Relapse! Coping, Symptoms and Tips.

[Carnation]

Thanks poppy x

Packing isn't a problem for me, it's just that always seem to acquire so much stuff.
All the plants I want to keep are in pots because I always had it mind we may be moving.
I'm a born organiser, lol.

Wow, that must have been a surprise for the owner of the house. But no price will buy the house you love.

Uncertainty is a tough one, I really struggle with it, but you do sound like you've got a handle on the practicalities of packing etc.


My thoughts are with you Darksky, it's so difficult in the months following a death, there's so much to do and grieving as well is so hard.


I had some good news earlier in the week, after getting into a complete state and having a big blip a couple of weeks before my last exam I passed with 61% which was absolutely wonderful!

[Carnation]

Way to go catkins I had no doubts you could do it.
And I do hope you have rewarded yourself

[Carnation]

I've also been thinking about Terry, hope he's been OK.

Congrats, Catkins!

Anyone else get sharp, crampy pains in their legs that's come out of nowhere? I'm wondering if it's anxiety related

[.Poppy.]

I do, Carnation. I think sometimes it’s due to walking or sleeping funny, but I think that it can be tangentially related to anxiety - it makes us tense, which then either makes us sore or means we aren’t using our bodies “correctly” - walking funny, sleeping too deeply or not deeply enough which effects our positioning, etc.

I try to do some stretches and relax as best I can, but sometimes I give in too and take some pain meds.

[Carnation]

Thanks poppy, I think you are absolute right with all of that. My leg has been agony tonight when I move but doesn't hurt when I rest it.

Well done Catkins!!

I'm sorry you're having pain with your leg Carnation. I get a pulling sensation in my upper thigh now and again which I think might be bursitis.

Sending you hugs Darksky, I am so sorry. Carn I am also sorry to hear that you might have to move. Congrats Cat!!! I Haven't been here in a while as I was dealing with mental issues, and it will soon be a year since I lost my mom, in June. That's been on my mind a lot.
