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 🙂

Just laying on my bed in front of the fan with a cat on my chest @amber22

processing the events of today. Very narrowly avoided a hospital admission.

my support worker took me to my gp cause of things that happened overnight. I am so very thankful that the kind gp receptionist was on, I just had to look at her and she knew why I was there. Then the very kind and understanding nurse was on. She handed me the box of tissues as we chatted. I seen my gp, she was heaps concerned cause things are getting worse and asked if my support worker could take me to comm mh to be reassessed. I finished with the nurse and she asked if she could give me a hug, which I accepted.

spent over an hour at comm mh coming up with a plan to keep me safe. Every time the guy left the room to consult with someone else I was terrified he was gonna come back and say that they want me in hospital. He kept pushing for it, it was one of 2 options. But I don’t wanna be in hospital, not at this time of the year. Just a few days he kept saying. Just for some respite. Just to get a good night sleep. Just to keep you safe. No thanks.

im finally home. I’m absolutely exhausted. I missed picking my daughter up from school on the last day of school, which I am angry at myself about.
It’s so hard when the only thing that helps me cope at the moment hurts me.

sorry just needed to unload 😭😭

Re: My Mosaic

I totally understand why you would be feeling exhausted and I am so sorry how everything has unfolded for you today @Bow But I am really proud of you for seeking help and for also knowing what is best for you right now and what you want.

I think that looking after yourself mentally is the most important thing right now, so although you are upset with having missed picking up your daughter from school, I think it is totally okay given the day that you have had. You have done so well, even if you don't feel like it at the moment.

Do you have any supports that you could lean on for the next little bit? You are not alone and I really don't want you to ever feel like you are ❤️

Thank you for sharing

Re: My Mosaic

Just hope that I have made the right decision @amber22 cause both comm mh and I think my support worker were both thinking hospital would be the best place for me. I just know that with the way that I am feeling at the moment a planned short admission would turn into a long admission, and I don’t want that at the moment. 😩


I tried to make it up to her by bringing a slushie and a donut home for her. She was really upset cause her friend was leaving and wouldn’t be returning next year. We are going to do some drawing now I think.

comm mh are calling to check in tonight and regularly over the weekend too. And my suppport worker is on tomorrow too so she will call.
