Busy Day

Today I went shopping with my partner and his dad again. We've spent time with him 3 days in a row which has been really fun and I've really enjoyed myself. We went to a bigger town this time and did charity shops again and got mcdonalds.

I got up at 6am again and had another productive morning doing lots of housework. Although it is now 6pm and I feel ready for bed already, I am knackered.

There's not much more to report on for today really other than having a lovely phone call with my dad. I'm not comfortable talking about it here because he is a very private person but I will say that I love him very, very much and I'm hoping to get over to his next week so that I can see him. It is also his birthday soon which I have something planned for so that will be good, I know he's looking forward to it.

I got a letter today from ESA saying that they urgently needed my questionnaire as they had not received it. This made me rather anxious as I had to call and tell them that it was sent off last week and apparently they received it yesterday for whatever reason so that was fine. As I said, I was anxious and I got a bad stomach but I managed to call very quickly and get it sorted so I really think I'm improving on that side of things.

Tomorrow my partner has another meeting with universal credit and he will also be taking my next fit note up. I will be researching free things to do nearby and maybe making a few plans. I have not today as I have been out and about but I will be sure to get this done tomorrow. Still feeling good.

Samantics

Oh my goodness. What an epic evening. Anywhere where there is food, drink, folk music and a happy atmosphere - I cannot get enough of. And that's what tonight was for me and my partner. The main reason we went tonight was to see Samantics. He was incredible as always AND I got to meet him, talk to him, got a hug and even a photo. I have seen him many, many times live now and I have never had the confidence to talk to him. Anxiety has always gotten in the way. But I plucked up the courage today and it felt so good. We talked about the fact I had just started Sertraline and he said to stick with it. The majority of his songs are about mental health and how its affected him in his life. So, I thought it would be ok to bring up. He approached me actually because he noticed that I was wearing his t-shirt from crowdfunder. He was the first crowdfunder I have ever backed and I was glad I did. I bought his shirt, new album, a travel cup, lyric book and bottle opener. Anyway, what a truly a...

Struggling

Hello, all. Yesterday my partner went with his family into the city to play golf. I had a really tough night sleeping the night before so I decided to give it a miss as I had a busy evening planned. My afternoon plans got rescheduled to today but my friend still came over for our evening picnic. Unfortunately, we had to eat our picnic indoors as the weather was terrible but we still went for a nice, long walk and had a great chat. We've decided that next time we meet, we will have some drinks so that will be fun. Today my partner had his universal credit meeting and I went and met up with my cousin. We went to hers and also to the pub to meet my uncle. I was considering writing a little about my family and I would like to but as it involves others, I thought it would be safer I didn't. All I will say is that I haven't seen my uncle since I was 9 years old so it was crazy to see him again. Being back in the town that I lived with my mum (who is now deceased) and seeing c...

Sleeping Pattern

So in trying to sort out my sleeping pattern, I am completely losing track of what day and time it is. We managed to stay up all night and go to bed at 9am this morning and we got up at 6pm. Now, we will try to stay up all night again into tomorrow afternoon. My Doctors appointment is at 9am but I will still be awake and won't have to get up. Its very complicated. I feel worse after a good nights sleep than I do a shorter night. About 7 hours is good for me, any more than that and I start feeling dodgy. I'm nervous about tomorrows appointment. I am definitely slowly improving my anxiety and I think thats down to the Sertraline and really pushing myself, but I still have a phobia of Doctors and I think I will for a long time. The reason for tomorrows appointment is to review the Sertraline again, talk about side effects, whether I think its working and possibly adjust the dose/change the medication if its not. I also want to talk to her about the IBS Symptoms that my therapist...
