    Hi Everyone...well thats me done...I am officially a statistic:(

    Nerves overtook me for much of the time & that awful mixture of apprehension & feeling sick has stayed with me all day.

    I guess we all have different reactions when the day happens & for me the overwheming sense of failure is something I just can`t shake off. I did`nt feel elated or relieved or even glad to get out of the place.....I did`nt feel anything except failure. I guess that is something that I have to work on over the coming weeks & months.

    I did`nt see the judge ( phew) the court staff were kind & efficient. The coffee was full of caffine & quite nice I think ( taste buds clearly paralysed with fear by that time). Was out by 11 am & then forgot where I parked the car!!

    CAB debt caseworker came with me...she was so lovely & supportive & I`m sure I must have bored her to tears with my nervous chatter (;) I know you will be reading this so thanks again guys....you are the best:T:T).

    Spent the afternoon in a bit of a daze actually...but just coming out of it now.

    Went OK apparently. :D :j

    But I think SSA is a bit frazzled. Not surprised as it is an emotional day, especially if it has been a long run-up to it.

    (hope you don't mind me posting that SSA :o)

    Thanks fermi....don`t mind at all:T ...frazzled is exactly how I feel:o

    Well done you, welcome to the club :beer:

    You are much more than a statistic, you are obviously someone who cares otherwise you wouldn't be feeling it so badly, please actively DO something to take care of yourself every day from now on because you deserve it :A

    Job done SSAthumbs-up.gif Very well done.

    The fact that you got through it while feeling like that is testament to your strength and tenacity.

    I am proud of you.

    well done on getting through the day hun.

    no wonder you're frazzled, it's very tough emotionally. be kind to yourself, you held on as long as was humanly possible and tried your hardest to avoid this.

    onwards and upwards now girl!!!!!!!! xxx
