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

Oh, @Bow , I hear how tough it was that your psych opened up your trauma on a Friday afternoon 😞

Is there any way you can get your appts not on a Friday afternoon?

As I understand it, trauma might be at the root of your ED?

I really hope this weekend goes OK for you...sending wishes and hugs... 💜

Hope today is a bit better for you @Bow 💙🤗

My pdoc always starts our sessions by asking me what I want to talk about. I’m sorry that happened to you.

Re: My Mosaic

Thanks @NatureLover

My pdoc usually sees me Mondays or Wednesday’s, I think yesterday was the first time I’ve seen her of a Friday. But I will be mindful of future appointments, that they aren’t of a Friday.

And yes, it is quite possible that the trauma is the root of the ED… or part of it. Who knows really. I feel so confused. I’d like someone to write it all down for me, with arrows and boxes so that it all makes sense….. you think that would be possible?!?

Re: My Mosaic

Thanks dear @Eve7

I don’t think my pdoc has ever asked me that. But she does ask me how I am. She usually always knows how things have been for me cause she’s at community mh. So she can see the notes from my psychologist and case manager.

today has been busy. Mum had a market today. It was a really big market and very busy all day. People lined up around the block and waited for nearly an hour to get inside. It was a very busy and very successful market. But I am shattered now. In more ways than one.

And mum has another market tomorrow but I am not going to stay, I will set her up and then come back and pack her down. I really don’t want to do it at all….

how was your day?

Re: My Mosaic

@Bow trauma can definitely be a contributing factor to ED or disordered eating. It is definitely a contributing factor to my disordered eating.

It does sound like a big day for you, and it's understandable to feel completely shattered. I hope you are able to wind down and take care of yourself for the rest of the day ❤️

Re: My Mosaic

I haven’t done much at all today @Bow although I was out by 6.30 to take gs2 to a running event after which we went to the markets flor fruit, veg and eggs.

I slept for 2 hours and we all had Big Macs for lunch to support McHappy Day as my little niece has cancer. Next year I’ll just donate rather than subject myself to a Big Mac. I’ve been on my bed all afternoon under the fan but am about to go over some Uni work for a test on Monday.
