Here we can all be heard for a little while. Part 3

Seething on your behalf! No, I've never heard of that before and wonder if the assessor is being checked up on. That doesn't help you, though! Do they pay your expenses in attending these interviews? I think you should ask them for any expenses involved in re-attending, whether they normally do or not...….:mad::mad::mad::mad:

Fortunately my PIP assessments are done at home JM, so no expenses. They did say it could be in the next 2 weeks with short notice if a cancellation comes up. They ruined my birthday by making the first assessment the day afterwards, perhaps they will ruin my Christmas too. I am a wreck again now, I was only just beginning to calm down from the last one. I am just not happy at all.

Hugs and squishes. Let me know if I can do anything xxxx

What a nightmare, waves, once is bad enough, but I guess it’s better that they get all the info rather than mark you down and have to do a MR

Morning All,


WaS that is a awful. Anyway you can postpone until the new year so you can get xmas out the way.


MU, of course you are going to be excited and stressing at the same time. As we always do about the unknown. And when you don't live together its easy to hide stuff. Different when you live together. My bug bears with AM is that his washing up is awful. I often have to do it again. Hence why we are getting a dishwasher in the new year. That should help some what.


Also we are both very untidy and to be truthful lazy people. If we can put stuff off we do. Such as the gym, decorating etc. So we both need to kick ourselves an each up other the bums on that one.


At least you are planning it and taking your time to find somewhere that you both like and afford.


AM came and stayed for christmas which was 3 months after we meet. Then he went home in January and then came back in february and never left:rotfl:




Yours


Calley x

Hello all and welcome back Faerie!

Well, my next assessment is 2nd January. It turns out my first assessor resigned after doing my assessment and didn't write it up! I don't know what to think about that really? At least it isn't anything I have done. I am not sure if the next appointment is good or bad, on the one hand it's not on Christmas, on the other hand I will now panic every day until it arrives. This will mean it has been 7 months since they first sent the form and probably 8 months until I get the result. Capita pride themselves on taking no more than 3 months per review, Something has gone very wrong!

Impossible to work out what's going on, really. What a bummer - can you forget about this over Christmas and not worry until January 1st (or, better still, the 2nd!) Lots of good thoughts for a lovely lovely Christmas - for everyone on the thread and all the hummingbirds xxxx

Another update from me, a combination of the dark nights, cold, and the medication are making me weird. the past week I have had good amount of hours sleep i.e not sleeping longer than needed but the dreams/sleep itself is basically non existant bar the past hour or so, im not even bothering to check my clock in middle of night anymore im just switched off and the extent of the dreams is in final 2 hours I get this complex dream and its almost always about the universe ending and being reborn which Im guessing is my mind trying to tell me something.

I don't feel any less anxious during the day just far less bothered about consequences from actions, yesterday was the worst day in a week though maybe as I woke at 8am, I ate a lot of food and was awake 17 hours then took a hour to fall asleep.

Im able to get into tv/films more but not in a enthusiastic way more of my mind isn't racing so as a side effect no stimulation either, which makes me think of the whole reason I didn't want to take tablets in first place its just switched of certain things rather than deal with problems.

This has happened with some people on a Facebook page i follow WaS seems to be the more complex cases.

I have a cold
I am on my 3rd week of 12 hour nights total 60 hours
I am very very very tired lol

I've finally done my xmas shopping (and Swains!) all wrapped...just somehow have to get 4 massive bags to work and then his tomorrow night :rotfl: (did not think that through)

I'm probably not going to be on til after Christmas now so i want to wish you all a very merry christmas/solstice/holiday (whatever you celebrate).

I know this time of year can be hard, theres this expectation you have to be happy, theres family fallouts, theres lonliness and im sorry if you find it hard (i've spent 8 out of the past 11 years depressed and two manic), but just take it a day at a time, if you need a bit of space, go for it, nobody will mind, look after yourselves. If anyone needs someone to talk to samaratains are open 365 days a year so pick up the phone and have a chat if you need one, i'll be thinking of you all
