    QUOTE=LameWolf;46529197]Hi all. May I please have a quick offload?

    I have to have a psychiatric assessment - not sure what this entails,:eek: or what they hope to achieve;:cool: we already know talking therapies do me no good whatsoever,:eek: and I'm on the strongest dose of Moclobemide I can have (it's a mono-amine oxidase inhibitor; I've already gone through tricyclics, which send me so far away with the Faeries that I'm a danger to myself and others,:eek: and selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors, which were fine for several years, but gradually lost their effectiveness).:( I've managed to work it so that I go on Tuesday next week, same day as my rheumy appointment, but 2 hours before, so Mr LW will be able to take me; and I'm assured it's two ladies who I'll be seeing, but I'm still absolutely terrified.:eek::eek::eek: If ever there was a time to give up, hide under Mr LW's computer table and chew a slipper, this is it!:cool:[/QUOTE]

    LW Don't panic. They are still human beings. I was terrified this morning about meeting greenbee - it was lovely. Psychiatric assessments are a nightmare, but why do you need one?

    Greenbee Lovely. While everyone here is brilliant and so supportive, a face to face with a human being is invaluable. JacikeG, Mothership and others - we WILL have a Xmas party!

    Seems to be a lot of flyladies dealing with traumas of one sort or another! Big hugs to all in need.

    Havent got much done today other than more ebay listing and general tidying.

    DD has been to her hospital appointment and got cast for a new spinal brace. She was sooooo good especially as she was dreading it. The casting table is like an instrument of torture! Her wound has healed nicely, so that is her for another 6 months:-)
    The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.

    LW.. I have cabin fever too other than being driven to hospital appointments and my nail appointments I dont think I have actually been out since April or May.. I am dreading the school runs next week as I cant get in the car so that should be interesting.. I may ask one of the teachers if a classroom assistant can gather up the girls and bring them out to me.. otherwise I will have to resort to sending OH for them which he hates. Other than school runs and a shoe shop run I have nothing planned until the 18th October!!!

    Dinner cooked and scoffed.. just getting girls to bed.. and Squeak.. she has been kissing everyone today for some reason.. it is very very cute but also very very soggy!!!! She is the dribbliest baby ever!

    Hi guys

    Natty :hello: xx

    LW huggliest of huggles to you xx

    Random thought: I smell LUSH.

    Done the tea, been to work which was a real effort today, coughed my guts up yak!, cleared and put away 2 washing baskets of clean clothes, done an online food shop, had a cry, arranged OH's birthday tea with DD1, fed the cat and the rabbits, chased next door's brat who ran off with my recycling bin little git, had a look to see how much their house is for sale for, got a letter off the council wth the address of my decanting house (a step further than last time at least) gave the workmen the evils, and currently have you tube choons blasting in my ears. Good day!
  • Had whats hopefully my last physio today - back to the running track tomorrow :eek:
    Had first horsey lesson at a new stables - OMG I know nothing! Technical!!!
    DH was work from home ..... so basically I got done ... well.... Nowt, nothing, nadda, dim!

    Luckily DH sorted the kitchen and put the laundry on.
    Cos I am exhausted! he's a sweetie.

    Wow we've got a large amount of trauma's going on!
    Healing vibes to all the poorlies!
    Coping vibes to those who have to manage with appointments and doctors!
    Slaps for all KH's... I'm giving them out free today! (I'm tired and not to be messed with ;) )
    Hugs if you need them x
    Sticks for black dogs - or perhaps revenge of the cat and you could have a large roaring heavy maned lion to chase them off ;)
    And I've got a very few spoons left myself but if you need them they're yours x

    Hiya Natty :hello: Didnt spot you back there .... mostly because I've been loafing all day and getting on here gives me the guilts so I was hiding :rotfl:
