Thank you Leigh, I'm really sorry. I replied and it was so long I figured it probably was more appropriate as it's own thread. I did see my GP, last week, but it's not actually helped and I don't feel deserving or able to go back or contact the MH services when I am essentially in Limbo there, a patient with no contact but not discharged. Idk. I don't know with the anxiety, possibly the flashbacks but honestly it feels and seems to be coming out of nowhere.
I spent the weekend with my boyfriend, which was lovely, but he made me very anxious with something he said that I don't really want to go into at the moment. And my Masters interview is next Wednesday and I'm absolutely terrified.
PEOPLE!! It's been so quiet in here, it's nice to see you :P
Leigh the tattoo sounds cool! How are you doing?
Ritzi I'm sorry you're feeling so crappy love. I really think you should go back to your dr or contact your cpn (you still have your cpn right?) because they are there to help you and yit sounds like you need help and you definitely deserve it, so kick up a fuss if you have to! You've had such a lot to deal with, and I wish I knew something to suggest but I am always, always here if you need someone. Is therea nything that helps with anxiety, flashbacks etc? Look after yourself as much as you can <3
I'm sorry you're not doing great Ali. We are here if you do want to talk about what your boyfriend said, or is it worth talking to him about if it's upset you? Being scared about your interview is completely natural but I'm sure you'll do fine - just make sure you're prepared, maybe practice with someone if you can etc. Try to take care of yourself!
Ali, you're very welcome to PM, I'm okay enough to try and be of help. <3
I don't know honestly if I still have a CPN. I'm not officially discharged from the MH services at all, but I don't really feel as though I'm a patient anymore, which is fine, I'm probably better off without it. I don't know. I might contact the RCC but that seems to be involving a huge leap of faith and courage that I just don't have. I'm sorry for being so useless posting and whining.
Oh Ritzi you're not being useless or whining at all. I'm sorry things are so **** and I am glad that you've been able to come and talk about it a little. Sorry I don't know, what is RCC? (I keep thinking roman catholic church but I'm sure it isn't that :P) I believe that you have that faith and courage, I really do. Is there anyone, a friend or anything who could perhaps support you in asking for help? Lots of love coming your way <3
Ali, you are very welcome! I cannot promise to say anything useful but always happy to listen!

Healthy eating is good Heather! I hope the meal plan thing helps. Also sorry I wasn't around when you got back on fb last night, I had to go to the library. How are you doing?
Heather, healthier eating is brilliant. How're you feeling? *hug*
It's the Rape Crisis Centre, and I could theoretically ask someone to go with me. I'll think about asking someone. =/ Roman Catholic Church made me lol though, so thank you :) Thank you so much for the love.
Thank you to all of you so so very much. *cuddles*
Oops, sorry, I should have realised! That sounds like a really good step to take, I can only imagine how scary it would be but lovely, you are SO strong to have got through as much as you have and I have every faith that you can do it if you decide you want to. Asking someone to go with you might be god, just for some moral support and someone to be with you afterwards. I would zip over there and go with you if I could <3
Oooh the tat sounds awesome Leigh, I expect pics once it's done. How are you anyways?
Ali I am sorry your not doing so great, feel free to PM if you need. Good luck for your interview too
Ritzi I am sorry things are so tough but I do think you should get in contact with someone so you can get some extra support. Also you do deserve it hun. Here if you need anything
Heather healthier eating sounds good, how are you doing?
"Recovery is something that you have to work
on every single day and it's
something that doesn't
get a day off."
Ritzi I think getting into contact with someone would be a good idea. You have had an extremely stressful time and you've been through so much and you've made it this far, you are strong! But asking for help isn't a bad idea.
Kat, glad your doing ok..sorry about the headache..hope it goes soon.
Star, how are you doing today?
I am cold. Still in bed..need to be at work soon..haven't showered not going to. I just wanna stay here forever but I can't.
Life can be beautiful if you let it.
Step back, breathe and take it in
