I'm so sorry things have been so bad. Fingers crossed the neuro'll be able to help when they see you.Update.
I have had my last counselling session and I'm a bit sad about it.
My counsellor brought me out of my rut and he triggered some thing that stuck me hard enough, it wasn't brutal but honest, a truth that I have used before when training work colleagues to understand what is required and also what I have used in coaching sports to help them be more positive when they are playing.
The message was: History is in the past, you can't change it, you are living in the past.
Only you can fix it, no one else, they can only help. You have to live in the present and look to the future.
I realised afterwards that, I knew that would have a huge effect on my thinking patterns, that I couldn't go back and be wallowing in memories.
It's still baby steps, the better half has warned me that she will start nagging me, if I don't start using my time better, there is lots to do. Up until a couple of weeks ago my attitude to doing the basic house chores, shopping and get my head around it all.
I have also had my first appointment with my neurologist. This was done by video, I was a shaking wreck, my anxiety levels went up, and my phone, I just couldn't keep it still, he did say I had a mild case of trembling related to my anxiety. However he did say that he wants to have a face to face appointment with me. So he can be more thorough and do tests.
My physical health is great and my brain is catching up.
It was my grandchildren birthday today and have had a good day.
Keep safe.
Thanks for reading.
*hugs*
