Been Feeling Really Ill And Low Again :-(

[Helpmebirmingham]

Hello everyone I last posted here a few weeks back. I have now noticed a lot of changes on the site. Anyway. I have had three counselling sessions feeling a bit better but now I feel very low again. Getting snappy and I really don't want to go back where I was a few weeks back.

Hi helpme

Yes we have had a few changes , slowly getting used to them , but we are all still here

I am pleased you have started your counselling & had a few good weeks thats good news, but I no it does take time

I think sometimes when we do have a few good weeks as you have & then get up feeling low , we can wonder why & whats happening & fear we are going back again

I do think though even people that dont suffer with anxiety & so on have low days , they tend to take them in their stride , we can start over thinking

Dont see feeling low as you are not recovering , see it as part of the recovery instead

You are doing really well & have come along way , feel proud of yourself

Keep talking on here & I hope you start picking up again soon , let us no how your counselling keeps going

Love

Hi WhyWhy.

Thank you. The situation is I can recognise the signs of when I was in the deepest anxiety and I feel I am on the way again? I feel as if I should give myself a good shake up and say get a grip. I really can't at the moment.

Not got any motivation at all and feel exhausted to go with it

I understand & I dont think you need a good shake up , I think you should be kind to yourself & proud how far you have come

This time as well you have your counselling to go to & you can explain how you have been feeling at the moment , before you hadnt , so they will help you , with where these feelings are coming from

Try not to fear how you feel , I no it isnt easy , but it really does help

Pleased to see you on here by the way , wish it wasnt because you are feeling down , but its good to see the old faces as well as the new that are joining , makes it feel more like home

A lot of different people on here since I last logged in. I will not be seeing my councillor for 3 weeks as the building is having work done.

I am trying to be strong. I really am x

Hi

There are still alot on here as well from the old site , I think the lay out been different sometimes throws us of sort of seeing them , also there are a few still struggling to get on , but it will all come good again , so keep coming on , I have struggled with the changes , still am a bit , but slowly getting used to it

I no you are staying strong , bless you , it takes so much effort as well , when we are feeling down , so I do no you are doing your best

Maybe do you think , its just a thought but as you no you wont be seeing your counsellor for 3 weeks that may have took a little security you were starting to feel from having someone to talk to

Keep coming on here & talking , we are still about & will answer
