The Weekly Friday Feast

Hi @Angels333 being commited to getting well and going to your appointments is a good thing, not selfish as when you are doing better those who you love and who love you (family? friends? I don't know your situation) will be happy too, for you and with you.  Being commited to therapy is not a failing in my opinion, but a step towards more success and stability.  Wishing the best for you.

I hear you @Angels333...

I often feel like a failure.

My psychiatrist's receptionist didn't book me in when I asked her to on the 27th & instead has me in for the 5th of May. I didn't see her last month - I cancelled at the last minute, because the appointment was the day before my birthday. My psychologist is much more helpful, but I'm quickly running out of medicare funded appointments... I have private health insurance, which will help pay for some more partially. I wish I had more psychologist appointments. 

My anxiety is high too. Anyhow, you are not alone.

Sorry I don'I know what to say...

I hope you get some relief soon....

Namaste,

A

Thanks, I really try and bring some positivity to the forum but I failed my personal goals this week and my therapist has been talking about some pretty dark stuff, leaving me feeling numb and angry. I wish I could cry but there's nothing, no emotion just empty. I hope seeing him Monday helps.

And yes, I really would like to be hospitalised.

I hope your dr admits you then @Angels333...

I have to go to bed now...

Hugs @Angels333

Namaste,

I need to go to bed now too.  @Angels333 you just have to get through til Monday then and tell your Dr clearly how you feel.  In the meanwhile remember to be gentle with yourself and use slow, deep breathing to get through anxiety periods.  I find a good book (library is free!) takes my mind off my problems and helps pass the waiting time.  Talk to me onthe Night Shift thread in Enjoying time with others in the meanwhile if you want to.  I'll check in there over the weekend.

Goodnight all.

Hello @Angels333, how are you today ??

I am very sorry if I upset you last night , I didn`t mean too upset anyone

[Angels333]

Hi @Shaz51 no one has upset me at all I just had a bad night, I felt terrible. It's Saturday today, so I hope to just get into some housework and hold on until I see my Dr on Monday. I am so grateful for everyone on the forum putting up with me.

[Shaz51]

Good morning @eth, that is very good advice ,I have learnt that more communication is very important with the doctors

Hope your day is going good

[Shaz51]
