Moving forward

Moving forward

As Monday looms I have been trying to work out how to move forward. Today I started collecting things for my coping box (thanks @Crazy_Bug_Lady). I bought some of my fave chocolates to put in and have been gathering bits and pieces. Happy for any other suggestions as to what to put in. I think I may need one for the car too. I'm thinking I may copy some pieces of wisdom from this forum and print them up to add in.

I'm hoping that I get to write more on this thread than the struggle thread as time goes by. Please feel free to add how you are moving forward as well. 💜😊

Re: Moving forward

@Former-Member I'm having a difficult time at the moment too. Lots of anxiety and hand tremors that make some tasks including typing hard and at times impossible. May be a medication reaction so 2 of my meds have been adjusted but no improvement yet. Not too bad today but I'm not trying to do anything like banking which really flares it up. Have to wait and see for maybe a few weeks.

What's happening for you?

Re: Moving forward

Hi @eth. So sorry to hear that your anxiety is sky high and about your hand tremors. It must be very frustrating. I hope they fix the right medication for you soon. How are things going with j ? I'm sorry if not well and please don't answer if it's difficult. 💜😊

Re: Moving forward

Nothing really has been happening for me I'm just not coping with life @eth. I guess lots of small things have happened all at once. My youngest son was just diagnosed with depression and this week he has been really difficult to live with, angry at me a lot. Apart from that not too much I guess.

Re: Moving forward

@Former-Member haven't seen J for 3 weeks but whenever that happens there's always a good reason. I do wonder but he had told me of a few things that were likely to happen for him. Very sorry to hear about your son. Life is soooo challenging at times isn't it?

Sorry to hear you've been unwell @Former-Member

Re: Moving forward

That woul d make it difficult @eth when things are hard and he is AWOL too. I'm glad he is still company for you though. Have you got out much lately? I have a phams support worker now and she has been a great support especially this week just gone. Last week and this week she is coming twice to help me get my act together. We go for a walk once a week which guarantees I get out into the open spaces.

Re: Moving forward

I'm going over to visit a neighbour who just popped in and invited me for coffee. Nice to connect with you both again @Former-Member and @Former-Member. Take care and hope you both feel better soon.
