Hi rose!:hello:
How are you angel? Sounds like you're coping really well hun!:T
quote=rose07
Heya, just poppin by...
I had my psychiatrist appointment today, he didnt listen, he didnt help, and said everythin wrong, lol, so the usual:rolleyes:
This is a tough cookie hun for a lot of people.
Sometimes only the professionals can really see the advances we make.
Sometimes we are too ill or confused by their gobbledy-gook to understand them clearly.
Sometimes it's hard to say or understand when you've only got a 10 minute session or however long it might be.
The choices here are:
- 1. Ask for another appointment and discuss it with him.
- 2. Talk to your cpn or social worker about how you feel.
I think it's important for you to do either of these things angel to help resolve your uneasiness. If you don't understand his viewpoint, it won't help you will it?
You can contact your local mental health advocate and ask them to attend sessions with you or as a last resort, you may ask for a different dr, which is allowed under certain circumstances if there are good reasons.
Sometimes it can help to have someone else go in with you in case you misinterpret something or forget something the dr says and then that person can and you cantalk about how the appointment went - it can be good to have another perspective.;)
im in a rush, going out tonight, (night out with the lads), lol, just want you all to know that ya thought of, so keep safe and keep going
You stay safe too young lady - and have a great time too!
Thinking of you hun.
Much Love,

I am ill. Tonsilitus has flared up.
I was uncontrollably shaking yesterday....I've thrown up 6 times in the night.
I had no sleep last night....it was hell.
I'm still burning up but I feel stable now.
But I still can't face sorting out the sick buckets (sorry).
It's hard to be this ill when you are on your own.
*groan*Girls are gonna love the way I toss my hair. Boys are gonna hate the way I seem.
I would rather drown with you than watch the surf with someone else0 -
Good morning :hello:
rose07, Your psychiatrist sounds pretty similar to mine. Honestly I'm in there for no more than 10 minutes. It's such a waste of time, especially as I have to take time off work to attend the appointments. All she says is you look much better than you did back in Feb. I'm thinking of course I do I'm wearing normal clothes instead of pyjamas!She's sitting there all smiley and happy and saying you've got so much to look forward to blah blah blah try to be less negative about things. They really don't get it. I got more support from the other patients in the psychiatric hospital than I do from so-called professionals. At least they understand. You must have felt that too hun?
Oh when do you get to see your normal psychiatrist instead of the locum?
:rotfl: sounds like you had a fun night hunI hope you enjoyed yourself.
What charity work are you doing this morning? I hope it goes well.
Gillette, I'm sorry to hear that you are so sick. I thought your girlfriend lived with you. Will she be coming round to look after you today? Big (((HUGS))) Try to get some sleep during the day if possible.-->♥<-- Sugar Coated Owl -->♥<--

Gilette, hope you're feeling better soon. Maybe just have a nap and take it easy?
