I managed to go out again today, which turned out to be over 5 hours as we had to go to various places. It's hard for me sometimes to be out purely because people look at me. It's my fault, I have very brightly coloured hair. In a way though it helps, I used to think people looked at me funny anyway so at least now I can justify it! It's hard when random people come up to me though to talk about it. I spent money while out, too much money. But we went round a shop that had horse things and I really miss having a horse and getting to buy stuff for it, so when we got to Tesco I bought some things to cheer myself up. No more shopping for 2 weeks now, I must be good. Also realised trying on some shorts that I've really put on weight, so that has to be sorted. So I feel guilty for a few reasons.

Looking at a local horse site I saw an advert for somebody who wants a sharer for their horse starting in January, battling with myself about emailing them. I've no guarantee I'll have the money in January but it'd help me have a goal to keep going if I had the prospect of a horse share.

The first thing I did when I came home was going on this site, it's good to feel like a human who can interact with others!

If you think things can't get worse it's probably only because you lack sufficient imagination.

feeling a bit messed up, my whole body feels numb but also like ive taken a huge beating and i feel like uhhh i dunno, like everything is far away and im watching my self from above, got horrific stomach cramps but more in my kidney type area, ive had a small amount of pain in that area once or twice in the past few days and my head ache is worse than ever and so is the numbness in my left hand. had some sleeping tablets a few hours ago and a few diazepam and i just dont feel like im still wide awake but not in my body.   dont understand this, ive taken my meds properly, ive had no less sleep than normal and ive eaten a bit more than normally, only thing different is knowing i wouldn't be working the weekend and just relaxing today i suppose.

theres more but i dont want or fell too comfortable talking about now. also i dont want to worry anyone

Definitely well done for getting through today cornish :)

The sympoms you describe might be the stress of not working but if they persist you ought to try to get to see your GP

Yes, at least half way there :)

Just keep counting down and hopefully it will be over quicker than you think, by lunchtime it'll be 3/4 the way over :)

Its good to have a goal, if you cant afford to share why not find someone that is offering rides for help or similar?

I've managed to email them, and I might be meeting the horse in a few days! My partner even offered to work an extra shift so I can do the share, if I don't have a job by January I give up though. Reading and replying to the emails I was physically shaking, I hate how my body reacts to things. My boyfriend knows a few people with horses so I will kick his bum to speak to them. I'm not even tired, in bed on the laptop and considering giving up and going downstairs  >:(

Cornish it's pretty much 3 hours in now  ;D

Thats great, hopefully something will turn up for you, what sort of horse is this one?

I got up around half one, with a bit of luck I'll fall asleep watching TV, it often works for me for some reason

I'm sure she'll understand, if you cant get hold of her could you phone NHS direct or would that be too difficult to speak to them?

He's a 15.3, 9year old, a cob and apparently bombproof as the lady wanted a horse her son could ride. My loan horse was cob mare who I swear stood on your foot on purpose. She had so many issues but I loved her so much. It would be nice to be able to sit in a field with a horse again. Plus I had a weird love for poo picking.

She'll understand, it's worth a try to get hold of her. I hope you manage it. Sorry you're having a bad night  :(
