Lucy's Amercia Trip Savings Fund and General Debt Busting!

I am so tired. I just want to curl up under my desk and go to bed!!

My shoulder really hurts, but Dr thinks that is just my body having a stress reaction (have currently taken painkillers and anti inflamitories (?)) and it still hurts :mad:

So much so it is painful to use my mouse

Just feeling a little sorry for myself at the moment, although I have managed to get past lunchtime with out having chocolate :T bottle of fanta and a special K bar though :rolleyes:

Babes, sorry to hear you are feeling blue, but well done for nipping it in the bud and seeing your doctor early on.

When you can actually see the blackness in yourself and recognise it, then you have caught it in time and will be able to deal with it. It's when it envelopes you, and you cannot see what's wrong that you are in real trouble. So view the fact that you recognised it, and dealt with it as something very positive.

Highs and lows are natural and normal and everyone has them but once you have an understanding of your own (please excuse me for saying this if it sounds blunt, it's not meant to) mental illness, then it will always seem like it's come back when in fact it's just a prefectly normal emotional reaction to shiite going on in life, or PMT or whatever.....

so take control, as you are doing, don't let these feelings beat you... and stay focused on your goals without letting any minor blips be an excuse to jack it in or beat yourself up... you're a strong chick, and you will deal with this!

I'm here if you need me PM or FB, or whatever.

Thanks Maz

I know and I am pleased I have recognised it. And in all honesty I feel loads better for just doing something about it.

I just wish the physical side of it all wasn't so painful! But I am trying to be calm about it and get some action plans in place to deal with the bad days.

All the stuff with my best mate has got to me and effectivally has taken a support network away from me. Although given her behaviour that might not be a bad thing!

I promise not to jack it in, I need to get this dealt with and learn how to deal with it in the future, nothing beats me without a fight I just need to recharge my batteries at the moment to get ready for this one :rolleyes:

Morning people!

Had a really good day yesterday, treated myself to a french nail polish! Which was nice an relaxing.

I have to meet up with the mate causing all the issues today as she wants to 'discuss what has been said' and 'give her response'. she is already defensive and I really can't be asked!!

So hopefully that wont be to bad. Mum is coming into town with me, she is worried I will be to upset to drive myself home :rolleyes:

And I am actually listing stuff on ebay :eek: So hopefully I will have a little bit more cash coming in soon.

Hiya, just caught up with your "thread". good luck with the meet up, and deffo try the st johns wort. im going to get some.. Are you getting it from supermarket? or an online shop? is there any difference in "makes"?

my mate has been telling me to try them for months now, good for you on going to see the doc too as i havent ventured there yet. just keep coming on here and seeing that we are all going through the same/yet different emotions and giving each other the support we need.

If you need a shoulder to cry on or some dodgy hugs:grouphug: you know my number, don't let her upset you!!!!! Or give you a guilt trip or anything like that.

Well done on all your Ebay listing!:T I hope it brings in loads of money!

Listed 6 things on Ebay and have a HUGE pile of Mum's homemade cards I said I would list for her (there's about 20 so regretting it already!) So Lucy will soon be setting up and running Mother Ebay and Paypal accounts :rolleyes:

As for 'mate'.... Mate no longer.

She turned up with a notebook and a list of stuff she wanted to 'discuss' :rotfl: which actually meant I wasn't allowed to say anything oh and....
Apparently my depression 'is just an excuse for me to be self centred' :eek: :mad: I walked out of the pub at this point. I DO NOT need people like that in my life and I am better off without her.

Sad thing is a text a male friend of my (she is his ex) said that she was a right b***** (:o) and he said if you want to talk I'm here.... a man can do sensitive!!

So sorry to hear about your 'friend' Lucy. Sounds like you'll be much better off without her

I agree - don't think you're the self-centred one! You don't need people like that around. Nice to hear about male mate being supportive - that's the sort of friend you want

See - easy sorted. And since you did it this way, instead of just drifting away - no regrets!
