I don't think my ADs are working. I am on a real downer and have had enough.

Really really down and suicidal.

You're welcome. How are you feeling now?

Today was good as I knew last night what we were doing and that helps me. I was also determined to spend more time with the kids and not to say no if I could help it. We were having a lovely time at the lakes and then had to take DS1 to A & E so not part of the plan but I coped and stood up for myself when I felt the checking in woman and nurse were making me feel I had over reacted. Today has been a strange day.

At least it's been a good day :) Could you plan things like that regularly if it helps? I like to have an idea in my head of what we're going to do the next day or at least a choice that would depend on, say, weather.

When I've been depressed I always found that getting out and being in the sun/fresh air made me feel better as did a walk.

How is DS1 now? Hopefully you'll get a good night's sleep too as that was one thing that helped me, at some points I couldn't sleep for longer than 3 hours and was up most of the night but I felt a lot better once I managed to sort my sleeping out.

I don't know what we are doing tomorrow as we need to see how DS1 is. We have a private hospital 10 minutes away so are considering phoning them tomorrow to ask if they can help with DS1.
