    Hi Lady M
    its nice to know im not the only one:eek: Friday does seem along way off when waiting to get help, bit it'll soon come round. I cant sleep either it got worse since the tablets, supposed to get better in a fortnight. Kalms used to work as did valerian but dont know if i can mix with the meds. could be a goodnights sleep tho

    It's such a horrible feeling, isn't it?
    I have the drop in on Friday too so at least if the doctors does go badly or something, I can hopefully see my project worker and cry.lol. Although, I don't really do the crying in front of people thing so it will most likely be almost crying.lol.

    I've been on my meds for almost 4 months now and I still have all of the side effects. Had sleeping problems for a few years though, which are apparently caused by PTSD because I have nightmares when I am asleep and flashbacks during the day. I tried Kalms a few times and it didn't really help me. Tried Night Nurse too and neither did that.lol. I'm ready to pull my hair out. :rotfl:

    Hi BB
    I remember the sleepless nites with my daughter feeding every 3 hours too she was 2 months premature. She's18 next week.

    My oh is similar with help but he is afraid of doing things wrong (must repeat im not a control freak ) He also falls asleep on sofa but he works long hours. He tries to keep me company I hate being awake alone. He freely admits that he cant help with depression cos he doesnt know wot to do. me neither

    Hi Shazza

    I think my OH is the same, scared to do something wrong, I know I need to talk to him about it, but I have so much anger inside me when I start its going to flood out, then I might lose him, maybe I shouldn't worry about that (but I still do) A few weeks ago I did start to write to him about it, but I didn't get very far before I was interupted and I haven't started it up again. I am an expert at avoidance!

    I just realised what the time is, no wonder I feel so tired.

    Good night all, hope you all sleep well tonight x

    Hun, you're not stupid. Is there any chance that you can re-do the essay? Has your lecturer given you any feedback on how it can be improved?

    You've had a lot on lately hun, and I don't think you're stupid. Not in the slightest. [[hugs]]

    Have never been to uni but could one essay totally ruin everthing? Talk to your tutor in the morning(things always seem worse at night)
