How are you feeling today?

[cornish]

I guess you have to look at it that they're all things there to help you.

hmm suppose so.
how you doing at the moment ??

and what's the early intervention team?

How are you feeling having not taken your anti-psych meds, or have you taken them now?

not really sure, just know there highly specialized with a few of my problems.

taken them so i should pass out fairly soon.

[cornish]

oh and its something to do with getting help early on with psychotic problems as i have more chance of recovery.  hmmm at least a year too late then 

[Lol]

Alstare is right. High specialisation watching out for you has got to be a good thing!? Are you working over this weekend?

It's ridiculous that they have come in so 'un early!!!!!' Is it expected that they can still help? 

[cornish]

suppose so

nope i cant work any weekends for a little while as i did so much overtime, im 2 months ahead of schedule on one job and cant do any more and about 3 weeks ahead on another job so not much available.


i have no idea really, im just a bit pissed off with the nhs as until 2 weeks ago i didn't have a cpn and i should have been assigned on from the start. so thats late and he.s only really seeing my problems now, not that ive been basically F****D for some where between a year and a half and 2 years now.

Personally Cornish I'm in the exact opposite position again with no care team support at the moment as I've been "Inbetween" teams for a month now. So I can only contact a duty worker or the crisis team.  

[Lol]

Gosh guys what an awful state of affairs!!

Cornish I just can't believe this. Your psychologist who you really like, am I right that you only have a limited amount of appointments left with her? so they are discontinuing something/the only thing you believe to be working, and giving you something else you should have had all along but 2 years too late down the line!?!?!  "£"

The way the NHS  deals with people with mental illness would be a joke if it wasnt so seriously  messing woth people's lives 

[Alstare1974]

Feeling  "£"

[cornish]

Do you know the feeling not to be able to do the most basic things such as getting dressed right, having the right clothes available, doing the necessary chores and social interaction? Can't help but feeling I'm looking and behaving awful without being able to do much against it. Good morning to all of you nonetheless  &*(

[Zaf]

Good morning BladeRunner (and everyone else of course) :)

Yes I know the feeling well, as thought my brain is full of cotton wool or I 'm thinking through fog

So far this morning I've felt overwhelmed (totally unecessary), calm (walking dogs), worried (one dog seems to be limping), angry (finding the sharp sticks that were remnants of the inconsiderate b@$]@%€s that terrified the horses and dogs on Sunday with fireworks flying over our property, now I'm back in I'm not entirely sure how I feel, I have to go into town, plan to visit two elderly friends on the way back then I'll have to do some urgent stuff in the office, want to do some cooking then hopefully I'll have time to do a little yoga practice and meditation.

I'd rather curl upin the warm with a book but think its time I went to blitz the kitchen first....

[BladeRunner]

You seem to work a lot with your animals (which seem to be quite a lot *g*), I guess that's exhausting but rewarding work. Would like to have or tend to an animal myself maybe one day, but up to now it's never worked out.

I think that nature is trying to tell me something today, Woke up feeling like this  !"! and then got both my referral letter and medical bracelet through the post this morning.

How is everyone else doing this morning
smirfy :)

[BladeRunner]

And this is good because you now can begin treatment?  :) Sorry, I don't really know yet how all medical things work in Britain. 

[smirfy21]

well all it means is that my GP referral to the mental health team is being asessed by the specialist team and hopefuly I will be given an appointment with one of the specialists to talk about my Bipolar Disorder and how to go ahead with treatment, they will probably want to carry out an assessment of their own aswell.

getting my medical bracelet is good because it means people will stop assuming I am drunk or completely high because I can show them the medical bracelet.
