Grief & loss - may be triggering

Re: Grief & loss - may be triggering


Oh hi @Adge, sorry to hear your so sick. Big telepathetic hug 💜 You need to keep warm, drink soups & tea and rest. Take Monday off, go back to Dr, they often don't do anything 'till the second visit as a rule. Viruses can go bacterial ns need antibiotics. Take time off work while you have medical reason. Not good for the Budger but you need to care for you ♨

Yesterday I wrote a lovely long reply post for you here, but lost it and got discouraged then forgot. Sorry ❤❤❤

I have been thinking of you. Often when i I hear a bird I wanna jump on line and tell you, especially if its unusual - Like this morning a large flock of Corella flew over, they have a softer squark call than cockatoo.

I see your likes about the foruns and glad youre doing that.

nd hey, stay - stayaway from chocolate s and milk products when you have a respiratory tract infection, or a cold.

Today I wanted to come online and tell someone on the planet, probably here on this thread: "I just want her to come home! I've waited so long, why won't she come home?" Not that you need to hear it while you're sick. I'll be fine 💜💜💜

You take care my forum brother 🌷🌿 🐦🐥

Re: Grief & loss - may be triggering

Thanks @Former-Member I would so love it if our lost loved ones could come home...

I'm going back to the Dr again, since I've got much worse over the past 3 days. Don't know if I'll have any better luck this time.

I so need to do my bird aviaries today, yet I haven't got any energy.

I can "like" posts ok on my computer it seems - but I've not been able to like any posts on my mobile phone for days, it won't let me. That technical glitch you mentioned is still going on.

Re: Grief & loss - may be triggering

I found out today that Ruah, my Personal Helpers & Mentors Program (MH Support Worker) have not subtracted the 3 months time spent waiting for a new worker, when the first personal left after only one appointment.

They had promised that any time (3 months) spent waiting for a new worker, would not be included in the the 2 years allowed. I spent 12 months on the waiting list, before that.

Now they've told me that the service will end in October, 3 months earlier than I expected (or was told).

That's quite a shock, as we have not achieved our job-search or social goals yet.

I didn't see this coming.

Disappointing @Adge, guess we have to consider we could be on our own, so to speak, at the drop of a hat. Maybe you can put your goals up here and we can help you along. Not today, having trouble getting out of bed again, keep falling g asleep, but gotta try. Have a good day 🙂

Re: Grief & loss - may be triggering

You OK @Adge? Do ya have to work tomorrow?

Re: Grief & loss - may be triggering

Thanks @Former-Member
Still so dopey & sick though slowly recovering I think.
Went back to Dr yesterday avo (3rd time in one week).
He said take today Wednesday off too until getting properly recovered.
Goto lie down now.
I'm sorry you've been having a rough time the last few days.

Re: Grief & loss - may be triggering

I'm sorry you are feeling so crook @Adge

 

The flu does that to you - it is a serious illness that really knocks your socks off

 

Take the time to recover - and I am thinking of you

Re: Grief & loss - may be triggering

Lovely post @Owlunar, and like your little pictures. Thank you @Adge, i'm ok now now, sorry, just get emotional or something, all things pass. Glad your GP is supportive, rest up my friend, get some sunshine if possible, lots of vegies, soup... I bought a new crock pot yesterday, no excuses now, just chuck everything in and 🍜tea is done - yummo! Take care 🌷🌿💜

 Had a great pic post on Grief but still got serious issues to an' upload pictures. It says

"Grief is NOT a disorder, disease or weakness. It is an emotional, physical, spiritual necessity. The price we pay for love. The only cure for grief is yo Grieve" ~ Earl Grollman

Re: Grief & loss - may be triggering

Thanks @Owlunar

Thanks @Former-Member Your new croc pot sounds like a good idea.

Yeah I definitely need something to cuddle up to for comfort, like that teddy bear in the picture.

The longer that I'm ill, the more it seems to knock my confidence.

This virus & infection came so soon after my last recovery (only 6 weeks earlier)...

I had some more jokes that I wanted to write on the joke thread - but I clean forgot what they were, & I still haven't remembered them yet (to be able to write).

Re: Grief & loss - may be triggering

Don't worry @Adge, yyou'll bounce back physically soon enough, the body does that. Know what ya mean about confidence though, I've spent the last week floundering and havethe shop tomorrow. Not sure if I'm up to it but with confidence issues (heart&mind) we do have to push through. But when your physically better Adge. The crock pot is only $22 at bigW atm - makes soups easier, safer lol
