My special place

I drink mostly chai @Snowie  but when sick with a cold or flu I don’t really feel like milky drinks, but I like a warm drink to sooth my throat.

Thanks for the company @lavenderhaze 

I hope the rest of your day goes well.

@Bow I remember you saying you like chai. D does too.

A mixture of meds and prn making me quite sleepy here.

Yeah I love me a nice chai latte @Snowie made one a while ago and put it in my thermal cup. I’ll try sipping on it over the next couple of hours. 

hope you can get some rest with your meds. 

about to connect with my dietitian now, so chat later.

Hi @Snowie , sorry you had hardly any sleep on Weds night...how was last night? Sorry also that you're sick...I hope it's not Covid 🤞

Bit concerned as you said your appetite dropped when sick. I know you have trouble eating when not sick. 

Sending wishes... 💙

Hi @NatureLover 

Still feel like sh*t. Have tested twice for covid and come back negative. Hopefully it's just a virus and will be gone soon. Just trying to not pass it on to anyone else.

My mental health wasn't great before hand and it just seems to drop even more when I don't feel well. Does that happen to you too?

Anyway, enough about me. How are you going?

@Snowie I think many peoples MH drops when sick. Mine certainly did, and I haven’t recovered, but then I still have the coughs. Lots is going around right now. Keep warm and rest up 💖🫂

Hi @Snowie , sorry you feel so rotten and that your MH has suffered as a result 😢

How did you sleep last night? 

I am still in a slump. Missed work all last week so Monday will be stressful. Am trying to psych up to go to work on Monday. 

Sending good wishes 💙

[Snowie]

Still not well here, not much sleep. My head is screwed up.

Had a relative do a post on suicide last night. Lets just say it didn't go down well. Once you see it you can't unsee it. Least I know how they feel now.

I'm sorry you're still in a slump @NatureLover Can you at least try half a day at work or a few hours on Monday? Start small.

Hey @Snowie ,

That's so tough. I can see how the post may have upset and affected you. 

Please look after yourself. Hope you get a chance to do something nice for yourself.

[NatureLover]

@Snowie Sorry you are still feeling rotten 😣 and about your relative's post 😥

I gather your thoughts are pretty awful, after that and after hardly any sleep? 

I hadn't thought of easing back to work slowly / doing a half day. Thanks, that's a good idea. 

Sending care dear @Snowie 💙
