A new thread for the new year

[Arty]

Hello well, I got through last week ok thankfully. For some reason lots of negative thoughts are milling about (especially “you don’t need all this medication, you are not good enough etc. etc) I know that lots of you are familiar with this & as always it is a comfort that I have friends on DWD to discuss things with. In my rational moments I know that the meds slow me down, which I very much need. I am realising that my girls are growing up and are going out with friends more. This is great but it represents a kind of loss, and of course this links with the separation from my ex. There are a lot of emotions tied up this & although those close to me tell me I am coping really well/ blossoming the niggling doubts still remain. We are off on holiday on Monday for 4 nights with my Mum which will be a good change of scene, and food is cooked for us too Great that I can be honest with you guys about everything.
