Feeling Overwhelmed - again.

Just that. I am feeling overwhelmed again. Nothing really to complain of and no crisis to deal with, but I feel so overwhelmed and despondant.

Anyone else feeling this way today who would like to talk sympathetically to a fellow sufferer?

Lovely to talk to you both on Friday, sorry I haven't around this weekend, horrible fluey episode yesterday and a friend visiting today.

Hectic week of work and drs appointments ahead this week but will check in when I can. Thinking of you.

It was actually for me - don't take this the wrong way but I finished chatting with you ladies and then felt extremely ill immediately afterwards! I should stress this was a coincidence, I had been feeling increasingly dodgy all day.

Fortunately so far ds seems to have avoided getting it too!

What an unfortunate coincidence. Perhaps something you ate?

I think just this bug that's been doing the rounds. Fortunately I was back on fighting form today though, having slept for most of yesterday. I am willing to take my chances of chatting with you again to prove it was a one off! (Although not tonight as I am about to head for bed)

DumbledoresGirl · 26/02/2006 22:18

You won't catch anything from me I assure you! (although I have been feeling ill in another way for days now. Symptoms keep changing. Hmmm hypochondriac? me?

I don't think MSN contact is likely to bring on illness, fortunately! Hope you are feeling better soon.

Hi you two. Sorry to hear you have not been well. More illness in this house too.

I've got a hectic week one way or another so may not be around much. I'll try to post or send MSN message soon. REALLY want to chat again soon.

Could do with some virtual energy being sent my way though. I need to keep strong this week. Thanks x

Thinking of you lots NASWM. Lean on me. Smile

Hi DG, battling on, now reviewing a CV for a friend of mine! (As you do) will send you an IM and see if you are around.

Hope all well NASWM.

Hang in there you two. :)

Hi. Just having another Dementor attack and none of my msn contacts are online. Everyone out enjoying the sunshine I expect. I was in town and heard a woman talking about her elderly mother who is ill in hospital. The whole way home, all I could think about is how I could find myself in hospital. Decided that if I passed out breaking my leg and only woke up again when the leg had been re-set and I was in the hospital bed, that would be rather nice. Told dh and he said "Why?" and I replied so that I can be looked after by someone else and get away from all of you (the family). He agreed that would be nice and went out. Sad

Sorry, rambling away here. Just really miz again. No-on will read this anyway.
