Something’s not right

Changing meds

Re: Changing meds

Big gentle hug @WIP I am so sorry that the pain is so bad for you every day. All I can say is I do understand and send you a big loving hug.

Re: Changing meds

It's just so difficult and painful @Eve7 

 

I'm running out of strength doing this all on my own.

Re: Changing meds

It’s exhausting when pain is so difficult @WIP  I am still here with you listening and crying about this wretched illness.

 

🤗😢🤗

Re: Changing meds

Thank you @Eve7 

On one hand it's comforting to know that you understand how I feel and what I'm going through, but on the other hand, I hate knowing that you understand and feel the same.

 

I've just got no hope. I've tried so many different medications and therapies and after two excruciating years of being like this everyday, I don't care about myself anymore.
It wouldn't matter if I wasn't here.

 

You know, my sister actually text me and said I'm surprised you haven't done anything to yourself yet, I expect you to given how difficult your life is😢😢

@Anastasia 

A got a win this afternoon & contacted my health fund. They have agreed to waiver the $500 excess, given it's so close to the anniversary date and I thought it was June 30th.

 

And thanks to your advice, I'll be swapping over to HCF who offer no excess - as soon as I feel a bit more stable and think I'll be able to see out their 2 month waiting period on psychiatric hospital admissions.

 

I feel better. I've actually achieved something......

Re: Changing meds

I'm so happy @WIP don't underestimate that win. Go you xox

 

Thank you for sharing 😊

Re: Changing meds

Thanks @Anastasia 

 

Do the Sydney 'stay at home' (lockdown) rules affect you and your family?

Re: Changing meds

No thank goodness. Still very anxious due to it though, as it's all around us and I work with some that it does. Feel like Bat girl leaving the house with my super powers and Cape

@WIP 

My boys sw is locked down from midnight tonight 😔

 

Re: Changing meds

I understand your anxiety around the lockdown @Anastasia  We are sort of pros at it here in Melbourne. As long as everyone does the right thing, its less stressful.  Your premier has handled things so very well.

Re: Changing meds

My boy is supposed to be going to Queensland. Crossing every ounce of my being he gets there. We have a week for things to improve so borders will hopefully open 🙏 @WIP
