I am sooooo pleased with myself. I am just back from a week in Spain with my hubby and 3 kids. A week before i left i was in taken to hospital in ambulance and had a black out spell. The crisis team came out to me everyday and my meds where changed for the short term. I was unsure if i would be able to go on holiday.
i managed the flights ... just about. We had a nice time as a family and hubby was very good he entertained the kids and let me lie down and relax when i felt tired. I had 3 minor panic attacks and hubby was great and helped me through them by focusing my attention and with the help of Diazepam (2mg).
I am soo proud of myself and hubby. Family back home though were more anxious that me... lol
Now it is back to the norm. Doctors tomorrow, and then psychiatristand counselling starts this week.
Just to let you know that sometimes you can lead a 'normal' life. I am in no ways out of my bad spell at the moment but i do feel as though i am getting somewhere. i would never have thought 2 weeks ago that i would have been able to go to Spain.....but I done it.
Sorry for rabbling on but the sense of achievement i feel to have spent some time with my hubby and 3 kids was better than words can describe. xx
