    Hi sf!:hello:
    Please make sure your wounds are cleaned and dressed hun.

    I wish I'd also been here to back up the wonderful support given by the other guys.:T :A :o

    They are cleaned :) I'm always careful when it comes to that part :p
    I cried for you when I read this because we're just at the other end of a computer screen and completely helpless. I'm glad it wasn't more serious sf - we'd have been devastated. This is how people feel when someone they care about sh's or od's.
    I know, I'm sorry. I hate bothering people about this, especially when its not in "real" life, if you get me?
    I'm glad you posted to ask for support sf, but sad that you did it in the a.m. anyway.:o I can only imagine why you did it hun, although generally it's believed to be a way of letting out pain. But are the pain and lifetime scars worth ten minutes of relief angel?:o You're a kind heart hun and there's no-one here that wouldn't help if they could.;)
    I know, I hate it as well. It isn't worth the 10 minutes or so of relief. It just looks horrible and its painful :( There are so many lovely people on here, who are so kind and nice to me :)
    Come tomorrow hun, please tell your gp - they need to set you up with an out of hours phone number for the local mental health Crisis Team so you can call them - they will visit people 24 hours a day. I know the Samaritans are good,:A , but imho, sometimes it takes someone actually sitting right in front of you to make a difference.;)
    The doctors on campus aren't open on a Sunday, but I'll pop in tomorrow :)
    I hope you're feeling better now sf (I'm now on page 29!:rolleyes: ) and that you'll get some extra support that you deserve.:T Thinking of you angel.hug.gif
    Much Love,
    Tiff xxx

    I am feeling much better this morning thanks. Nervous, but better!

    Thanks for the advice, although I dont think I'll be able to play the piano wearing gloves :( otherwise it would have been perfect. I'm going to have to put make up over them I think, and hope for the best.

    I'm so nervous already this morning, and its not until tomorrow. But, I'm feeling much better generally. Sorry for bothering you all with this :(

    I'm so glad you've been able to take care of them hun.;)
    Don't be sorry angel - you were obviously at a very low point and I know you're stressed with exams too. You're not any trouble sf, but you are cared about.;)
    What's done is done angel, so all we can do is move forward. Part of that, will be finding help that works for you.;)

    People on here are nice and kind to you hun because you deserve it. I wish their was something I could say to help hun and I'm sorry you're in pain.:o
    Are you having any mental health care or support angel?
    I'm glad you'll check in with the dr sf.:T

    I am feeling much better this morning thanks. Nervous, but better!

    Don't be too nervous hun - all the hard work is done now. :j
    Tomorrow is about showing them how well you do something that you love so much. Think of it as a demonstration of your talent, that's all angel - no more learning and revising and continuous pressure. You're just showing them what your tutors already know, that you're very talented. :T
    So, see if you can use this final exam as a celebration of your time there and your talents - and as a finale before you move on to better things.curtsey.gifhumble.gif
    And if you weren't up to it, you wouldn't be doing it! ;)
    cheer.gifGOOD LUCK FOR TOMORROW SF!cheer.gif
    I'll be thinking of you sweetie.
    Seize the moment and make it yours!;) :T :A
    Much Love,

    Hi rbk!:hello:
    quote=razorbladekisses;Tiff,
    Thank you for taking the time to explain what a mental health advocate is. I will definately enquire about it. I think it would be a big help.
    Not a problem angel. Every area has one. If you can't get hold of the number from the clinic, try a google hun. ;)

    I know I should have asked more questions but I'm just soo incredibly shy and quiet :( I did ask what a CPA was as I was unsure (even though I think I've had one before) and she kind of explained. You're right though if I'm unsure/confused I should just ask.
    I know it's easier said than done angel.;)
    That's why I think a mental health advocate may be a help to you. Again, you must be perfectly honest with them hun.
    Start looking into it tomorrow rbk because you'll need to book the date in with them for your meeting and an appointment to meet with them beforehand, so they'll be fully aware of your situation. So don't leave it angel okay?;)
    CPA, (Care Plan Assessment), as I understand it, is where there's a meeting with yourself and your various care providers to see how things are going, what your needs are and to see if the plan needs to change to meet your needs. You are perfectly free to contribute to the ideas hun - they want to include you in their plans. ;)
    Perhaps they don't see me as a risk, I don't know tbh.
    Even thicky Tiffy can see you're at risk hun! :doh: ;)
    Anyway, (((HUGS))) I hope you are enjoying your weekend Tiff xxx/quote
    Thank you hun. I hope you're weekend finished off well.hug.gif
    Right - I'm back off to page 30! :rolleyes: ;)
    Much Love,
    Tiff xxx

    Hello my lovlies :hello:

    Sun's out! :cool: Hope you've all got nice things planned for today.
    Sazbo, It's lovely to see a post from you :) It sounds like you've been very busy recently. I hope you are keeping yourself well. GOOD LUCK for the race next week. I hope it goes well. It's such a great thing to do :T

    Hi RBK :wave:

    Thank you for your kind words hun - means a alot. Big hugs to you. Yes, work is a bit frantic these days, so monday to friday is a bit of a washout in terms of posting on here :( But I do always read along, so you are all always in my thoughts.

    And thanks RBK for your encouragement with the race. Keep your fingers crossed for me! I felt ok after my long run yesterday - the last one before sunday's race. Just a question of taking it a bit easier this week, getting some rest and trying not to catch a cold from anyone!:rolleyes::D

    Hope you have a good day sweetheart.

    Much love,
    Saz xxxx
