    I am tired even when I have a nice night sleep. I am laying down in bed watching TV. And I can not wait for night time to go to sleep...

    Sounds rough there @Schildpad have you had your vitamin D levels checked? Or iron?

    I think it'd be a shame to totally cut yourself off @Grumpy1314 who will you show your new gnomes to for a start! How're things going with the meds now? Have you been taking the antidepressants daily? I know, I'm sounding like a mother hen again. 😆

    I'm betting it'll be 9 teeth removed @Catherine21 the vets like to go quite hard on tooth removals, but it's worth it. The lil lady will be very happy she's had them out soon enough. 😁

    @Grumpy1314 I do understand you as i feel the same way.. i do not believe will be anyone there who cares for me but i have to make an effort to care for myself and do it for myself.. and no one else. i still believe there is something there for me to fight for . it is a hard life is not nice but i have to make an effort and wait in case good things will happen. i also have my phone off so i am not disturbed and watch telly all the time.. it has been on since this morning. and it will be on until i go to sleep…. sometimes is the phone but i have it on airplane and keep checking internet….. it depends… But there have to be hope. there must be hope…. i truly hope nice things will happen and that keeps me on…

    i am not sure i have vitamins sometimes.. maybe i should stick and have them on a daily basis. but i just feel pretty hopeless. i sometimes feel like i am better when i have to force myself to go to a place than stay at home.. i lately do not feel like going out if i do not have to.. it is a difficult situation. anyway tomorrow i have to go to another place so i will be a bit busy from 12.30 when i leave home until i get back home hopefully before 5 pm.

    monday is bank holiday so i will miss my monday gathering. i really not sure.. every day seems to be a struggle but i think i will feel worse if i do not leave home. i should have done so today but i just have no energy. i will try to keep my vitanims and have them as it could be i am not eating very well which is true… i just can not be bothered.

    @Grumpy1314

    It's funny as I can see myself in lots of what you write and I believe most of what you say is apt to be honest… I think people who would say otherwise are well meaning but don't (can't) empathise with your past experiences and stuff

    I only know you from like 5 posts but your posts tend to stand out and I'd consider it a loss if you weren't on here, for whatever that's worth

    i really have little hope from mental health team nor any other team .. in my case is mental and physical and none work. i just do not know what to do.. thinking more about natural medicine or trying not to have anything at all… i have been for a long time and none have been working. But i am considering a more natural approach. medication is not working or if it is is not working hundred per cent. anwyay… time to relax now.. or at least trying to until it is time to bed.

    sorry to hear this I have been poorly for a month and I have little hope in the GP finding anything because when I was in South Africa the hospital couldn't find anything wrong with me as I went down hill again after being treated for a UTI

    Oh @Catherine21 please try not to panic, she's bound to be in pain after having teeth out, but they'll be causing less pain in the long run, that cant have been comfortable having lots of nasty teeth in her mouth. She'll be ok, she's reacting like any of us would after a tooth extraction.

    @Grumpy1314 sorry to hear that, I know it can be very tricky living on your own at the best of times, but speaking from experience, it's often good for us to talk, even if we want to hide away.

    Going back to one of your earlier comments about us contacting you though, please be aware if you mention anything that could trigger safeguarding, we will safeguard you, as we do have duty of care.

    Good morning all

    I am exhausted again today but I'm going out later to enjoy the sunshine and the beautiful sea views.

    I am forever trying to focus on the positive aspects of life and trying to make the most of each day because life is short and I try to enjoy mine, despite many challenging health issues.

    Good afternoon, Grumpy

    It’s hard for me to put things into words or get my point across due to the downturn in my mental health over the last five years alongside slowly losing my short term memory since being diagnosed with long covid in 2023

    You express yourself so well here! I look forward to seeing your gardening project take shape

    🌦️ 🌱 🌦️ 🌵

    Please don't feel awful @Catherine21 you were doing what's best for your little buddy. It sounds like she struggles with pain and is quite vocal about her feelings? It'll take a day or two but she'll calm down in time, it's probably all very confusing for her right now, so just give her plenty of cuddles, if she wants them of course. 😊

    I've had a good day watching bowls overlooking the sea in the sunshine and chatting to friends.

    Evening all. Not particularly ok. I am ok until I am not . That is normally after I am back home and I am on my own.. hopefully tomorrow I will feel better. Monday is bank holiday so I have to find something to do instead of staying at home.... Until tomorrow.
