It sounds rough @BlueBay
I hear you though - it sounds like Transitional Ambivalance - I understand - you think and really do believe that you will feel better if you move yourself to different circumstances but your issues are never solved and so you battle on and keep trying
You aren't giving up though -
Take things easy - if you spent the whole day sleeping then that was pretty good seeing how worn out you have been lately - this is time for you to be by yourself for the peace and quiet you need right now - try and make the best of it
Your family will be okay they are not children now - and it's time they managed and Huffnpuff will be able to have things where he wants them - that's if the kids allow that - but just take your time and Face-Time with A when you can
I wish you the best - I hope these tests locate some cause for your health issues - that would make a difference

Hi @Owlunar @Emelia8 @Shaz51 @MDT @Faith-and-Hope @Maggie and others reading
I'm sorry I haven't been on. I've had blood tests X-rays and an echocardiogram and stress test. Waiting fir results when the cardiologists comes in hopefully Monday.
I'm feeling tired been sleeping a lot. My blood pressure is low compared to "my normal"
they the nurses don't get it thst the readings are low for me but they say oh no it's good.
anyway no changes of meds except the thyroid an increase.
Oh my mum rang me this mirning. Surprise surprise!!
I go through feeling emotional at times then feel ok. But the extremes aren't as high as they used to be.
my thinking has been more rational. I'm doing more pros and cons on things which lets me see it on paper and then I've been waiting before doing anything irrational. That's huge for me.
my psych is happy the way I'm sleeping all night and has said he'll leave it to me for when to go home.
I'm feeling very sleepy agsin. May need to rest again.
home life - they are all coping. My son and his girlfriend (with Ayla's hrlp) made home made pizza the other night. Wish I was there. I'm chatting to Ayla a few times a day. She keeps asking me where am I and then kisses the phone. She's clearly missing me which is nice and I'm really missing her.
take care my friends ❤️❤️

@BlueBay It’s sounding like the break is doing you good.
I know you miss them at home, but make the most of the break if you can.
I hope your tests come back ok on Monday. It’s good you are getting some sleep.
Thanks for the update. Take care. 💙💙
