Whenever I got into my 'maybe' mode (re the grog) as opposed to cravings which I never really had as such --- I used to think I'd feel like that forever - never let it pass over me back in the day -- just acted on the mode eventually each time --- so well done again!!

Ah our wee girlie:l
What can I say? Well except that it's great that you KNOW you were being overwhelmed and needed to do something about it --- all sounds like it's a bit too much for you -- very stressful and not good to be like that constantly --- like I felt stressed today -- but I knew it was only today - a good nights sleep and I'll be restored ---- could you take a few days off and just have the time for yourself to do nothing or everything - whichever??? Poor pet xxxxx

haha --- love that -- great to be utterly relaxed with folks --- not too many I'm like that with tbh!!!

Hey Molls:l Yeah know tis not good to be like this constantly- did consider getting a line from doc but (don't tell me off now!) couldn't leave me mates in work in the shit.. Place is poorly enough staffed as it is and big part of the stress is being down on numbers. Im due a week off again in Feb so will suck it up til then and practice me relaxation/mindfulness stuff between now and then as well as taking the meds.

Hows things with you?

Ah look I do understand bout not leaving your colleagues in the lurch --- cos it's them that suffer, not the powers that be ---- we are CONSTANTLY on minimum numbers in our job - so if someone doesn't turn up unexpectedly it often means chaos for the other staff ---- if you think you're alright..... well give the aul relaxation stuff a whirl --- hard tho!
When I do feel like that -- the last place I wanna be is here sometimes --- bit like AA meetings --- but that's precisely where I should be........ the good times are easy
Anyways --- I really am off now --- get a good nights sleep --- it can work miracles xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

All true Molls- as always ye hit the nail on the head!

Nighters and thanks to you and all xx

Sweetpea I take 20mg of cipramil each morning. I think they help with anxiety as well. Keep meaning to do some relaxation daily as well but keep forgetting i'm not great with it my mind finds it hard to stay still lol but may get around to it and try a bit each day morning and evening I have heard is good even just for 10 mins. Anyway nite from me going to bed my book as feeling sleepy again. Hi jammy. Till tomorrow sleep well folks.:bedtime:
