Still not great.

How are you doing?

tamobhuuta 08-08-2024 08:26 PM

Sorry to hear that. I'm ok, the staff here are lovely but I really don't want to be here.

tamobhuuta 09-08-2024 08:14 AM

I thought I posted here this morning...

Cacoethes 09-08-2024 08:36 AM

Morning everyone
Hey tamo
How are you?

tamobhuuta 09-08-2024 08:55 AM

Hi Cacoethes, I'm OK thanks. Just found a photo that has cheered me up, how are you?

Cacoethes 09-08-2024 09:26 AM

That's good!
I'm ok. Setting off for my blood test soon
Got lots to do today

tamobhuuta 09-08-2024 09:40 AM

Any fun amongst the busyness?

Cacoethes 09-08-2024 10:00 AM

Not particularly! Just errands and little jobs.
We go to Amsterdam tomorrow so have to get all the boring stuff done. Collect meds, stock up on stuff for the piggos, get some cash out in case our neighbour needs to get anything for them while we're away, get some gifts for my old neighbour to say thank you, pick up a bale of hay, clean out the piggos, get the washing pile cleared, do a bit of cleaning. Think that's it! At my nurse appointment now. L is getting her meds in another town while I'm here.
Oh and my CC will be calling at some point.
We're not going until late afternoon tomorrow, so will have time to do some bits and bobs tomorrow morning before we go.

Have you got anything to do today?
I saw you're going to have a bit of a tough day, so good luck with everything. We'll be here for support <3

tamobhuuta 09-08-2024 11:01 AM

Thanks :) my meds have been sorted so I won't have to retitrate my clozapine! I think I will listen to some eminem.

Cacoethes 09-08-2024 12:30 PM

That's good! Pain in the arse medication to titrate!
Good plan!

tamobhuuta 09-08-2024 01:05 PM

On the way to the ward. Not happy! How are your jobs going?

Cacoethes 09-08-2024 01:22 PM

Hopefully it'll be a short admission. I know hospital sucks though

Not too bad thanks!
Had my blood test and ecg, booked smear test, been to asda, got my meds, got cash out and wrote a list for the neighbour that's looking after the piggos.
Just need to drop off the stuff for my old neighbour later because she wasn't in earlier, pick up the hay and clean out the piggos. Have to wait for the repair people to come first though because they're fixing a problem with part of the ceiling. They're coming between 12-5pm.
Oh and I need to call to book a gp appointment and my CC is going to call. And I called the DVLA to see if I need to do anything else or if they'll just send me the medical questionnaire again, in case I needed another form. My application was scanned in today so I should get that through the post soon.

one_step_closer 09-08-2024 04:41 PM

Mad rush before your holiday, Beckie! Not that you're not usually in a mad rush (emphasising the mad :-p ) I hope you have lots of fun on your holiday.

Hope the admission goes smoothly, Tamo and you get home soon.

Cacoethes 09-08-2024 05:22 PM

Lol lindsay XD
Very true!
Everything is done now!

Have you been up to much today?

one_step_closer 09-08-2024 06:31 PM

Well done. Are you able to take some time to relax this evening?

I didn't have much to do today so I went on the bus to a nearby town but there were so many roadworks and I didn't even buy anything nice so it felt like a waste of time.

Cacoethes 09-08-2024 06:33 PM

Yeah, we will when S goes to bed :)

I don't think it was a waste of time! Getting out is good in itself!

one_step_closer 09-08-2024 06:37 PM

Does he go to bed at a set time? Will you watch a film or some proper TV not Paw Patrol this time?!

I know. It just passed a lot of time.

Cacoethes 09-08-2024 11:04 PM

He generally goes to bed around 8pm
Watching Shaun of the dead and definitely not paw patrol!

Passing time can be good!

Cacoethes 10-08-2024 09:52 AM

Morning everyone!

tamobhuuta 10-08-2024 10:18 AM

Morning Cacoethes, how are you?

Cacoethes 10-08-2024 10:24 AM

I'm ok thanks.
9 hours until my flight to Amsterdam! So excited!

How are you?

tamobhuuta 10-08-2024 10:53 AM

Oo exciting, I hope you have fun! I'm ok, having a little lie down.

Cacoethes 10-08-2024 10:57 AM

Thank you!

I'm glad you're resting. Rest can be really helpful when things aren't great.
I hope the staff are treating you ok

tamobhuuta 10-08-2024 11:53 AM

There was some pretty intense contact with staff while they were booking me in yesterday, but now they're leaving me alone.

Ahimsa 10-08-2024 12:04 PM

Morning everyone,

Tamo, I hope your admission goes okay.

Beckie, how exciting!

Cacoethes 10-08-2024 12:23 PM

They probably just need to see where you're at if they don't know you that well. They should warm up to you, you're a lovely person!

Morning beth!
How are you?

It is exciting! Buzzing!

tamobhuuta 10-08-2024 01:14 PM

Hi Ahimsa, how are you?

one_step_closer 10-08-2024 01:58 PM

Hi everyone.

How can you wait for so long, Beckie! I know it's just hours now but the last little bit is the hardest! I hope you have a lovely time.

I hope you can get some rest and positive treatment, Tamo.

Hi Beth, how are you?

tamobhuuta 10-08-2024 02:06 PM

Hi osc, how are you?

not_so_insig 10-08-2024 02:07 PM

Hello all.

one_step_closer 10-08-2024 02:08 PM

Not doing good. Don't feel like I can reach out to anyone. My CPN just tells me I make a big deal of things so maybe I'm just making a big deal of things again.

How are you getting on?

tamobhuuta 10-08-2024 02:10 PM

I'm doing ok. Hating every second but ok! Sorry you're struggling and you don't feel taken seriously. What are your options?

not_so_insig 10-08-2024 02:11 PM

Sorry you're not so good Lindsay.

not_so_insig 10-08-2024 02:17 PM

Glad you're ok tamobhuuta

tamobhuuta 10-08-2024 02:17 PM

How are you insig?

not_so_insig 10-08-2024 02:23 PM

Apart from being itchy and a bit groggy I am ok. Dunno why I am tired I had over 13 hours sleep.

tamobhuuta 10-08-2024 02:32 PM

How odd. Are you coming down with something?

not_so_insig 10-08-2024 02:40 PM

I have been a bit more sneezy the last couple of days so maybe I am. Will test for covid just in case but I doubt it is that.

tamobhuuta 10-08-2024 03:35 PM

Fingers crossed for you.

Cacoethes 10-08-2024 04:57 PM

Sorry you're not feeling great lindsay
I don't think you make a big deal of things.
Your cpn sounds like a bit of an idiot tbh!

We are at the airport!

one_step_closer 10-08-2024 06:08 PM

Left the airport yet, Beckie?

Cacoethes 10-08-2024 06:12 PM

Nope!
Flight isn't until 8:10pm
Just got here super early, of course!
Find out the gate number in about an hour.

one_step_closer 10-08-2024 06:20 PM

What are you doing to amuse yourself while you wait? Waiting is the worst!

Cacoethes 10-08-2024 06:33 PM

We had dinner and got a couple of drinks.
Just been chatting and listening to music!

What are you up to?

tamobhuuta 10-08-2024 07:53 PM

Hey guys. I'm bored. They won't let me practice jumping off my window sill.

Cacoethes 10-08-2024 09:59 PM

They tend not to like stuff like that tbh!

We have arrived in Amsterdam. The flight was 40 mins!
I think the passport queue was longer than that XD

tamobhuuta 10-08-2024 10:00 PM

I hope you have an excellent time!

Cacoethes 10-08-2024 11:28 PM

Thank you!

Cacoethes 11-08-2024 06:31 AM

Morning everyone

tamobhuuta 11-08-2024 08:59 AM

Morning Cacoethes how are you?
