Still Autumn days in the village with lots of support for all kinds of MH problems - depression, anxiety, OCD, psychosis etc thread 2

[MySpideySenseTickles]

The thread filled up!
I made a new one hope no one minds.

They're pretty convinced it's not meningitis but a bad virus or flu.
I have to admit when he started complaining about his neck hurting and wanting the light off I freaked out.

They're concern about dehydration though because he's not drinking or weeing much, he's produced maybe 300ml of wee all day today.

Aww sorry to hear that Spidey. When DS caught the flu off me (he was 3) he wanted the curtains shut, said his back and neck hurt and he hurt 'all over', got a heat rash from the high temp and puked up so much he got dehydrated too. Hope he gets well soon

I know it sounds selfish but it is really hard looking after DC(s) when they're ill and you need to be on form but really don't feel it

Hope he feels better soon Spidey

Sending good vibes from here Spidey

What's everyone doing? I'm watching a sex- and disability-themed road trip film starring a Belgian version of Ralf Little on BBC4 and reading AIBU threads while listening to Believe by Cher on continuous repeat. Good old subtitles.

I'm finishing off tomorrow's to-do list and going to bed

am stalking Enpo to remind her not to cancel her psych appointment because people need to know if he is hot and whether he has passed his exams yet

Ooh good point. I've seen a photo of someone I think may be his dad who is not hot so it seems unlikely.

also looking at manic depressive cancerous dating blog of which am official editor, is on the MN blog network

Love that quizzical Barney photo.

Barney is the BEST

I will die when he does

hopefully we will both live for ages yet

I thought I'd hijacked and killed the thread but it's just late isn't it

Yep. Hoping Spidey and DS are resting too.

BTW Belgians make bloody morbid films.

that info could help me one day, thanks

is hard to imagine Belgium having a film industry

Aaltra is my favourite Belgian disability road-trip comedy. This was okay though.

We slept! He was up a few times but I got at least three hours in a row!
He's sti bunged up and got a really high temp but he's asked for a drink and isn't crying so hopefully he's on the mend.

Arghhhhhh bloody boiler decided not to work so had to boil a kettle to get DD and myself washed up. Because of it was rushing around like mad not to make DD late only to get to school to find out it's bloody teachers training day!!! Well I missed the damn memo though it wouldn't be too hard in my recent state of mind

Ah well I've calmed down now & put it down to shit happens. Just annoyed me & DD could have stated in bed longer.

(((( spidey )))) glad to read it wasn't anything serious and u managed a couple of hours sleep. DS sounds like he's on the mend especially if he's asking for a drink.

Morning to everyone else, hope ur mornings have started better than mine

I'm glad DS sounds better, spidey I'm very tired today, not sure why.

Once again I have cunningly dealt with morning by sleeping through it.

We went to tesco to see the pharmasist who says he's probably fine now he just needs to start eating and drinking so to offer him whatever he's likel to eat and drink regardless of what it is, even sweets and cola if it gets liquid into him.
He has lemonade and all his favorite fruits and he's had pizza on toast for lunch and eaten well.
This mornings wee was so dark it was brown! Need to get fluids into him as quick as possible.

I'm going running! Dh has agreed to look after ds now he's not as clingy. They're going to play with the big trainset while I go out.
It took all bloody day pestering him before he agreed though.

Massive kudos for Keema.

Wow, good for you!

That's quite a result keema. Congratulations.
