Woop! Just got a call asking if I wanted to be visited today (er, no, ta) and telling me that they're about to call CMHT to hand me over to them. Finally getting off this daily checking up soon I hope Grin

Though they seem VERY interested in symptoms of psychosis.

I'm planning on trying it for a week and seeing how it goes

Hmmm. Everyone is interested in psychosis. It's the big red flag.

Mentalpsychiatrist · 06/11/2014 16:10

I think trying it for a week is a good idea.

EnpoTree · 06/11/2014 16:12

How are you doing today mp?

OP posts:
Mentalpsychiatrist · 06/11/2014 16:13

I'm good thanks. Sitting doing yet more paperwork and it's cold in my office Sad

EnpoTree · 06/11/2014 16:14

It's cold everywhere.

I'm actually not doing paperwork, I'm floating around on the internet.

EnpoTree · 06/11/2014 16:20

No, really? Wink

I'd quite like to go home. I'm very hungry but all there is to eat here is biscuits. I might do a drive by on M&S for an easy dinner.

What was the psych like that you met? Was he someone you might be able to trust?

EnpoTree · 06/11/2014 16:40

Um... I guess he seems okay? Don't know yet really.

Easy dinner sounds good. I think I might have smoked salmon and cream cheese.

Mentalpsychiatrist · 06/11/2014 16:45

Right, I've done all that's going to get done. I'm going to go and get dinner and head home. Will talk to you later.

EnpoTree · 06/11/2014 16:47

Mmm. Food. Have a good evening.

OP posts:
EnpoTree · 06/11/2014 17:13

Home now. Really tired. Headache. Blech.

OP posts:
EnpoTree · 06/11/2014 17:18

I have to go back in a week, have blood tests done Hmm, and see care coordinator and psychiatrist again.

yay enpo you survived!

can't comment on pregabalin (except for some reason I thought it WAS a neuroleptic, not that you hear that term so much now?)

you feel ok about how it went generally? did you have the opportunity to express your concerns?

Mitchy1nge · 06/11/2014 17:32

am having grilled chicken salad maybe go fucking mental and stick some of it in a mini pitta Shock

(could only find ONE egg for 'omelette' so scrambled it with feta and, more daringly, 5 slices of chorizo for lunch)

Mentalpsychiatrist · 06/11/2014 17:43

I'm having quiche and salad because that's what spoke to me in M&S.

Mitchy1nge · 06/11/2014 17:46

Envy of egg based meal

wish had not invented imaginary complaint of egg poisoning which is what I think might happen if I either exceed 2 eggs a day or have 1 egg at each of 2 meals

KNOW is bollocks

still scared of it

EnpoTree · 06/11/2014 17:46

Yes, i am indeed alive sadly. Your dinner sounds great.

I expressed my concerns, yes. The guy was very short-sighted, like me, so I did feel some rapport there (dunno why; always feel I can have an understanding with other people who have to remember exactly where on their bedside coolbox table they put their glasses so they can find them again).

OP posts:
EnpoTree · 06/11/2014 17:47

I've frequently eaten six eggs in a day and not died.

OP posts:
EnpoTree · 06/11/2014 17:48

Was getting thru 15 a week at one point.

OP posts:
Mitchy1nge · 06/11/2014 17:50

I know

everyone is always saying 'don't be such a dick, is routine for me to have more than 2 eggs scrambled on toast/in an omelette and nothing bad happens'

but still

egg poisoning, I fear being apooic more than many worse things which is interesting because actually am quite a lot of the time Hmm

Mentalpsychiatrist · 06/11/2014 17:50

I don't believe it's possible to eat too many eggs although I don't think I ever got to the dizzy heights of 15 a week.

Mitchy1nge · 06/11/2014 17:53

I eat about 10-14 a week usually in the form of The Omelette

but obviously no more than two at a time, once a day

despite this I can still confidently claim to be the most mentally normal person in this room and not just because am alone
