bow I’m still in the Rehab unit and won’t be discharged until next Thursday.

I hope your meds are sorted now, that’s not good. Mine have been increased so hoping that fixes this little glitch.

Lots of love 💙💙💙

Re: My Mosaic

Hope you are getting stronger @Eve7 ready to go home.

i will call the chemist later and see if the email has been sent through. Fingers crossed it’s all sorted!
