Strangely tho it is physically tiring having a panic attack - even more so when you've got others to think about / look after....be kind to yourself....DS will be fine

ooooh dg, can i come live with you? that sounds fab. I could really do with a rural retreat at the moment.

Bumper, No ideas why it happened, but things have been a bit iffy for me for ages and have had to work myself up into actually leaving the house most days. I get in a right state before I have to go anywhere these days and have been finding more and more stupid excuses to not do anything/go anywhere.

I don't know if it's anything to do with the ADs I'm on? or the depression as a whole.

Am taking DCs to Sainsburys for some shopping in a bit.

Sounds cool DG - and sounds like you've put alot of thought into your project. What do you mean about your dh's "stock?"
I used to love that programme with Ben Fogle - not shipwrecked oh i cant think - where you have to make do and live off the land - i used to think i would love to do that .

Daisy - i feel for you - dont beat yourself up, just rest - your going to have to take little baby steps ..and speak to your GP again.

daisyandbabybootoo · 21/09/2007 17:05

i've forgotten I've got some rescue remedy....I suppose this will test to see if it really works!

Faylisa.....did you see you got a name check in the MN talk roundup this week?....for your post on the "What Not To Do..." thread

TALLULAHBELLE · 21/09/2007 17:24

Bugger - just got home to note from new next-door neighbours warning that they are having a 'gathering of people' tonight. Bang goes my plan of snuggly evening with DD on sofa followed by early night. They didn't even invite me - b***ds.

daisyandbabybootoo · 21/09/2007 17:29

so jbm....is L in a lovely fluffy little lamb then?

Pants to your neighbours tallulah....give it till midnight then call the council's noise abatement people.

ds1 had a better day thanks.DH went to see the teacher (who fortunately didn'y knowe about the two incidents yesterday). we are going to see him a week on monday after the residential trip. it might turn out ok. hopefully he is having thurs & fri off next week so we can do some fun but educational stuff with him. i was thinking of beamish but found out how much it cost so we'll probably just go to Elvington air museum.

go to scarborough for an ice cream daisy - pacittios are the best. i can't believe two of you mentioned filey - that's near where i live!

your plan sounds good dg. DH would like a restaurant with a market garden to grow his own produce. it will never happen though...but we can dream.

did you have panic attacks before the ads daisy? i did but found they were made worse by citalopram and valium. i get mine for getting out of bed in a morning. hope you feel ok now though, i know how draining it can be. your dh is being a star again - tell him off, we are supposed to be twunt bashing

riabutterflew · 21/09/2007 17:49

have a nice holiday charlie!

oh gawd, have you seen the news about the abandoned baby. thank god he's ok. I HATE the news.

riabutterflew · 21/09/2007 17:55

aibu to seriously consider stuffing the tv remote up dhs arse?

justbeme · 21/09/2007 18:02

and why would that be ria?

annobal · 21/09/2007 18:02

yanbu - EVER

Why?

justbeme · 21/09/2007 18:27

just put dd in her little lambs - ahhhh!
so how do i know when to change it? a case of opening the wrap and "feeling" the outside of the nappy methinks?

have a good hol charlie btw

daisyandbabybootoo · 21/09/2007 18:38

jbm....rule of thumd is every two or three hours. They need changing a bit more frequently than disposables.

justbeme · 21/09/2007 19:27

ok ta daisy - think i'll stick to disp for nightime tho - for time being.

mind you, shes cried an awful lot since havin this nappy on - ?!!

how r u feeling now?

bumperlicious · 21/09/2007 20:27

How are you doing daisy? hope dh is being sympathetic.

daisyandbabybootoo · 21/09/2007 20:34

I feel reallty wierd and spaced out actually and have had a wicked headache all afternoon. I've got both DCs in bed and having something to eat.

DH not home yet....but is bringing wine!

I had a look at the packet for my ADs and it does say that they can cause anxiety (for a pill designed to stop anxiety????). I don't know if I'm maybe just not on the right dose as I'm on the lowest dose possible. Am back at the clinic on Wednesday so I shall ask.

I bloody hate this though as I just don't feel like myself anymore. I've had DH here all week and have been OK, then he leaves me for a day and I go to pieces.

I think I will have a quick glass of vino collapso and then collapso in bed.

How are the boobs? Is it any easier?

riabutterflew · 21/09/2007 20:34

wtf just happened on eastenders?

off to catch up...
