In hospital and not for mental health this time

@cupcake88
Good morning cupcake.
Omg that’s blooming awful I can’t believe how low one human being could treat another 😢

I hope you got some help to get home safely.
It’s maybe an idea just to go out when your husband or someone else can be with you just now.

Hold in there till Wednesday and I pray you get some answers then.

Look after yourself. 😘❤️

Hi @cupcake88 - what a dreadful thing to happen. I hope you aren't hurt & that you get help on Wednesday. Not too long now, xx

That is terrible to rob someone having a medical episode just pathetic of them

hi every one thank you for the kind comments I have reported it to the police . And I also contacted the local cash converters to see if some one tries to sell an Apple Watch as Theres one in town so I might get my watch back and they could be caught . But if there clever they won’t sell it there .

I’m shocked with how human beings can act . How some one can do that to me is beyond me . I’m a kind person I would help any one and to think some ones done that to me Is just unthinkable.

I’m praying the specialist can help me on Wednesday I hope he doesn’t say there’s nothing he can do because that would put me mental health back which I don’t want to happen . My husband can’t believe that happened to me he thinks that it’s disgusting he said not to go out on my own until I have seen the specialist and think you all agree . Can you imagine if I was walking my dog .

From fitting this is really bothering me I’m scared to go to the hospital because I don’t trust people in uniform any more I just feel like there going to section me I know this is different to my mental health but that’s what I associate health care professionals with as there going to section me .

cupcake88

Hi @cupcake88. Have you had the specialist appointment? I can't believe what happened to you when you were so vulnerable. Some people are so awful.

Hi @cupcake88. Terrible about what that person or they did to you. Hope you have support in place for yourself. How was your hospital appointment with the neurologist or consultant? Hopefully they should be able to do relevant test on you and find out the cause of the seizures. If possible, try and go out with a friend or family member so that the person can help you when you have a seizure.

hi every one I have seen the specialist and he has put me on medication and confirmed I have epilepsy x

Hi @cupcake22 Good news that you now have a diagnosis and medication to help with your seizures. It can take a while sometimes to come to terms with a new diagnosis, so please take care of yourself.

Amazing that you finally got a diagnosis. Hopefully these new meds really help you with controlling it. How are you feeling about the diagnosis? As Bluebell mentions I know it can take time for it to sink in. When I was diagnosed with Crohns and ADHD I had a mix of good "wow I finally have an answer" feelings and the not so good feelings around concerns with it.

hi every one I just want to thank my amazing friends for your kind words it means so much to me it’s so hard living with this new diagnosis but at least they know what to treat which is a good thing . Been taking my meds on time properly each night and so far so good . Haven’t had any seizures today which is good .

I’m looking forward to a good future now my mental health is under control and hopefully my seizures will be under control too soon but so far so good .

despite advice from love ones I decided to go to work I joined a child care agency that supplies nursery nurses to a popular local nursery chain . I did my first day yesterday I was in the baby room I was so worried I would fit so I just played on the floor with the children didn’t pick any up . I got so paranoid I would fit I started to hear voices and I got in a panic and I started to cry which was embarrassing . This new medication seems to be working well which is good . I decided to do another shift on Thursday but I have asked to be with the older children like ages 4 to 5 then I don’t have to panic as much .

I’m enjoying doing my course and my little job it’s so hard being disabled and working but I see it as little wins . Mental illness is some thing I have lived threw for years and I’m so proud of my self for doing some thing new I don’t believe I would be where Iam today with out my lovely friends on this forum
