Am Not Coping

Re: Am Not Coping

Thank you for letting us know @Zoe7 ..... are you sure you're okay ?

 

I have been working on my painting tonight as we have been chatting .... but now I need to go and try to sleep.  We are going to a music performance tomorrow night .... at least some of us.  S2 is still suffering social phobia, and although he is going at it like a bull at a gate, WH is worried about him and doesn't want to leave him on his own to mope ... not that I think he would, but I think WH is superimposing how he would behave onto his son, and feels bound to keeping him company .... and now D3 has opted to join them.

So, they are heading off to the movies, and we are going to see the singer.

On Saturday. I am going to visit my Dad in the country for a few days.  I will have my phone to stay in touch with .... 

 

Whoops .... iPad ran out of battery .....

 

S2 was back at the pdoc today, and this time WH went in ..... When they came home, S2 started to discuss the apt in the kitchen, and mentioned that while he (S2) has OCD tendencies, the pdoc told WH that he (WH) has OCPD traits ..... This is showing up what I thought was the underlying problem, but only from a few days ago when I looked at OCPD as opposed to OCD .....

Next week the pdoc wants to see WH and me.

 

If you are sure you are okay @Zoe7, I will try to sleep.  I need to try to finish this painting tomorrow so that it dries in time to transport.

Re: Am Not Coping

@Faith-and-Hope Next week is going to be huge - and most likely really confronting for WH (not that I suspect he will accept anything that is said - not straight away anyway). I suspect it is going to get alot harder for you too as this process plays out. Here with you Hon Heart

I will be ok - have had this happen before so I know what is happening now. It really scared me the first time it happened - and that was on the minimum prescribed dose. Once I 'ride out' the fainting feeling and/or am sick then it is just dealing with the continued nausea until I can lie down again. 

Keep me updated on how you are going with your painting tomorrow (if you have time). Anytime I hear from you makes my day - and at the moment I can do with all the happy moments I can get Heart

Sleep well sweetheart...

Re: Am Not Coping

Can you add to the special interest threads @Zoe7 ..... like feel good moments (images that make you smile that you think others will like) .... I love cats, but you love Toby, so maybe finding dog antics will help to keep you distracted ?

Or there is the art thread.  I look up things like fancy biscuits and cupcakes to see how creative people can be.  Or beautiful gardens, or handcrafts ..... or beautiful beaches and mountains .....

If you're not okay, I will stay with you till I fall asleep Hon .... tell me, okay ?

Re: Am Not Coping

As usual I just need to make it through until daylight @Faith-and-Hope - have GP app tomorrow but have nearly lost my voice so might need to write her notes - just another thing to add to the list hey!

I thought these were gorgeous .....
