Sleep well, well done. Don't worry if you are a little extra-sleepy for a few days, thet's your body telling you that some extra rest is needed.
Sweet dreams.

Good Girl Carolina....sleep tight xxxxx

Carolina, please take one, I know how hard it is to put them in your mouth at first.
In a few days you will undoubtedly feel VERY much less anxious.
Hugs

Hi Carole I am in frigid Ontario,Canada, near Niagara Falls. Still very windy, have lots of branches down in my garden.
I wanna go home . . . .
Mary

Carolina just take one, once you see you don't go funny you can take the course as your doctor told you to. xxx

Carolina, you haven't let anyone down, you have taken the step to go and get some help, now all you need to do is take one. The medicines today are so different to what they were years ago, I'd forgotten but when I was in my 20s I had some, forgotten the name but something like vallium. I was so spaced out it was awful, these I am on now I don't have any side affect but am a lot calmer.Please try one tonight and we will all be thinking of you, come back tomorrow and tell us what you feel like.

Carolina - am back from wonderful day in Hereford with Daff and meeting Puss and Specky, Jude and her sister and husband and Star. Lovely lovely people - anyway, you know what I am going to ask you don't you? Have you taken those tablets - you had better say yes or there'll be trouble, big time!!

Mary where are you? Sounds very cold! With my boiler broken down and no heating other than fire in one room, glad I'm not there.
Just going to get ready to go see pychologist. See you all later xxx

Morning - or afternoon all - we are having a winter blast, roads closed, schools open but all the busses cancelled, high wind warning with heavy snow, it woke me at 4 am, to hear all our dustbins flying around the driveway between the cars, 2 ended up down the road. Trees down, even one of the local highways is closed. It's well below freezing today and I have decided to stay home rather than subject myself to this insane weather. The children are all home so it's fun and games - Sarah please don't paint the bathroom mirror with toothpaste!! The dogs stay outside about 30 seconds. And here I was looking at my flower bulbs yesterday, it was nice and mild . . good thing I didn't try to plant them.
Back to the children with a jug of cocoa.

Those embarking on the road to happier days, please let us know how you are today.
hugs
Mary

Hugs to all, o.h. home in a mo so gotta go, he moans if he comes in and I am on here - miserable old git. Must keep him in good mood so he goes to pick up the tv that is being fixed.

I am on annual leave for the rest of the week and I also have a cold type thing. I got up at 11.20am and wont be getting dressed today.

Thank goodness for pets, Lilly is curled up fast asleep on my lap which means I am typing one handed.

I was still in my pyjamas yesterday (as am today!) when got a call from daughters school to say she was ill, so it made me get dressed and walk down there which was maybe a blessing in disguise. She's fine now and in school today. Watched a Peter Kay dvd last night, I was in hysterics, theres nothing like comedy to cheer you up; I'd recommend it! Got to get my ebay parcels posted today :-( so means getting me and toddler ready and going out.

Carole, we couldn't make a team until someone started it off, I'm so pleased that we want to help each other. I for one can see some positiveness(is that a word) coming through in just a few days and it is heartwarming.
To answer your question, I am on five tablets morning and evening, every day for two weeks then a week off, there is eight cycles in the diary they gave me. Been ok on them up till yesterday then felt sickly all day, didn't help with the pain of other things. If it kills the b****r I don't care.
Good luck to everyone who has an appointment with doctor or thinking about it, go on, you can do it.

Jules just seen your post, now look you made me cry . Wipes tears on dressing gown sleeve.
I never expected this sort of response and couldn't answer everyone on my own. I don't have all the answers. It has turned into a team of caring people.
Thank you all for your input xxx

thanks Jules - haven't been there for a while now [estranged sister lives in Tupsley] but it is a lovely city - cathedral very impressive

Morning All :o)

Just popped in whilst getting lil one sorted for school n me for work.

This thread is such a success for so many of us...........talking of 'Gaurdian Angels' I think Carole is the 'GRGA' (GR Gaurdial Angel) for starting the thread...lol.

I hope you all have a good day n to Liz, Jackie, Carolina n everyone else, including myself...keep your head held high n your priority is YOU.

Ann....have a lovely day with the others. Hereford is my Home town, lived there until 1981. Bet it's changed loads.

See you all later xxxx

what brilliant news Liz - hope it all works out for you - just looked in when I got up this morning - another catalogue of sad sad stories but also of successes and the one about the "guardian angel" was lovely - I think he was sent to you that day you know - they say God moves in mysterious ways............ Am up early this morning as am off to meet Puss, Daff, Jude and Star in M & S coffee shop in Hereford - have a good day all of you, take those tablets Carolina, and I'll be back on later in the day - and Caroline - questions will be asked!!!!
