Hi insig how are you?

They let L stay with me while I had my dinner! So much for protected meal times!

Thanks guys!
I did it to the best of my ability!
It's in the hands of the universe now (not that I trust it) XD

That's good tamo!
Protected meal times are silly

Morning everyone

Morning! Got a little bit more sleep last night which is nice.

How are you Beckie?

That's good!
How are you feeling?

I'm ok thanks.
Was super tired last night but I think I got a decent sleep. Was expecting anxiety dreams because of work, but had none luckily!

Bit short of breath but not too bad. Just taken steroids so zoomies will probably hit soon.

Glad you didn't have any anxiety dreams. I am sure you did a great job, you probably sleptt decent because you worked so hard!

Glad you feel a bit better
Hope you can find time to attempt to rest today!

Thanks :)
They said they don't expect me to do everything perfectly the first time, and as long as the newspapers, food scan and locking up is done properly, they are the main things. And I did those. I was trying the back door so hard to make sure it was locked, it probably looked like I was trying to break in XD

I will do my best to rest.

I remember the first time I locked up the office it was nerve wracking! And all I had to do was turn off the lights and lock the doors! Glad they are understanding and not expecting perfection straight away. Lol at looking like you were trying to break in while locking up XD

Good!

It is terrifying!
It genuinely did! Was full on yanking the doors and twisting the handle XD
Luckily, the back door isn't visible from basically anywhere, unless someone from one of the other shops is out vaping/smoking.

Morning guys.

Well done on locking up Cacoethes!

Glad you got more sleep lr.

My dad is coming to see me this afternoon :)

Thanks tamo!

That's good. Hope you have a nice visit!
Is he going to bring costa?

Hope your visit with your Dad goes well Tamo :)

Hope your shift goes well Beckie (I think you said you start at 1pm again today) :)

I am a bit zoomy but feeling good vibes and enjoying listening to music.

Thank you!
Yes I do start at 1pm. Just arrived and got my pre-shift drinks!

That's good. Just be careful!

Enjoyment and luck Cacoethes.

Don't overdo it lr.

I've got period pains and I asked the nurse for painkillers, he was like, you'll have to wait a bit. A bit???

Hate it when they say 'in a bit!'
Keep reminding them. Guarantee they will forget!

Am trying super hard to pace myself. Might still be zoomy but am at least a bit less agitated with it today.

Trying to get painkillers in hospital can take an age.... Hope the bit turns out to be a short one Tamo.

A female hca made me a hot water bottle from a squash bottle and went and told the nurse i needed painkillers immediately!

#female solidarity

Good job that HCA!

Hi everyone.

Hope your shift goes well, Beckie.

Hope the good vibes continue, Jen.

Having your period in hospital is horrible! Glad the HCA got on the case, Tamo.

I managed to go to the garden centre for lunch. I had a roast dinner. Shattered now and feeling a bit more short of breath again but was so good to get out, especially after feeling too ill to go yesterday. I have even brought home a piece of cake to have as part of supper.

Nice to see you Lindsay, sending some o fthe good vibes your way.

Glad the HCA is being decent tamo!

Hey lindsay! Up to much today?

I'm glad you managed to get out jen

Work is ok thanks. Busy but means it's going quickly!
A ridiculous amount of cages to go out though. Apparently it's never been this bad!

My gorgeous Callie cat took her final breath in my arms yesterday, surrounded by love.

I'm so sorry for your loss beth <3

So sad, Beth. It's really hard to lose a pet but I'm glad at least you were there for her.

Sorry for your loss Beth.

Going out to lunch might have been a mistake. Had asthma attack had to call paramedics and they have taken me to AMU.

Sorry for your loss Ahimsa *hugs*

I'm glad you got out and about lr but sorry a&e is necessary :(

Actually on a ward the acute medical unit rather than A&E paramedics took me straight to ward. It's alright although not ideal.

Hello all. Sorry I am not doing so good today so I have no energy to reply. But I have read and care about people's tough times. Sending love.

Ah that's better lr!

Hey insig.

Thanks for love Dawn. Hope you feel better soon.

A bit calmer but less likelyhood of escape so a mixed bag.

Hope you manage to get out asap jen!

Sorry you're not doing great dawn. We're here if you need us!

Morning!

I have barely slept but it seems I am awake now.

Morning!
Oh that sucks!
Are you still in hospital?

Yeah. Up on the respiratory ward now. Waiting for whenever weekend ward round happens. I feel better than last night breathing wise but needed 2 nebulisers during the night so unsure if they will let me home today or not.

Hope work goes well today. Is today the 10:30am start?

Morning guys.

Sorry you're still in hospital lr, but good you're on the right ward!

Hi Tamo! How are you today?

Just saw doctor and they are letting me go home. Usually because I needed nebulisers overnight they would make me stay in for 24 hours to be safe but because hospital makes my FND worse and my chest sounds ok now they are letting me go.

Now the endless wait for meds and discharge papers begins!

Yep 10:30am start today. Then off until Friday!

Morning tamo. How are you?

I'm glad they're letting you go jen.
Hospital is not a vibe!

Morning everyone.

Glad you're getting home, Jen. Hope they are surprisingly quick with sorting things out for a change.

How are you, Tamo?

Hope work is going well, Beckie and you enjoy your days off.

Hospital is never a vibe. Still waiting around for now
Partner is here with me so as soon as have meds and paperwork we can scarper.

Hope your shift is going well Beckie.

Hey Lindsay how are you doing?

Get your roller-skates on Jen for a super speedy departure!

I'm not good. Just trying to ignore myself because if I tried to get support from anywhere I would be dismissed.

Think I wills stick to a wheelchair don't want to end up back in hospital due to a roller skating accident XD

Sending hugs if you would like them Lindsay. I think it's worth trying to seek support because not getting it because they dismiss you is almost the same as not getting it because you don't seek it. Although I get being dismissed can be disheartening.

At least get your partner to (carefully) run while pushing the wheelchair!

Thanks for the hugs. It often makes me feel worse to be dismissed. Was about to phone Duty but decided not to.

Thanks guys! Going ok so far.

Being dismissed is a horrible feeling, I remember it well. You can always reach out here, though I know it isn't the same <3

Roller skating probably isn't the greatest idea! XD

My partner did indeed run while pushing the wheelchair. XD Have just made it to the car. So home soon.

I get that it could make you feel worse *shakes fist at Lindsay's CMHT*

I'm glad you're free lr.

Sorry you don't feel it's worth reaching out osc. Sending hugs if wanted.

I'm ok thanks. I'm glad your shift is going well.

Glad your shift is going ok, Beckie.

Hope you can get comfy and rest and do something nice at home, Jen.

Glad you're ok, Tamo. Have you had any visitors today?

People who have spoken to my CPN on Duty say they find him dismissive too. It's hard not to have a supportive CPN when I don't really have anyone else.

Is it kind of nice to know it's not just you osc?

My mum visited this morning :) I might not get a visit tomorrow but she's going to try to come to my ward rounds on Tuesday.

I hope she can come to your ward round and it is helpful to have her there.

No, it doesn't feel nice to know it's not just me. It shows he's not going to change.

Hmmmm. Maybe you can gently mould him into the cpn who would be helpful?

Edit
Is that the correct mould?

Evening Friends!

Just woke up from a 3 hour post hospital nap. Probably more sleep than I got the whole of last night while in the hospital
