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 🙂

Hey @Bow

Sorry you're feeling so overwhelmed right now. Sounds like a tough day, but good on you for reaching out to share about it here! I'm sitting with you, and I hope the sadness passes sooner rather than later! 💙🐝

Sometimes I get so overwhelmed with sadness over all the things that I am missing out on because of my eating disorder. Todays is one of them days 😭💔


Sorry to hear, @Bow 😞

Can I ask why water is not safe for you? No need to answer if you'd rather not!

Re: My Mosaic

Had a really bad afternoon/ evening yesterday and still not in such a good place.

I’m still waiting around to speak with the dietitian about why I am not allowed and not offered any fluids. It doesn’t make any sense. Gastro dr wants me to be drinking but I’m not given anything. When the afternoon tea lady came around yesterday I asked for some hot water. I was going to put some chai that mum had bought in for me into it. Nurse said no. No external food or drinks.
i cracked it. Demanded to see the dietitian. She didn’t come yesterday.
Still hasn’t been around today.
I’ve also asked to see the social worker.

i just had a phone call with my own dietitian, was nice to be able to talk to someone I knew and who was on my side. She doesn’t understand why I’m on no fluids. And said to let her know if I haven’t seen the dietitian by 3pm and she would try and speak to someone.

im so frustrated being in here. I’ve been so close to just ripping my NG out and walking out.

I hear your frustration @Bow. I doesn’t seem like they are helping you much. Hopefully your dietician can help sort it out for you.

Just know that I’m thinking of you.

Thanks dear @Eve7

I woke at 5:15am to the nurse coming in to do my obs. Been awake since. I lay awake for ages stewing over the prospect of no fluids again for the next couple of days and decided to just get up and go find the kitchenette. Grab a cup of hot water and went back to my room and made myself a chai!
