That is so adorable @BlueBay I know it is not quite the same but I have the same reaction when Toby is doing something naughty and then he smiles or puts his little head on me - I melt lol

It sounds like you have found a nice aquaintance that you can talk to - there are some really lovely people out there Hon and you seemed to have found one.

I have been to the pool today - it was lovely there - not many people and those that were there were all really nice. The physio is lovely and very caring. I talked to her about work today and what is happening - she seemed really happy for me which was nice. I can also talk to her about how I am mentally - often she can tell before I say anything - but today was a good day.

I have been watching The Block this afternoon - I love renovating shows - wish I could get my own house done though.

@Zoe7 Forgot to tell you we finished watching sons of anarchy. What an ending!!!! 

I cried. It was a very different show to what I would normally watch but I loved it. 

Niw have to pick another show. Any suggestions?

I know - what an ending - I definitely didn't expect him to do that. I think I kept hoping he would get out of the club and have a 'normal' life @BlueBay I don't have any shows that really come to mind. I was enjoying Empire until it went off air here. That is maybe one that I will keep my eye out for again. If you don't know the show it is about a family that run a music business and there is a lot of wheeling and dealing, family dramas, music of course and a little violence thrown in too. Might be something you could get into - a bit like a tamer version of Sons of Anarchy in the music industry

Sounds like you had a nice day @Zoe7 snd it’s great you have a caring Physio. 

Do you or anyone know how to stop being paranoid? @Shaz51@Faith-and-Hope

Hi @BlueBay

Sorry to read of your upset. I can relate. You are not being paranoid, you are feeling hurt and unsafe here. I hope you feel better soon. Ring the helpline if you need to telling them what made you anger and triggered on the forum. Thinking of you and sending a warm hug ❤️

[Zoe7]

That is a hard one Hon. Not sure I can help much there. It is really tough when you are seeing negatives in anything to not turn things around onto yourself. When you are feeling like the whole world is against you - as you have been feeling lately - then I think you let even the smallest things get to you and suspect that everyone is against you when the reality may be very different. Keep reaching out here @BlueBay and keep talking because we are listening BB and care about you

What are you having for dinner tonight @BlueBay - I haven't even thought about it yet  I might just have toast as I didn't have lunch until really late.

[BlueBay]

Just finished dinner @Zoe7

we had snitzel roast potato 

veggies and salad. 

I’m on a health kick. I’ve lost 5.2kg. Would like to lose another 5kg and then see how I feel and look. Just really watching what I’m eating and starting to walk. 

My doctor is still worried about my high blood pressure but he’s helping my mental health atm. He told me today that he needs to get my state of mind better ASAP. He is trying to make me see that I have the strength even though I don’t see it. 

Sirry im talking too much 😊
