That's great to hear from you @WIP Have you found some success on the 'new' treatment? I've actually fallen in a heap since we last had contact (dropped 1 of 2 medications thinking I was ok & it made little difference). On the positive, I made a cheesecake last night with my 11yo when all I wanted to do was go to bed. Is it easier for you @WIP now COVID restrictions have eased?

Hi @Sam3 - it's great to hear from you too. I'm still
plodding along day to day, but I have finally found a great psychologist (after a year persisting), whom I feel will be able to help me with all my current and past issues. It'll be a lot of hard work on my behalf, but I've never been afraid of hard work.
Im really, very sorry you aren't doing so well. Adjusting your meds isn't a good idea - although, I do it all the time, as my pdoc wants me off the anti anxiety meds that I take too much of and have for too long.
homemade cheese cake - yum!' Well done on that.
Was is only the change of meds that contributed to you going downhill, or another trigger?
Lifted restrictions are good, but I don't have any friends to visit or work to go to, so that's something I need to work on in 2021
Hugs
🌼🌸🌺🥰

@Sans911 are you feeling better than me?! Any work (volunteer or otherwise) options yet? Anything you need to hear from me/others that might be helpful?

@Faith-and-Hope who are the baby dragons?!
Can you please help me to want me keep going when I have lots of avoidance, self-disgust & no motivation? I don't feel like most others do & I don't want to try/bother with anything. I'm locked in a negative cycle of self-obsession when I need to focus on others believing tiny actions even done mechanically are ok.

@Faith-and-Hope @Snowie Can finally sit down and relax. All shopping done and my present to my sister just arrived ...I was really hoping it would today but resigned to it probably not getting here in time so I am super happy. I still have some working around to do with my Dad's present but can do that later. I am making a collage of sorts of all the horses he has owned in the shape of a harness racing horse and driver - and framing it for him. I have done it in the colours his driver wears but think it looks better in black and white so I may do both and give him the option ....not sure so going to sit on it and decide later.
@Faith-and-Hope I really hope the next few days with your baby dragons and family are filled with joy, happiness and hope - not just hope for a great future for your bds and baby dragon junior but also for you Hon - you deserve all that is good in this world coming your way. Take the time to enjoy every single minute you have with all your family and bask in the love they have for you. This is a time to feel that love and support - so do not worry about us here at all - we will of course be thinking of you but knowing you are with your family finally is the greatest gift of all. Please send my best wishes and love to all your bds and an extra squishy hug to you - love you sweetheart and so happy you are spending this time with everyone important to you ![]()
