    evening all, well done katie on coming 4th in the competion
    steph, glad you getting things sorted with your fella, and getting new car tommorrow, hope sun shines, so ya can put the top down.
    rose, how are you hun?, i've added you to my msn, hope you got things sorted

    i have had a terible day, my ds has been in trouble again, if its not one son its the other, and its causing my mood to go down again, on top of that this guy who i was friends with keeps ringing me all time, and sending repulsive text messages, have ignored them so far, but its upsetting me, so reporting him could be in order.
    cut my arm again last night after all the stress of the phone calls, just in a mixed up place in life at the moment.
    on the upside me and N seem to be getting on well again after our split before xmas. he was there last week when ds was rushed into hospital, and he was there again tonight, when ds was arrested and charged
    big hugs to all that need one

    Sorry about your son, I hope things get better.

    Shame I live a long way from you as i'd sort the bloke out. Is it enough to contact the police about?

    Good to hear your ex is still supporting you with the kids

    glad to have helped Miro :) Hiya Saz,hope you are ok :)

    really off now for the night as I am shattered and I have a pottery course in the morning if it runs depends on enough people to make it work or it folds if there isnt enough attending which would be a pity :)

    chat tomorrow :)

    love and light,

    Katie xxx

    Go Go Go :o

    Miro hun - why did you punch the wall? Is your hand ok? I'm a bit worried about your anger hun. It needs to be expressed, but maybe not to gym-going mullets?:) You should be able to get counselling on a means-tested basis, perhaps you could ask MIND about places local to you that do this?

    Love,
    Sazzyxxxx

    I'm just letting things get to me at the moment and the Incapacity Questionairre is the last straw :( I'm pretty sure they'll force me back to work, expecially with a potential work placement coming up and no counselling :(

    I think my hand is okay, it's a bit achey.

    I had counselling at MIND, i'm a bit worried about going back though incase they don't accept me again. Maybe I need to go see my GP, i'm not sure

    Angel, if you are in need of counselling, I dont see how MIND can refuse you? I would have a chat with them, see what they say. Talk to your doctor too, they might have some other places you could try?

    yeah the texts are really disgusting, i showed them to my support worker, and he is speaking to his boss, to see if they can help sort it, if not then they'll help me in telling the police.
    sorry to hear that your feeling so angry lately. i tend to take my anger out on myself which isnt good either, ending up with scars on my arms

    I'm not sure they would refuse me, but I hate going backwards. It would make me feel like I have failed. I have, but I would be admitting it. I hate asking for help. I've done just about everything in my life on my own.

    I'll have a think.
