  • Hello all,

    Haven't posted for a while so I thought I would just call in to say hello. Have been feeling a bit better over the last few days. Sat with my diary and worked out that I won't go onto half pay till beginning of January. That has made me feel much better (thought it would be sep/oct) but I know it's just giving me breathing space. Got appointment with OH in a couple of weeks but feeling quite positive about that.

    Other thing is, I have my first appointment with Community Psychiatric Nurse next week after referral by my new GP. Does anyone have any experience of this? I'm not sure what to expect.

    Hello my dearest lovelies :hello: And thanks for the shout-out this morning, Tiffy hun xx

    Hope you're all doing ok. After two months away from the thread, I hope you all don't mind me popping my head round the door to make a little sazzy squeak 'hi':) I might not have been posting, but I have been reading along and you have been all in my thoughts constantly - you have my word, that has never changed.

    Quite a lot has happened in the last two months. At the time, I wasn't coping too well and I needed... well, to be honest I wasn't really sure what I needed. Everything seemed more of a struggle than ever and I really couldn't see where my life was headed. The clouds never seemed to break. I know I needn't tell you all what that's like... xx

    Not entirely sure why or how, but somehow I kept going. Counselling was and continues to be tough, but it is helping. And my dear friends on this thread have been an absolute godsend. I know I have said it many times before, but if it wasn't for this thread - for the advice and for the lifelong friendship and support I was privileged to receive through it - I honestly believe that I wouldn't still be here.

    I was very lucky that something very special - or should I say someone very special - came out of that too. Gilly Badger (Gillette147) and I wanted to share the news with you that we are an 'item' as they say:D, and that we are extremely happy together. We have recently returned from a blissful weekend in Cornwall together and can't quite believe how much our lives have changed. We are looking to the future now and daring to believe we can be happy:)

    Anyway, I really don't want to trample on this thread with my news, or by doing so be insensitive to the very real and very difficult struggles you all are having to cope with. But I just wanted to say I'm still here and doing ok and still thinking of you all every day and sending you the biggest hugs I can.

    Please remember that you are all remarkable, wonderful people. It is a privilege for me to have crossed paths in my life with you all.

    I promise I'll drop by more often... if you want me too, that is! But I wouldn't blame you if you didn't:)... but the fact is Tiff has changed the lock on the smartie cupboard and I need Katie’s expert lock-picking skills!;) :D:D

    Much love to you all,

    Sazzy xxxxxxxxxx
