    Hi,  I have psychosis and OCD and Anxiety.  I have been struggling with isolation during this pandemic it's been really hard.  And have been waking up with severe anxiety.  I have a very loving supportive husband.

    Hi @Suzita

    Thanks for that, I'm sorry to hear you have been struggling with isolation during the pandemic, I know that many others have too. It's great that you have a loving husband though. Fingers crossed this community can help you feel more involved and relieve some of that isolation.

    Are you receiving all the support you need from your GP to manage your OCD, psychosis and anxiety?

    I have anxiety depression and Psychosis and OCD.  It's not great for sure.  I get my good days and not so good days.  Nice to receive your text.  I hope that your anxiety and depression gets better soon.  I live in a flat in a tower block.  Even though I have my husband once we shut the door that's it we see no one.  Except for the odd occasion we see our neighbour.  It's a lonely life.  I do knitting and knitted a rug.  Making another one.  And my husband bought me crystal art.  So that I have something to do.  I have a set routine everyday.  Look forward to communicating with you on here.  And hope we can be friends.  ??

    Hello @Suzita and a warm welcome from me too, how's it going today?  Are you receiving support from a mental health team with the conditions you describe?  I hope so but if not, do let us know.

    I am very envious of your knitting abilities!  If ever you want to share pics of your crafts with our other members, you can on this Kaleidoscope thread.  As you can see, we have lots of artistic, talented people about!

    I hope you have a fab Thursday and if you fancy a natter, you are always welcome here :)

    Hi Cher,  lovely to receive your message,  I have a nurse once a month who comes and sees me, and they are seeing if I can get a support worker once a week 2hours.  I get very lonely in my day and I struggle not having family close, as my daughters live far away.  Where abouts are you from.  I live in Hertfordshire.  Not far from London.
