Hello sweetheart. There's loads of people here listening. Not sure I can make any useful suggestions but we're all here for you.

I wish I could say something to help, but nobody is sick of you. I feel sad reading your post, you're in so much pain..

2 nurofen and 2 paracetomol will make you sleep well just til morning. But that'd be a rest from your thoguhts. HOpe tomorrow is easier for you.

We are all here for you cvq! We are NOT sick of you. Sometimes we might not have the right words, but it doesnt mean we don't care. Sending you virtual hugs (even if it is such a netmums thing to do).

Hang on in there, you are havinga bad horrible day, your lack of sleep isn't helping, you need to get angry darling. Heaven knows im angry for you.

I think there is a bachs rescue remedy that can help with sleep. I swear by my rescue remedy. OK so that doesn't help now but make a plan to go and get some tomorrow.

I know I don't post on your threads a lot, I don't MN hugely (on a roll tonight though ) I know your boy was in hospital recently. That sounded awful. What's been going on in the last few days?

NormaStanleyFletcher · 28/07/2008 23:08

OK - no worries

If you need me i think you have my number

I am waiting up for feckless teenager to come home, so if you fancy a chat, just let me know

NormaStanleyFletcher · 28/07/2008 23:15

am on msn as well if you have that fixed

PeaMcLean · 28/07/2008 23:17

so you had the cctv fitted this evening?

Do crisis do any follow up stuff with you?

thumbwitch · 28/07/2008 23:18

cvq - have you got a lovely fluffy thing (dressing gown, duvet, throw, pashmina thing) that you can cuddle into? I know it's bastard hot (well it is here anyway) but just cuddling something like that around you can help you feel better (sounds mad, still works) and if you can imagine that said thing is a Shield against all Shit, then it can help you to feel safe as well. (still sounds mad, still works).

you are still doing a great job, you are hanging in there and you are communicating on here to get the help and support you need - we are all here for you.

{{{{hugs}}}} - special curly ones

copingvquietly · 28/07/2008 23:23

PeaMcLean · 28/07/2008 23:27

Hope cpn helps. Will be thinking of you. I'm sure lots of people say that to you but we are, lots of us. You will get through this, you're doing all the right things in getting help.

Hangingbellyofbabylon · 29/07/2008 00:09

I'm sure you're suffering from depersonalization after your panic attack - I found the only things that snapped me out of it was a little dose of diazepam which meant I had a good nights sleep. It will pass but I have had these going slowly feelings for about 48 hours. hang in there. I'm off to bed but if I can help anymore with stuff about panic attacks and anxiety let me know, I know how debilitating they are.

copingvquietly · 29/07/2008 00:12

it feels like i could do anything and it woudlnt affect me
