didt know where to put this couldt be arsed to start another thread
Weigh in day have lost 3lbs side note manager has booked transport for diabetic review in April and they said i no longer need a bariatric wheel chair just a normal one:starstruck:
 
i feel more upbeat in myself at moment either im better or heading for a wee bit of mania Hold on to your crashhats it could be a bumpy ride
 
Feel guilty have been noting what I eat but not the carbs SOMetimes the diabetes has to take a back step. Not going to beat myself up for it
 
had four hours sleep last night thats a good amount for me at moment. took last Lorazepam last night so tonight will be interesting i feel very tired, tired to the bone. my eyeballs are in my boots. feel c**p and very tearful not 100% but im getting there bit by bit , very small steps baby steps. Thankyou all for your kindness and support
love to all
gail
xxxxx
 
its 115am and i have had 3 1/2 hours sleep i feel wide awake yet knackered. Cant get back to sleep im wide awake yet tired at same time i have a foot in eah caamp so to speak. think im goig to steam some stuff on laptop maybe i will feel sleppy and drift off
 
Had four hours of sleep last night. Head full of demons, can hear/see/smell them. MHN comes tomorrow maybe she will have ideas and feed back to my P-Doc. Both of them are new to me, so I guess that I will find out how good they are and what kind of attitude they have towards me when I'm not 100% well. Im going to show her my diary where I have written about my visions etc. The manager of LH says I should.
My thanks for letting me vent/write here, it means a lot to me.
 
Its 230 in the morning and i cant sleep due to my MH being poor. Both wide awake and very tired at same time if that makes sense. Have tried eveything thank goodness i see my MHN later 2day. Shes got to help me some how cant go on having these visions even if she has to arange an appointment with my pdoc I will take any help she can give me/or he can give me. i cant go on like this for much longer i need for them to stop b4 i become really ill and need further treatment Sorry to rant but am getting concerned and desperate now Am hanging on by my teeth Getting help in a crisis is a joke. dont get me wrong im safe at this moment in time but so much going on in head Its no good going to AE they will just refer me back to my MH team call the crisis team they will not come out
at this time of night, they are too busy as they are over-stretched and will
say you need to see your MH team
Dont get me wrong im not suicidal but im desperate for help of some kind

im ok just needed to get this rant off my chest thats all
thanks for letting me rant
love gail
 
Hope you get some help from the MH team today, sending you love

Sorry to hear you’ve taken a bit of a dip again @gail2

Do you find the weekends are harder? Perhaps there are fewer people to offer support on Sat/Sun?

Hope your meeting with the MHN goes well later today.
 
Thinking of you Gail and sending lots of virtual hugs and good positive thoughts to get you through today. Really hope the MHN can help you and get you back on an even keel. :care:<3:thankyou:
 
Thinking of you Gail, I hope you can get some support and a long term plan in place to help you. Sending love <3
