Hi @Phoenix_Rising You did a great job staying offline today - I've been on and off a bit but more off than on for a change.

Carrying an 'In Case Of Emergency' letter sounds like a really great idea. Should also give you a little piece of mind that you can show anyone what is happening and what they can do for you when you have a 'meltdown' - so hard to verbalise anything when you are in the middle of it!

Wow @Phoenix_Rising no wonder you have such strong feelings around 'seeking support". You actually did an extremely good job to get yourself to a place that you thought was safe and your were massively let down.

I believe that was me who said you shouldn't feel rushed to build the relationship - probably my own anxieties and trust issues coming out there!!! I understand though how you really want to be able to move forward and that this is something really important for you to do as quickly as possible.

Yes you are awesome .... and modest! .. but I also find your posts really interesting and insightful. So nice that you have a place that you can vent/write and connect here.

I am travelling ok. This morning I was feeling ok then started to struggle a bit around lunch time. Not doing too bad at the moment but am trying to control a little anxiety and still have a minor headache. I did sleep for nearly six hours last night (only woke up once) and am hoping to be able to sleep earlier tonight. My GP has recommended I take my meds earlier tonight to see if that helps. My only concern with that is that I will wake up when it is stil dark and that is not a safe place for me. I'll try not to worry about that too much at the moment - see how it goes!
