Was sorry to hear about your Mum, and your spots!

It does seem good that people in the right circles are trying to help you at last, even if they do talk about cups. (strange, strange people!)

essbee- did you get my parcel yet?

saintshar · 19/04/2005 12:56

Have to go, Mum just turned up to take me food shopping. (You can tell by that I still haven't passed my test.)

Still can't log onto MSN, will try again later, see if you are around.

Make sure you get that rash seen to, it could be an allergy to someting.

Am feeling so confused at the moment,i just need to write it down and get it out.
Am seeing a CBT therapist at the moment for anxiety and depression.
Dh came to a meeting with me and the therapist and she told him i need a lot of support at the moment as i was suffering from severe anxiety .
This was last week,today dh had a day off went to the shops at 11.45am ,came back at 5.45pm drunk.
When i was asking him why as he knows how i am feeling at the moment,not coping with the children etc he just said i needed to sort my shit out and i had had all the support i was getting.He said in a sarcastic tone that i needed phcyciatric treatment.
I went to the bathroom as i was so upset at as i don't care approach,smiling whilst he said those things ,and he came in asking if i had finished snivelling yet.
I don't know what to do,i am scared for the future.
I just can't stand this mental torture anymore.
He is like jekell and hyde.
I feel i have no one to turn to.Our familes now only parts of this and i have confided in my niece but don't want to worry her.
I am not oping with the kids at the moment and his behaviour is'nt helping.
What do i do,i feel spo trapped and alone

Hi Essbee - sorry to hear about ds at school
Was the teacher 'OK' with you about it? Are school still being supportive and helpful?

Oh essbee, what a rotten week you're having. Keep your chin up girl, you are doing really well. When all I can see is shit it helps to look behind me and see all the shit I've shovelled already - I notice I'm getting somewhere then - if you know what I mean

hi essbee, just seen this. Really sorry you are having such a hard time again. Definitely think you should see your own GP. She knows all your history and may have a better solution for changing medication.
Sending hugs X

Hi there, just caught up on this (just worked out how dh tweaked the compute to block this site )

defo agree it's a good idea to talk things through with the doctor tomorrow as to how best to manage the transition to another med. the last thing you need is to be left floundering (yet again). was the rash on your face/chest or elswhere? just that I understood that if it was elsewhere it wasn't likely to be a medication allergy)

if you do go on tricyclics, they are likely to make you a bit sleepier, but IIRC they also start working quicker than SSRIs - spacecadet knows about this as she has seen people taking them in her work as a nurse.

sorry that the professionals seem to be making matters worse at times - I thought that taking things personally was part and parcel of being depressed but hey. sorry that you feel the sw is being critical - I know that you have tried and tried to get help for you and DS but that it has been a long and uphill struggle through the waiting lists.

SoupDragon · 20/04/2005 16:06

mummytosteven, the rash was, apparently, everywhere!

essbee - I had an allergic reaction to amoxyl - even the soles of my feet were spotty - not fun - hope it clears up soon - did you get given anti-histamines?
