Depression

EthelBloggs

evenin all.. am very tired so haven't read back everything

ok.. the arm is a trapped nerve... phewwwwww!!! doctor has given me some antiflammatories and temazepam to help me sleep with instructions to go back if its not better in a couple of weeks so he can send me to physiotherapy. Told you he's ace

daughter is gone back to the same place, saw different psychiatrist and the nursing manager and put my worries across.. they agreed with me and said they would look into everything and get back to me, overall it felt much more positive leaving her there today

Huggs to everyone xxxx

Sazbomb how did the counselling go???? xx

...........and as for me?

I've just had an almost wonderful weekend (villa lost to Man U and took the edge off it lol)

I guess you could say I'm with someone now. I'm only telling you all coz I know how Blinky's exploits have cheered me up in the past.

I feel I can get up tomorrow and tackle the jobsearch people and get my plan for employment underway. Five days into my ADs and I don't know of any differences in my actual problems (my mood has lifted a bit because of the above rather than any drugs). I thought my kidney's were failing for a couple of days - but I think it's gone away.

I will keep you informed - but you needn't read it if you've got more important things to be getting on with.

Blessings upon your house

PS
CC come back!

Giily hun! You "guess you could say you're with someone"!:):) So backward in coming forward! Well that's great news!! :j You definitely must keep us all informed:D We want daily updates - only kidding hunnie! Just good to hear you had a wonderful weekend, that you're feeling happier and you're making inroads into the job stuff. Great news; you deserve it. You take care, much love, Sazzy xxx

Hiya hun. Good to hear from you. You must be exhausted after today, but sounds like a few positives in there re GP and your daughter's care arrangements. Hopefully you'll get a bit of well-deserved respite now...

Counselling went ok thanks hun. Bless your heart for asking. I was REALLY nervous about it beforehand but therapist was really nice and put me at my ease from the beginning, so feeling much happier about the whole thing now.

The 2nd phase went very well, everyone so so friendly, I'm very impressed and rather happy If I'm honest

Expecting bank to call me tomorrow to discuss my overdraft, that will be a weight off my mind to know that my DD's will be covered, been a nightmare recently and not had a full payday since September due to lower hours / changing jobs etc. Asda should be good for my money because I'll be on nights and not able to spend more.

I've sorted out a budget and had a LBM, I'm very savvy with money but I never get anywhere because I have the same outgoings and lower incomes! Not only that but my car tax is due next month which isn't good .

CCCS I will call tomorrow for sure, just to see what they recommend, im determined to get myself better and sort out my cash, but I never have any cash, I never had any when i was earning and well so its hitting me a lot harder now!

Hi LTD - no need to apologise about feeling happy! We're happy you're happy:) Sounds like you're getting your ducks in a row, making a start on sorting all the money stuff sorted out, which I'm sure will be a relief in itself. Takes courage to face problems and deal with them, which you're doing, so that's brill - keep strong, keep going hun. Love, Sazx

Thank you Tiff so much for your lovely post. My OH has rung the doctor and I have a sicknote for another week. He will ring my work tomorrow. It IS a load off my mind. So much so that I am having a bath (what is it about lows that make you so stinky?)
Elona, so sorry to hear about your dad - Ilost mine in July sio I have some idea of the hell you are going through and how lovely of youto think about others at this time.
Thank youall for making me feel so welcome here - My OH does what he can but it is so hard trying to explain to someone who doesn't suffer.
With hugs

Hi pumpkin!:hello:
You're most-very-entirely-totally and completely welcome hun!;)
It sounds like OH is an angel.:T I think it's often the worrying about all the possibilities sometimes that is worse than what actually will happen. It makes everything seem insurmountable. Once a decision or plan is made, we all feel a bit better. There's nothing like peace of mind is there hun? The guys on here are wonderful!:T
You will get through this pumpkin - don't be too hard on yourself and remember to look after yourself also. Give yourself time and don't make any big jumps hun, unless you know there's a soft landing on the other side!
Did that make any sense to anyone?! :rolleyes: Well anyway, I know what I meant.;)
Hoping you have a good day angel.
Much Love,

Well it's raining something here in Warwickshire hun, but I wouldn't call it happiness.:D :rolleyes: Sounds like gale force winds out there right now. I hope God smiles on you too gilly.;)

The most depressing thing I find, is how many new people we are getting joining our thread. But I welcome the latest batch of posters with open arms. "I don't know much...but I know I love you..."[quote/]
It is sad that there are such illnesses for people to have - but it's great that we can support each other!:T Help is much better than the cattle prod they used 100 years ago thank God!;)

Hi gilly - I knew it!
Gilly - you little minx!!!
That's great hun - I'm happy for you.:T We love hearing good news. Tell us more!

I feel I can get up tomorrow and tackle the jobsearch people and get my plan for employment underway. Five days into my ADs and I don't know of any differences in my actual problems (my mood has lifted a bit because of the above rather than any drugs). I thought my kidney's were failing for a couple of days - but I think it's gone away.
Well this weekend really has put a spring in your step hun! Good luck with the job search. Do you have kidney problems gilly? Or was that a tad of dry humour? Don't worry hun, it's very rare for them to both pack in at once - unless you've been taking your ad's with the old dizzy water!:rotfl:

I will keep you informed - but you needn't read it if you've got more important things to be getting on with.
Blessings upon your house...
And on yours gilly. I hope you'll be happy together. Right now, I've got 78p in the hat fund and I don't know yet who I'll have to wear it for!:D Thinking of you and wishing you a great day.
Much Love,

Glad it all went well for you. That's great hun.:T
Don't fret too much hun - you can only pay what you can pay. If you write to your creditors and say you've been ill and have just started a new job, I'd hope they'll be compassionate. These things happen. Anyway, February is a shorter month hun.;)
Never mind angel - it'll soon be Christmas!:eek:
Take care ltd.

I have that in both my arms - why do I have to be an over-achiever in all the wrong things?!:rotfl: I didn't want to say anything 'cos I'm not a dr but I'm glad you've got it sorted. That's one item off the list ethel.

daughter is gone back to the same place, saw different psychiatrist and the nursing manager and put my worries across.. they agreed with me and said they would look into everything and get back to me, overall it felt much more positive leaving her there today

Hopefully a change in [STRIKE]vet[/STRIKE]err, doctor,:D will make a difference ethel. They have to take more care of her and if they can't give er the help she needs, then they should be honest and get the girl the help she needs to be safe. Make sure you keep on their tails hun and keep MIND updated too.
Get some rest angel - well done you!:T
Much Love,
