:hello: Everyone,
Hope you are all alright,I went out to buy the Sun Newspaper to get the dvd of Will Young and the Gorillas of Saving Planet Earth,then came home,had lunch,went to club,had a walk along seafront,then went to chemist as I needed some tablets for a headache I had which wouldnt shift,then to my horror realised I had left keys in my flat and my dad had to come and let me back in :eek: .This is now the 2nd time I have done that as well.
LP:All you can do is go to your GP and have a word and they can advise you.
lots of love and light,

:hello: just a quick post from me. Thank you Mclaren for letting everyone on here know that was very thoughtful of you.
I was allowed out for a few hours today so decided to go back home and catch up on emails/posts e.t.c It's also my brothers birthday today so it was good to see him too.
I was admitted because they obviously didn't think I was safe to be out so to speak. At least in there I do feel kinda safe/protected.
So yeah I am back on the psychiatric wardOn Fri. I was admitted to a hospital that was further away from my home town. I stayed there from Fri-Mon and was transferred to my local hospital yesterday (the one I was in back in Feb.) I much prefer the other hospital. This one isn't as good. The staff in the other hospital were a lot nicer, more supportive and the Doctor was good. In this hospital you basically just get left all day. I also made a few friends in the other hospital so it was a real shame to leave.
The advantage of the current hospital is that I am allowed to have my mobile phone with me :j
Huge (((HUGS))) to everyone. Thank you for all your support. You guys are amazing.
I'm sorry that I am unable to reply to all the posts. I hope that you are all looking after yourselves.

Hi everyone, sorry not posted for a while but been too far "down" to manage it. Hope you are all coping with life as well as you can. Things been getting worse for me lately and now i find my teenage son who has come through many problems and i thought was ok is now worrying 24/7. He says he has always worried but for almost a year he feels it has taken over his life and he cant sleep for worrying. He has tried all the advice about living for today etc but said he cant do it. I am concerned as mental health problems run through my family and i wonder if it could be the start of something bigger? My older sister got schizophenia when she was in her late teens (my mum got ia version of it in her fifties). Since he was little i have always wondered if it would hit my son when he was in his late teens (hes 18). I suggested he saw the doctor about his worrying and she might suggest counselling. He does not really want totake tablets - would she suggest anti-deps do you think? I dont really want him to go down that road but worried the worrying may excalate into something bigger if not treated soon.0

I would rather take tablets than feel so bad that I can't sleep - if it has taken over his life then it's worth at least discussing things with the doctor - who as you say might suggest the tablets or counselling. He could just try the counselling first? I know It's awful to feel like that, so it's worth asking for some help. Hope things get better soon. xSW: Wk1 (5) Wk2 (2.5) Wk3 - Wk 4 (4) Wk 5 - (1.5) Wk 6 (1) Total off 1 stone!:j0 -
