I hope you are able to spend a little time with others, even if it's only a short chat, and don't forget some 'me time'

Weekends are “me time.” No TMS treatments. No dialysis. No doctor’s appointments. No calls to make (or expect). I will check in with a couple of friends, but no extra people or activities. And I thank goodness it’s Friday.

been a strange week. It was the anniversary of my daughters death. I went out the night before to dinner with new friends that I’ve met. They no nothing of my past so it was easy to make light conversation. Then on “The Day” I busied myself. Feeling quite pleased with myself for not hitting the deck. Then yesterday I crashed 😞. Unexpected very emotional etc… just couldn’t do anything. It was like looking through the blackest cloud ever almost trance like just had to go with it. In bed at 8 after a few glasses of wine & lots of tissues. Feeling a bit drained today but better. Seeing friends for early evening drinks & tomorrow I’m having breakfast with my eldest & grandchildren 😊

Sorry (or envious) of your meltdown. I hate when they occur but always feel a little lighter after the storm has passed. My heart hurts for you.

yes your right, I do feel lighter.

At least I now know if I ride with the storm it will pass. In the early days I thought I’d be stuck there forever which would make me desperate to escape.

Hi Caza

I wish I'd known yesterday.

It always seems to floor us when our reaction hits us, even though we should know by now.

Let your sorrow flow and feel better later today when you meet friends and see your grandchildren tomorrow.

I'm glad you're making new friends and keeping busy<3

Hi @Caza,

I'm pottering about outside, bought some fuchsia plants, today, and making a list for a trip to the nursery next week. I love planning, trouble is, I'm running out of space 😀
