~ The Toolshed ~

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

I also have a few squishmallows @PeppyPatti I love them, but I've capped myself at 2 so now I just buy them and give them to my nieces 😄

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Dreamy  Oh no I’m sorry you are also sick today that isn’t good. There’s a lot of colds and some flu going around at the moment. It’s ok there’s no pressure to respond whatsoever. Absolutely have to take care of yourself and only do anything when you are up to it. 


It’s good you got one puzzle done today. It’s good you’ve got some sunshine where you are too. A bit of natural vitamin D is good and brings a little warmth. You’re probably buggered with being sick and having mental health illness together at the moment. Cold and flu bring fatigue of their own and yucky symptoms. 

I’m just hanging on today by a thread. Things are tough. I feel terrible. 

 

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Cuddlebear it's a horrible feeling that's for sure. 

 

I've started my next puzzle, well I'm sorting out the pieces anyway. This has hit me like a tonne of bricks.

 

I know that feeling of hanging by a thread, it sucks. I'm sorry you are feeling this way sweet, I'm sending you hugs ❤️

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Dreamy  That’s awesome you started the second puzzle. What type of puzzle is it? Sounds like the cold you have is getting worse at night time as they typically do. Do you like herbal teas? They can help soothe the throat and body a little. 

Yes hanging on by a thread but the hospital just sends me home and says becs are full and tells me to contact mainstream mental health. I’ve already contacted mainstream who said I’m too chronic sick and need to be in hospital. It’s heart breaking and I’m not going back again just to be sent home with nothing.

Cuddles @Cuddlebear ,

 

I'm so so sorry to hear what has happened. It sounds so hard to be bounced back and forth like that. 

 

So you are home at the moment?

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Cuddlebear the puzzle I'm doing now is stitch 😊. It definitely seems to be getting worse but I'm not sure it's cos it's night time. I only drink green tea and hot chocolate. My throat oddly enough isn't sore, my chest on the other hand and my lungs hurt. 

 

That's just heartbreaking, I'm so sorry you get turned away when it sounds like it's really where you need to be. I know how messed up the mental health system is. Just know that we are here for you, you are not alone. Sending you big hugs sweet ❤️

Gentle hugs @Cuddlebear 

 

keep reaching out, but we do learn when some so called support is not there for us. I pray better things show up for you soon.

I volunteered at a zoo before COVID. I talk to the animals….lol… for a long time, posting on the forums was my main social network.

Re: ~ The Toolshed ~

@Dreamy  Thank you for 🙂 How are you feeling this morning? I hope you were able to get some rest as you’ve been sick.
