Hi Tommy get better soon
I go for my flu jab tomorrow been told o have to because of the stroke I had
Not over keen as it can bring on flu
In all my life the only time I had the flu was when I was faking to get out of school
But in truth I’ve never had the flu
Never had chicken pox not even when both my kids had it
I’m here for you Bruv
Here or text
Love to Sue and little Sammy

That’s unbelievable Keith.

So that’s what they do with Taxpayers money.

You would think that they would check these
things out before going and upsetting people.
SHOCKING.

Hey Keith
Did you read my thought for today yesterday
Quite profound I thought.

Hi Keith police does not surprise me years ago some low life torched our shed when I asked for ins no. Dci said I don’t know if it’s a crime as you have gas bottles, paint tins, and terps so I told him I, m a plumber and dad who never quarrels said where do you keep your old paint tins under the ****in bed right on cue fire chief called and said it was arson so no surprise to me thanks for being there going to have a music night mam, s OK and sending you her regards

Tommy trouble maker :spoon:

ok i’m back.
needless to say emotional anxiety ( is there any other?) has the effect of paralysing me: be a wife, mother, daughter………all mean that I spend much of my time worrying.
Firstly thoughts go out to all those having a shit time.
Some background info: although we live in Lossiemouth my husband has been working as a teacher at Westminster School for the past 6 years. This has involved me living on my own most of the time. The job comes with a superb flat just behind Westminster Abbey which we have greatly enjoyed. However, having 2 18year old cats has meant that I have been up here with shares in easyjet.
Sadly the cats were put down in August: methinks now I can live longer spells in London…
Our daughter graduated with a 1st in Psychology inn June from Stirling and decided to do a Masters at king’s London My husband is retiring early ( to look after me) and we thought bingo, all 3 together for a last year in the flat.

Not to be.

I felt so trapped. We could not sleep. I could not do anything, second floor…lift to first floor then stairs.

I became severely unwell. 6 years ago I was fitter. I could not move and just went downhill very fast.
Decision time:
I am back in Lossie. Hubby flies back down tomorrow/today.
Saying goodbye to my daughter and him has been heartbreaking……it may only be for a wee time in the bigger picture, but hey,
am crying as I type…
am no good when it comes to those I love. My mum now 79 lives in Lossie, we lost my father 18months ago and it is all just too much…

Hi Lesley
Thank you for taking the time to reply and especially in your situation which ( should) be for the want of a better description ( privalaged) but however has obviously turned into the proverbial nightmare
Yet you take the time to sympathize with any of us having a bad time.
That alone speaks volumes about you being a caring person.
It seems to me your illness has got you very firmly wedged between a rock and a hard place .
A very lonely even angry place.
I think I understand what you mean when you say you’re now waiting for your husband to retire and it’s just another short wait.
But that’s not entirely accurate because for you personally it’s a long long time.
Anxiety can be beaten with the proper help I say this as a person who has had an awfull time with it ( oh lucky you) you could easily be thinking.
But it is true it never disappears just gets put back in its box where it belongs.
If it was made to go away permanently we would be even more unwell as it comes from our fight or flight nature and may be called out of the box when needed.
I can guess you have had enough of doctors but the right anti anxiety drug is there you just have to be a calm patient .
When it doesn’t work have the attitude of oh well maybe the next one and so on.
I’m beginning to ramble now so I’ll stop before I annoy you if I haven’t already

I believe you are a not only a fighter but a winner.
Thanks again for sharing and caring .
Tommy

Morning Mrs. T firstly can I say that you have done the right thing in sharing your thoughts with us as just talking about things is a help some might think our little clan is nuts but in my case I have found 3 brilliant people who are way more than just friends we all have bad days but are always here for each other and I include you in that also as Tommy said there is medication to help you since I have had pd and more so since dad died last November (I was caring for him 24/7) my anxiety got worse I started taking cbd oil for sleep problems and noticed my anxiety improved so much you can get it at Holland and barret check your other medication is safe first take care
Pete
