Hi David, sorry the week has been so crap for you, when it's like that it's so difficult to think of even small things to turn things around. But sometimes that's where you have to start, just something small each day to start building up on, then slowing even when things around you dont change, how you react to them does and life becomes a lot more bareable.

hugs to you and hope it starts to get better very soon xx

Talk yourself better David! When you started worrying remind yourself that it's totally pointless as worrying isn't helping yr mom if fact maybe the opposite. Remind yourself that you and the medics are doing the very best for your mom and that's all she would want. try doing the breathing 2-4-7 technique. In through yr nose for 2 seconds, hold for 4 seconds and breath out your mouth for 7 secs. This will calm you when yr wound up. Try this once yr in bed too! You will sleep better, good luck xx

To say worrying is totally pointless is a ridiculous thing to say. What half decent human being isn't going to worry about their Mum being in hospital? Feeling worried is a natural response to thoughts reaching the cerebral cortex. It wouldn't be normal not to worry. I can see that excessive worrying, particularly about things that we can't change, is not always helpful, but to be concerned about someone is a helpful and normal response.

Lucy I totally agree with you. It's not easy to " talk yourself better".

If it was that easy there would be no one on this Forum. I worried

About my own Mother when she was ill, I think it's normal , . It's his

Mother for goodness sake.

I'm sorry I've not explained myself properly on my last message. I never said talking yourself better was easy I didn't put that post up to make anyone angry or upset I was just trying to help. I was just giving little self hints that helped me and thought they may help someone else. It took me nearly 4 years to get back on my feet, I'm not trying to make anyone else suffer. Just wanted to help as i know how Hard it is. Sorry x

hi, I also feel fatigued. Sometimes due to sleep, because dreaming is so much effort. Then worrying is more effort

Yes of course you are going to worry David - that is normal. But try not to worry too much as she is obviously in good hands. Hopefully she will out of hospital soon. Take care xx
