Not Coping

[Birdofparadise8]

I was thinking about it, but I might do it later in the week @ENKELI 

Creme franchise is so good. 

How are you feeling?

[ENKELI]

@Birdofparadise8 I'm okay, just sick of the sinus pain and snotty nose! Blech!

Risotto requires a lot of stirring and I don't have the strength in my shoulders, which is where the cooker comes in handy.

Just had a call from my mum, everything seems to be a drama with here atm!

How was the lab @Birdofparadise8 ? 🙂

I hope it went ok, and youre ok this afternoon xx

I am feeling fine after the injection.. I have been told to rest, however that is not my default setting from the factory, so I have to install new software I think hehe 😉 🌺

[Former-Member]

Thank you so much @creative_writer 💜🌺🙂

Thats understandable - disclosure can be a double-edged sword sometimes xx 🙂

Yes it would be great if they offered external supervision! Do you have a peak body association in Au for social work? I was wondering if youre a student member 🙂

Ah, that makes perfect sense, regarding the counsellors at uni 🙂

Hey there @ENKELI 🙂 xx

Thank you so much - I really appreciate that xx 🙂 🌺💜

The injection for shoulder went really well, the doc was a complete professional - didn't feel a thing 🙂

Hopefully the cortisol starts to work in the next few days, and I can do some decent Physio while its reduced inflammation.

See a man about a kidney (or two) tomorrow morning 🙂 

So much of the no boundaries here... "Id like some blood, some pee, and some of whatever else we can maybe use to prop up our microscopes for the day" hehe 😉

Oh no, I'm sorry to hear about that @ENKELI 

I hope she is okay. 

Yes, it requires a lot of string. 

I just got an interview for an administrative medical receptionist job. 

I'm feeling flat, though I was before getting the call. It just happens. I get to talk to KHL tonight. She finally emailed me back yesterday to apologise for taking so long to reply and to say that we could talk about what I needed to discuss with her. 

I don't see my psych on Wednesday either. So sad. I've been emailing him since last week, and then he sent me a final email saying this is the last one he will reply to before he is back at work. I thought he wanted me to stop emailing when he said final email. Anyway, I replied back with a really long email. I will look forward to seeing him. So many things to talk about. 

The lab was alright @Former-Member 

I hope your arm improves. 

I'm a bit low. 

[ENKELI]

@Birdofparadise8 so it sounds like your support mechanisms are missing, ie your psych going on leave and KHL taking so long to respond.

It sounds like your psych is trying to set boundaries with you. Letting you know that he will be on leave and it's not appropriate for him to be in contact with you during his time away.

I think you might have difficulty with healthy boundaries and that can be something that is hard to change. My ex friend had no boundaries whatsoever and it made life quite difficult. I won't go on about that because I've been told I talk too much about that situation but setting boundaries is something that we all need to do to create healthy relationships.

Mum will be okay, she just likes to complain a lot about her laptop not working and expecting me to drop everything so I can fix it. She doesn't understand I'm not an IT specialist, God love her!

Good luck with the interview, I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers 🙏 ❤️ 

[Birdofparadise8]

Oh, it's okay for him not to talk to me while he is on leave. I understand that. I wouldn't want to either hahah. 

I just mean it's sad I'm not seeing him this week with how things have been. @ENKELI 

Thank you. Mum only applied for the job last night for me. 

Hhahaha I hope she can get it fixed then. 

Who said you've talked too much about ex-friend?

[creative_writer]

@Former-Member workplace gossip is a thing, I am naturally very guarded. We do have a peak body which I can get a student membership of. University might offer external supervision from the placement, I’ll need to see closer to the time

[ENKELI]

@Birdofparadise8 I read your response wrong, sorry princess. Now that I've reread it I see where I glossed over. Forget the boundaries stuff!! Lol, brain fog with sinus infection. 

It doesn't matter who said I talked too much about ex friend, I'm just mindful not to anymore. I've become pretty good at internalising lately!!

Have you got something to keep you occupied tonight? I mean I'll be here but if you're feeling flat I thought you might have something to do to keep your mind off the sad.
