    I've got my final exam on wednesday, and am really really worried about it. sigh. how are you today? xx

    Low. SH and B/P are both quite bad at the moment. Just feel pretty hopeless - there doesn't seem to be any way out. Just stuck. In limbo.

    What is your final exam about? Have you got a revision plan for today and tomorrow? And something nice to reward yourself with afterwards?

    This exam is music and education - fun stuff :rolleyes: I've been revising all morning, and will be for the most of this evening and tomorrow. We're going to KFC after my exam for tea, haha :rotfl:

    Good luck for the appointment, are you going to talk about how you are feeling, or is it a totally different doctors appointment?

    Thanks. Yeah it is my reveiw. :rolleyes:
    Supervisor at work said I was to keep trying to get an appointment as it's quite hard to get one here - can take days. She said I was to tell them it was an emergency!! Can hardly say it's an emergency just because I am cying all of the time! Someone else may need an emergency appointment who is about to keel over and die so I don't want to waste their time like this!!

    I'm just worried because I don't want to be on meds again and I know she is going to make me take them again. :rolleyes: And I feel I am wasting her time anyway going back again when there is nothing she can do for me.

    Sure :D

    Nope, nothing. I've never been to the doctor about anything regarding how I feel - I'd just feel silly.

    Can I have a family bucket to myself?

    And why would you feel silly? They might be able to help :)

    I've got an assessment at the ED clinic on Friday. I feel bad. I feel like I'm a fact bulimic.

    Go for it! :p

    Yes, but the thing is, in my mind, a person who has an ED is thin, and I'm the hugest person ever.

    What happens there? Will you let me know? I hope it goes well for you xx
