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

It was a nice wedding @Bow

They are our next door neighbours. Some other neighbours were there too so I at least knew others.

Sorry about the flashbacks hon. I know how hard they can be to deal with. Is there anything that helps?

Re: My Mosaic

That’s nice that you have that kind of relationship with your neighbors @Snowie

not much helps. And I know it’s all just gonna get worse in the coming weeks and month and I don’t wanna face it. Nope. Don’t wanna.

Re: My Mosaic

I'm sorry it is going to get worse @Bow

This time of year is hard especially when anniversaries are just around the corner.

Does your support team know they are coming up?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Most of them do @Snowie at least community mh team do. My support worker doesn’t. I think I somehow need to let her know.

I see my pdoc first thing in the morning. Way to be thrown back into things after my holiday. I am absolutely dreading it.

Re: My Mosaic

It would be good if your SW knows @Bow She does seem very supportive of you so maybe she will be able to help over this time. I guess it simply comes down that if she doesn't know she can't help.

Can you talk any of this through will your pdoc tomorrow? Perhaps your support team can place steps in place for when things get tougher for you. If you have a plan moving forward then this time might at least be a bit easier for you.

Re: My Mosaic

@Snowie I will somehow talk with my SW about it…. Maybe if it comes up in my appointment tomorrow with my pdoc, cause my SW is coming with me, then that will open the door for the conversation.

but in all honesty, I don’t feel particularly comfortable talking to my pdoc about it.

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

I can understand that @Bow There are some things I don't talk to my pdoc about either.

Perhaps your SW can set up a time with you that you can talk to her about what is happening and what things are going to come up for you.

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

My pdoc just ain’t very good at talking about some things @Snowie often just leaves me feeling incredibly triggered and vulnerable. Far worse than when I went in.

I will see what happens after tomorrow appointment in regards to my SW. She always offers the opportunity to debrief after appointments…. That’s part of the reason she offers to go. But she may be busy…. It’s her first day back after 2 weeks off so probably has lots to do.

having a lot of urges tonight.

Re: My Mosaic

Hey @Bow ,

Sorry to hear it is so hard tonight.

I hope you will be able to speak to your pdoc about it.

Do you still feel tired after your trip? Do you think that is contributing to your urges?

In response to: Re: My Mosaic

Re: My Mosaic

Hopefully you can speak to you SW hon @Bow

Sounds like she is very approachable

Hope you can find something to help tonight. Perhaps early to bed. That is my intention anyway.
