New post

Sorry!  Needed to start a new post as it was taking ages for the other one to load.  One of the joys of living in the country and being at the very end of a line.

Have you thought about asking for respite while your T is away?  Would that help to take some pressure off you?

I guess if you can wait another week then sometimes its ok to push it a bit.
Thats what i'm thinking the doctor wonders why i don't take the medication, but i read the side effects and i won't take them.
I am still anxious today, but i spoke to my social worker i don't know if it helped or not, she has booked me respite for 4 days at the end of July thats when i see my therapist again, i might be glad of the place by then.
I think depression and anxiety mixed together are not good.
I hope you have a good day. Take care

Hey.  Not all meds have major side-effects.  Some are minimal.  The lorazepam I sometimes take for anxiety seems OK.  I'm sure there is something that, if taken short-term, could help.
You only have another two weeks to hang in there now before your T gets back.  By the time he gets back you'll be wondering what all the stress was about.

I'm not even sure if i am stressing over him not being there, just life in general. I am going to ask him when he comes back the results of the questionaire. I have my social worker tomorrow and psychiatrist on Friday i don't see the point in him he has something different to say each time i see him, i wish they could give me better reasons for why i am feeling like this and getting worse instead of better.
I am feeling sick tonight i think i have the flu thats all i need.
If i am stressing over him now. what will i be like when i leave him i can't even think about it. I sometimes wonder why me? I know i'm not the only one who suffers but its so unfair i want to be normal whatever that feels like.
Have a good day. Take care

Having the flu is never that pleasant.  I hope that doesn't prevent you from attending your appointments.  That would be a bit harsh.

Ask him for contact till you feel comfortable in your new therapy.  Having e-mail contact with my T is helpful, even if I don't take advantage of it.  Just knowing she is there makes everything seem so much easier for me.

Me too.  Life does feel incredibly unfair at times.

Good luck for all your appointments.

I woke up really ill but i went to my social worker anyway i wasn't in the mood for talking though, then i got an emergency appointment to see a doctor i had a really high temperature he said i have a throat infection, he gave me an antibiotic which i probably won't take but i have been taking painkillers.
My social worker said my therapist hopefully will keep in touch for a weeks when i change over. She said i can also tell the new therapist that i like to be able to call them when i need to and she said that should be ok with them, if i need that support.
We are having thunderstorms today i like heavy rain and thunder.
I think its good you can still have contact with your therapist it is good to know someone is there even if you don't use, its nice to know your not totally alone.
I just want to sleep today, but its not possible in this house.
I hope you have a good day. Take care

Take the antibiotics.  They will clear it help and are probably way healthier than the pain meds.

It is just starting to rain here.  Is suppose to be wet over the weekend.
Rain is OK if you are inside (a house that doesn't leak and isn't cold) or your are in appropriate wet weather gear.
I never use to mind.  I'm a bit freaked out about going anywhere where there may be lightening though.  There are been a number of fatalities here due to lightening strikes.  

Hope you manage to get some rest.  Take and finish the course of antibiotics you were given.  Telling you to because I care.  =)
