Do you know what's stopping you from sleeping, Beth? I hope you can get into a better pattern soon.

How are you, Tamo?

Hope your day is going well, Jen.

Hope you've got something nice in your Tesco order, Dawn.

Sorry you're not having a good day, Beckie. I'm here if I can do anything useful.

not_so_insig 28-08-2024 01:56 PM

I have iced buns in my order Lindsay. Haven't had them for years.

not_so_insig 28-08-2024 01:57 PM

Post for support if you need to Beckie.

one_step_closer 28-08-2024 02:08 PM

Oh that'll be a nice treat, Dawn.

Cacoethes 28-08-2024 02:37 PM

Thank you both. It is much appreciated <3

not_so_insig 28-08-2024 02:56 PM

Thanks Lindsay. I have had my tesco shopping order now. Just the horrible task of putting everything away. Then because its bin day tomorrow I have to put the recycling boxes out. My glass box is full so I desperately need to put that out.

not_so_insig 28-08-2024 04:13 PM

Put the shopping away and the recycling boxes out. I have some cleaning to do today however.

one_step_closer 28-08-2024 05:53 PM

Well done, Dawn.

Ahimsa 28-08-2024 06:02 PM

Sounds like a busy day!!

I've just got my appointment at 7pm and then I can hopefully crash

one_step_closer 28-08-2024 06:17 PM

I hope you can have some nice relaxed time afterwards, Beth, and get a decent sleep tonight.

Every time I see your username and therefore relate it to your name I always think of that Dominoes advert where the guy is like "Beth, Beth, there's something I've always wanted to say to you" or something like that!

Ahimsa 28-08-2024 06:22 PM

I hope I sleep too, it's been a few weeks now that my sleep has been rubbish :(

I don't think I know which advert you mean - I don't watch tv though

one_step_closer 28-08-2024 06:23 PM

Wow that's a long time. Have you spoken to anyone about it?

Well you definitely won't know it if you don't watch TV!

Ahimsa 28-08-2024 06:25 PM

I tried to get a GP appointment, I have a phone one next Tuesday which is the soonest they could offer me (anytime 8-5, but I'm at work and they can't give me a timeframe, so if I'm on the phone with a client I'll have to just rebook it again).

not_so_insig 28-08-2024 06:32 PM

Thanks Lindsay. I have done 2 out of the 3 cleaning tasks I wanted to do. I have woken up from a nap so will do the third later when I am a bit more with it. It's not important that it gets done today so it can wait until tomorrow if needs be.

Ahimsa 28-08-2024 08:08 PM

That was a really tough session

Cacoethes 28-08-2024 08:41 PM

Are you ok beth?

long road 28-08-2024 09:41 PM

Managed to play RPG for a hour and a half and then had a seizure so had to come to bed. Asthma is definitely a lot better than it was but FND has not calmed down yet. It is frustrating.

Hugs available if you would like them Beth. Sorry therapy was hard. Can we distract you? If you need support feel free to post, there is the serious space to chat thread if you dont want to make a whole thread about it.

Hope your bad day has improved slightly as it has gone on Beckie.

Cacoethes 28-08-2024 09:47 PM

Sounds very frustrating jen *hugs if required*
Did you have fun with the RPG though?

My day has improved a bit thank you

Ahimsa 28-08-2024 10:21 PM

Thank you - its just a lot :(

I'm a bit low on words but thank you

long road 28-08-2024 10:39 PM

Hugs welcome, thanks. It wasn't a bad seizure in the scale of seizures (short duration and didn't fall) but it still takes it out of me and means I have to rest or risk more seizures.

I did have fun. We fought a big bird demon and his summoner. Much banter occurred during the fight.

Glad your day improved a bit.

I get being low on words Beth. We will be here if you find words and think using them will help.

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 08:37 AM

Morning everyone!

not_so_insig 29-08-2024 09:50 AM

Morning all.

How are you doing today Beckie?

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 09:56 AM

I'm feeling better thank you Dawn.
How are you?

tamobhuuta 29-08-2024 10:22 AM

Morning guys.

Glad you're feeling better Cacoethes.

How are you insig?

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 10:26 AM

Thank you tamo

How are you?

not_so_insig 29-08-2024 10:29 AM

I am ok except for the fact I have a sore upper arm. Probably slept on it funny. I am hoping some general moving about will help ease the pain.

not_so_insig 29-08-2024 10:30 AM

Glad you're ok Beckie.

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 10:31 AM

Ouch dawn! Hopefully it'll ease up quickly!

Thanks :)

tamobhuuta 29-08-2024 10:33 AM

I'm ok. They dosed me up.on prn before bed but I still kept waking jp.

Hope the pain improves insig.

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 10:34 AM

That's annoying!
Are you up to anything today? Do they have groups on your ward?

not_so_insig 29-08-2024 10:39 AM

I am off to the hearing voices group today.

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 11:04 AM

Hope it's helpful dawn!

one_step_closer 29-08-2024 12:37 PM

Hi everyone.

I'm glad you're feeling better, Beckie.

Hope your arm feels ok soon, Dawn, and the group is good.

Maybe you can try and nap if you feel tired today, Tamo.

tamobhuuta 29-08-2024 12:37 PM

I will ask about groups.

I hope you have a good time insig.

tamobhuuta 29-08-2024 12:39 PM

Ninja osc! I can't sleep during the day, but I might have a lie down. How are you?

one_step_closer 29-08-2024 12:53 PM

Even a lie down while closing your eyes can give you a bit of rest. Hope there's something on today to keep you occupied. Are you getting any visits?

I'm not sure how I am. Done my main daily tasks.

long road 29-08-2024 01:00 PM

Hey everyone,

Read but not really got words. Care about you all.

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 01:42 PM

Thanks lindsay
Well done for doing your tasks!

Lie down sounds good tamo

Hope you're ok jen!

one_step_closer 29-08-2024 01:53 PM

Look after yourself, Jen.

What are you doing with the rest of your day, Beckie?

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 01:58 PM

Getting my haircut at 2:30 which I'm looking forward to :)
Other than that, not much!

one_step_closer 29-08-2024 02:37 PM

Getting much cut off or just a trim? I hope you're happy with it.

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 03:39 PM

I had quite a bit taken off!
I had L's hairdresser, she's lovely!
Very happy with it!

one_step_closer 29-08-2024 06:11 PM

That's good. Strange you like to have a chat at the hairdressers though!

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 06:15 PM

Really??
I like to have a chat most places tbh XD

one_step_closer 29-08-2024 06:20 PM

Haha! Most people I've asked do not like hairdresser chat!

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 06:28 PM

I suppose it depends on the hairdresser. I always chat with my hairdressers though!

one_step_closer 29-08-2024 06:29 PM

Will you always go to the same place and have the same hairdresser every time then? I rarely go to the hairdresser so don't really know people.

long road 29-08-2024 06:33 PM

Hey friends. Ended up having a big seizure and coming back to bed and sleeping because it really took it out of me. Still shattered despite sleeping about 4 hours.

Mentally and physically blah.

Ooh new haircut, how exciting Beckie!

Cacoethes 29-08-2024 06:35 PM

Yeah I do tend to. And will now because the hairdresser is literally a 2 min walk from home. And they're all lovely!

Sorry to hear that jen!
Hope you feel better soon <3

It is! Growing out the dye and will be back at my natural colour hopefully soonish! Depending on how fast my hair grows.

one_step_closer 29-08-2024 06:49 PM

Hope you recover from your seizure soon, Jen.

I thought your hair was already back to your natural colour, Beckie.
