Hi @Angels333 , blessings to u too!
I hope everything is going well for u back at work. How did u go with getting prn script, I hope u we're able to get it.
Uv done rly well to recover so quickly to be well enuf to get back to work. We're u in private or public hospital? How was ur experience? Obviously it was beneficial for u the fact that u r well enough to b back at work now.
I have just under 2 ,weeks to wait for private insurance to kick in. Rly hoping I can hold out til then. Each day feels like torture!
I hope ur SH thoughts are abating Angel, now that u r actually at work and not in that anxious state in the lead up to it.
Thinking of u and blessings to u also.
💜 Doglover

Hi @Doglover ,
I really hope you can last the two weeks. I hope it goes quickly for you.
My stay was in a private hospital. The nurses were great except that I was so unwell the experience was a little traumatic, they were going to schedule me at one stage and transfer me to the local public hospital. My Psychiatrist was very good and intervened.
Unfortunately the SH thoughts have been quite full on today, psychiatrist gave me the prn script which was good.
I'm really thinking about you @Doglover , the wait can be excruciating. Have you used the helplines when you need help?
I've been in public and private hospitals if you need to does your local public hospital have a short stay ward to give you some rest?
Check in tomorrow and let me know how you're feeling.

Good morning to all here. Lots of pages and tags for me to catch up on - I have time this morning to do so. Hope today is going well so far for all who read this. Take care.

@Bunniekins @Sophia1 @TAB @Teej @Former-Member @Faith-and-Hope @outlander @Owlunar @Gazza75 @MDT and all the others who've tagged me since Tuesday.
Had a support worker yesterday and the day before so I was busy out in the world. Water tai chi, chemist, writers group, psychologist (intense session there, exhausted afterwards) grocery shopping and catching up on things at home - so very glad for a day at home today. Started my day with editing and printing poems I've written and photos of my granddaughter looking incredibly cool with a new haircut, sunnies and scarf. Later I'll spend some time preparing for a meeting with my NDIS plan manager first thing tomorrow.
Some people call today the 'day out of time' - so I'm going to treat it as such. It's based on the Mayan 13 moon calendar - google it if you're interested. Spoiler - it's pretty cosmic! Something to do with how 52 weeks of 7 days in a year is actually 364 days in total, yet we have 365 by our current calendar. So today is said to be the extra one.
Have a gentle yet productive day all.

Hi @eth
Thanks for your newsy post - and the "day of out time" - I have always known that the figures never work out exactly right - it's also something to do with the lunar phases - and today is the day - right - and rather cosmic - I will have to look that up but that could be why I feel really spaced out today - it's all been a bit too much
I'm talking about the pain clinic - I am not a people pleaser but I also try and comply to professional directions - this can be stressful and I have reached a time in life when I think that I know my own body well enough to insist on what I think is working and my pain-specialist is agreeable enough but there was a certain degree of tension between us - I have another 8 month until I see her again and I can work on my own programme of current presciptions and cutting down.
It's exhausting - insisting on my own knowledge of how my body works - I try and be an agreeable person when I am insisting on my rights - I think it does work better socially but I am so tired right now - I think I might lie down for a while - I feel like a piece of elastic that has been stretched too far
Ouch

Just reflecting on my paranoid thoughts... thinking people out to get me and my family... and how it gets in the way of living life to the fullest ... you know-always looking over my shoulder ... always thinking I've done something wrong ... thinking people are watching me ... it was extremely bad when unwell; it hangs around, like a dark cloud over me...
