Yes Shaz. The mental health people have acknowledged my disorders but are doing !!!!!! all to help me. They said to just keep going to hunts.mind. Well, they're forgetting that I need help with my anxiety that stops me going there and that I have an ED that needs regular monitoring. My doctor isn't even monitoring that anymore. Effin people!
Some lovely MSE members who work in the care field are helping me with other avenues I can possibly go down though. I'd be lost without everyone here.

Yep, first meeting tomorrow. Not telling Janette though.lol. She'll hit the roof. Seriously, I'm almost 22, which means I am an adult. She still treats me like some non streetwise kid.

Hope you have fun tonight Shaz, and he sees in you the same things we all do - a beautiful person who shines her light on others, someone who is so caring and a lovely, wonderful person.
You enjoy it girl. You deserve all the happiness in the world. ((((hugs))))

its disgusting that the mental health services are doing nothing to help you, they should be supporting you, and offering treatment. i had really bad anxiety problems, and i attended an anxiety course, which lasted about 8 weeks, but which helped immensly.
i first met ian online, and was so scared to tell my mum lol, i'm 37 and she still thinks i'm a kid.
thankyou for your kind words, going to go and get in bath now, then decide what to wear for tonight.
best of luck for tommorrow
hugs

Aww. I hope things work out with Sam just as well as with you and Ian.

Have fun darl.

Thank you. ((((hugs))))

Anxiety is a real shortcoming of the NHS. It can quite often be failrly easy to treat. I have treated people over the phone even. I dont understand why the NHS doesnt have an anni day and get proper people round and sort out all your problems at once and send you off into a nice happy life. With any mental issues if the patient doesnt know what is going on it is very unlikely to work

Hi guys!
Thank you for that link hunnie - and a warm to you brenda_p_a, (brenda)!

And trust you to turn up on Halloween, ilgd hunnie! It's really good to hear from you angel - you've been muchly missed but not forgotten.

And ccstar - it's also nice to see you posting again, hun. I hope all is well with you and yours.

And lm - are you okay sweetheart? You're a bit quiet and I've been a bit worried about you. Thinking of you hun.

And shaz - go on and enjoy yourself hunnie - you deserve it.:T

I'm feeling a very fluffy and minxy Tiffster tonight, (pass the smarties!), having gotten 3 dreaded ''I'll-avoid-it-for-as-long-as-possible'' jobs (never a good idea!), out of the way including 2 Tiffy letters. Huge relief. To our new friends, trust me, Tiffy letters are not to be messed with. Accordingly, I'll apologise now for the influx of feline pics that are bound to follow.

For those marking the occasion, I hope you enjoy yourselves...

:rolleyes:
Stay safe guys.
Much Love,

Hi all

I've been so busy that I've not had time to post (or barely lurk).

Hope you're all doing OK.

I'm now back up to full-time hours at work, and the job is going well - I am actually looking forward to going in now (I can't remember the last time I felt like that). The only thing not going so well is that one person is no longer talking to me. Previously each team had two people doing quality checks as well as working cases and now the quality checks for all 4 teams are being done by me and two others. This person appears to have taken the changes personally and I'm struggling handling it to be honest.

Other news I took my OU exam earlier in the month - not sure if I did enough to pass but I have been assured I can resit in April if needs be. I have registered for two courses and two residential schools for next year:eek: . This time I am going to fill in the disability forms becase I am still struggling with concentration and memory, as well as taking in information from reading material. I am hoping they will let me have recordings of the course books, and my own room at residential school because I am still having trouble sleeping (lol the other night I had to ask DH to go sleep in the spare room because his breathing was keeping me awake).

Anni did you register in the end for the OU course you were thinking of doing?

Speak to you all soon (AB would you have any ideas for helping with my sleeping & concentration? I am so easily distracted it is untrue - at work especially noise from other teams working is driving me mad).

KL.
