    Hi Shaz,

    I'm so pleased you've had a lovely day, it's so nice to meet people in our lives that we connect with instantly.

    Things aren't the best here, I'm so angry all the time, about anything and everything, I have no idea what's going on in my head :p
    but I'll get past it and I know things will get better.

    My brother-in-law's funeral is on Thursday, April Fools Day, how very apt, he would be thrilled to know it was on that day, he never did take himself too seriously :)

  • Hello,

    Hope everyone doing as ok as they can and hugs to those who need them.

    Had a rough night and woke in a panic a few times, felt very low and tearful when BF went to work so decided to stay in bed. Got up after lunch and feeling better, although think scared parcelforce mad with a vision he didn't want, me with bed hair and in pj's!

    Throat def improving, one side gone down, but one tonsil still resembles a golf ball.

    Stayed in pj's all day, BF moaned when got in. Some days I just don't think he understands. He either says nothing or constant questioning which makes me feel worse. But at other times he is just perfect.

    Will try to go to work tomorrow if feel better. I miss my close friends there even tho they stay in touch via text or facebook its not the same as seeing them.

    Love to you all

    xx

    been having lots of trouble slleping lately, but tonight is the worst by far.
    so many memories of the past keep coming into my head. thru the day i knit, or meet up with friends, shopping or craft groups. my kids keep me occupied and busy too. but despite how tired i am, my brain conjures up past images, and with it all the emotions, all the hurt, so fed up of crying every night

    Shaz,

    I'm sorry that you're feeling so hurt, nothing like the darkness to make our minds come alive.
    It's good you've got stuff going on in your life, you just need to let all that other crap go, because that's all it is and you are worth so much more than that.

    Take care,
    Alison x

    Apparently, because I can sit on here all day, I can work and therefore can't really be depressed.

    On the good side, I haven't run away yet this week.

    Morning everyone. Im feeling a bit fed up and this rainy weather doesn't help. Want to go out for a walk with the dogs.:( At least we haven't got the snow that some people have got though.

    Saw a doc at the hospital yesterday with the results of my gastroscopy. He seemed to be in a hurry and said "You've probably got coeliac disease". Probably??? Then he said "Are you still getting pains in your stomach?" and I told him I hadn't had any pains. He looked down at his notes, which obviously said I had been getting pains and repeated his question, "Your stomach pains. Are you still getting them? Or have they stopped?" and I could see he just wanted an easy answer and not a discussion so I said "Yes, my pains have stopped" because that seemed to be what he wanted me to say.:cool:

    He is referring me to the gastroenterology department because "they are the experts" because I still have diarrhoea, which should have cleared up by now. I was puzzled because I thought I was already in the gastro department and actually speaking to an expert!!! I felt like saying "If they are the experts, then who are you???"

    Sometimes I hate the NHS. I was so angry and upset after this visit that I bought a bottle of red and had a big glass with my tea, followed by Malibu. Silly I know, but I was so annoyed.

    I woke up at 4.00 am and only got back to sleep at 7.00am. I was tossing and turning and churning things over in my mind. Its my own fault though because of the drink I had.

    I would ignore and delete all of your ex's text or change your phone number. Or you could always text him to tell him you're changing your number and to not bother contacting you on it again. He may believe you and then you can just keep your number.

    All the best, Shaz, and everyone else.
