 . I’m feeling better for it.
I’ve been ok, shaky in the mornings so have been taking a tablet when I notice it and then I’m mostly good for the rest of the day.
Got a new surgery date for my son and within an hour, despite feeling mentally ok, my physical anxiety symptoms started - it just shows how powerful the u*conscious (the forum doesn’t allow the full word!) mind is. This was the point I also realised how much better my anxiety had been since the surgery was cancelled.
Had a busy few days which is good because I’ve realised how much better I am when I’m busy and distracted.
How are you today? | |||

"Hi OP glad to hear you are getting there. Personally I'm always feeling lonely and sometimes depressed but after all the years I have learned to live with it. I was looking forward to retirement but that has been shelved due to the cost of living gone sky high. So I will just carry on regardless "Thank you x I’m sorry your plans have had to change, I imagine that would be pretty disappointing . Hopefully things won’t stay so tough for long for all of us x | |||

Hope you can manage to find some good enough distractions soon x | |||

"Hi OP and regular posters and readers. Had another strange week for emotions. Definitely influenced by the weird behaviour of others. I so often take the stance, it’s not them it’s me, but this time I’m aware it’s not me, it’s them! That said I made a new friend on another site and have dragged him over here. I got muted on the forum for 48 hours this week! I giggled but I accept I did a bad thing. Even tho my intentions were right. Sleep has been horrific and I’ve had to work hard to flip back into daytime mode. Biggest failure was attempting to go back to work yesterday (I’ve been off with the bad ankle injury) but somehow my pass has been locked out and I need to do a course to get it unblocked. Next course weds! So no work for me yesterday or today. Hugs to all in need x " Hello you! The work situation sounds like a nuisance! Not long to wait though. As far as other people go it’s always good to remember that people project out what’s going on inside them! Hope you manage to get some decent sleep soon x | |||

"I hope your grounding techniques help you with the upcoming surgery anxiety Lou x I have had a mental 4 day weekend and although I enjoyed every single second of it, it's time to come back down to reality. So lots of meditation planned for tomorrow over the different individual senses, so I can pull myself together and focus on getting back to work and the new challenges it presents "Thank you! Enjoy your meditation day! I’ve signed up for a gong bath in September! Not sure how much I believe in it but going with an open mind to see  x | |||

"Hi Lou, i hope you have a good week and everything is ok xx I've had a dreadful week, as has hubby, but he's agreed to phone the docs and get an appointment, he even took half a day off work last week, we went out to eat cake, and seems to have agreed to take tomorrow off work, i'm so pleased. We have some dreadful family trauma but are being supported by our daughter and her family, i want to keep them safe and stress free though. We also have a few very close friends who are supporting us too. We are very thankful "I’m sorry to hear you’ve been having such a difficult time. I’m glad you have a support network in place. I hope your husband managed to get an appointment xx | |||

"Having to constantly kick myself up the arse to stop myself going sideways. The reliance on others for things like getting showered and the inability to get up/down to the loo is just frustrating and embarrassing. " I think independence is really important to us, I can imagine how that might get to you. Sending love xx | |||

"Glad you are doing better. As someone who's been at the worst possible point and the highest dose of medication. I've definitely been worse. But since a much needed holiday abroad in a hot country with a new group or mates. I've never felt so good. Only downside they live down south so can't alway see them. Energy levels for me have been hit and miss but that's down to a health issue. Medication side effects mostly. I've never felt better mentally and I'm hoping it stays this way." That’s so lovely to hear! x | |||
