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

Of course I will check in! I’ll be at work Saturday and Sunday nights though.

I hope you are ok? I also hope that you can put even a little bit of trust in whoever comes to see you.

Your CM sounds great. I’ve emailed mine a few times today but she didn’t get my distress at all! She just said keep doing what I’m doing.

Do you have something gentle planned for yourself tonight?

@Bow

I can understand not saying anything hon. I often have a list when I go to see my psych or pdoc, and end up not asking any of it. I think that is completely normal.

You are not stupid at all hon, we often end up not saying anything and then wish we had afterwards. You are certainly not alone in doing this with our supports.

Extra check in's sound like a really good idea, and something we can do here. It is hard when we have supports come to our house, but really hard to talk to them, especially if we haven't met them before.

Sitting with you hon and sending a bucket load of love and support your way 💗💗

Thank you @Captain24 @Snowie

my daughter is home this weekend, so hopefully I can feel up to it and plan to do something with her tomorrow.

We have just had dinner and are watching a movie. I’d really like to go to bed soon. I’m so tired.

@Captain24 I’m not allowed to email my case manager, but I can text her. My case manager told me to keep doing what I am doing recently too… I didn’t find it at all helpful.

No, im not really ok unfortunately

Re: My Mosaic

Doing something with you daughter tomorrow sounds like a great idea @Bow I'm sure she will love just spending time with you.

I hope you are able to get some sleep tonight. I find it easier to cope with things when I am not so tired.

I'm glad you can text you CM. Unfortunately just a text doesn't always tell them how we are going. It is sometimes better if we can actually talk to them and then they can hear the distress in our voice.

Re: My Mosaic

Im not able to text @Bow. It was her suggestion to email. I did try calling but someone else answered the phone and said she was on a break. They asked if I wanted her to call back in the number that showed up on the phone. I said no. But instantly I got a response to my email. I feel like she was screening my call.

Re: My Mosaic

I'm sorry to hear you were distressed but just didn't come online, @Bow 😞

Regarding your pdoc, if you know you'll probably shut down during the appt, can you give her a written list of what you want to discuss?

How are you feeling today?
