Evening @BPDSurvivor
I'm glad to hear that you got out for a few walks, and practised your breathing (even though you don't like doing it ). We have been very spoilt with the sunshine of late.
How I convey myself during Wednesday's appointment will be key, as to how my message is received. I need to be rational, logical and not too emotional. Like last week, I will have my notes printed out and if I find that I get too worked up or emotional (which happens very easily), I'll just hand them across to my psych to read and digest. Hopefully, I'll then have time to compose myself and we can have a discussion about my decision and request for certain meds.
I have some feelings of angst against my psych, so keeping myself composed can be a little challenging, particularly when I'm unstable as I am now. I feel he doesn't listen. But, I must try to give him the benefit of the doubt this week, and do my best to remain calm and composed with my messaging. Working on my health is supposed to be a team effort between the two of us, so fingers crossed all will go well and I'm just overthinking it all too much.
Thank you for letting me know about Advance Statements - didn't know anything about them.
Thanks for being proud of me! I am trying. It's bloody difficult, and some moments I truely don't think I can keep doing this anymore, but it's a day by day thing........or hour by hour sometimes.
Enjoy your evening 🙂
Best,
