I did thanks Westie - it's just as well I went into town, as I'd actually forgotten I was due to meet a friend this afternoon - I'd arranged it with her before I went to my Dad's but I hadn't had my diary with me at the time and I'd forgotten to put it in there when I got home!! No problems though we met up as planned and had one of those breakthrough times when we pooled our ideas and sorted lots of things out. We've done a college course together and also worked together, delivered trainings together etc and we always seem to come away from meetups with lots of inspiration!£10 a day extra in May '18[B]£35/310[

Glad you had a good *unexpected* planned meet up with your friend.
Hope the rest of your day was as good.It’s not worth doing something unless someone, somewhere, would much rather you weren’t doing it.

I had my GP appointment this morning - it went really well and the doctor seemed pleased with my progress so far... I told him about the two phone counselling sessions and the referral for CBT. We then talked for a while about some natural over-the-counter products I can try - he is still reluctant to put me on meds at the moment, although he said I was displaying classic symptoms of anxiety disorder.:o Another appointment in 4 weeks to check in and see if I need the meds.
I told him about the difficulty I'm having making decisions, even small ones... I haven't written much about that on here but it's been really horrible and makes me feel so stuck in one place.
On the good side I've been doing a few things that I've thought of myself, just simple ideas like going back to having a notepad and pen handy to jot down things that I need to do, even down to replying to someone's email or something I need to tell someone. The doctor told me that sort of thing will be part of CBT, and I will get things like this formalised for me, and helped to integrate into my routines. :T
Overall feeling very optimistic about it all and a way through the fog will be found:j£10 a day extra in May '18[B]£35/310[

It sounds like it was positive news from the doc Hummingbird, well done. :T Keep on keeping on lovely, sounds like you're making loads of progress and I'm sure the CBT will help greatly when you get to go to those sessions.
I still haven't done the online CBTIt's finding the time these days...
Much love
