I've been knitting this forever! I'm setting myself a goal to do at least 12 rows a day, preferably more, because I'm desperate to see it turn out. I'm knitting some dog jumpers to sell, probably just on etsy. Is there anything you guys would buy? I'm not doing it for profit, just to find my knitting!

Sad day for the NHS

All drama today for junior doctors.  We will have to see what happens.

I heard back from my IAPT assessor and they’ve offered me CBT for anxiety via their service with a 17 week wait.  They don’t offer primary care therapy for bipolar, which has to be in secondary care (yes I know but HOWWWW)

And she suggested I self-refer to a self-management program for people with chronic conditions and gave  me the contact details.

Saw a different GP this morning who has given me 14 x 7.5mg zopiclone, so hopefully that will help.

Just a bit blah.

17 week wait!! Will we ever get to a place when mental health is treated the same as physical? Sending hugs xx

Thanks for the hugs!  Sadly I have had even longer waits for physical health problems - currently in the middle of a 26 week wait…

Good job the 17 week wait is ‘just’ for anxiety and not anything more severe!

I would recommend either changing to a gp who takes you more seriously, or approach pals. Or write to your local mp explaining your situation and registering your concern abour how others in similar situation may be effected. I've had to do all three and all been really helpful!

My car was broken into outside my house.. But all they stole was a case of 24 coca colas? They literally just left my satnav on my seat??? What even is this world?!!!

So two years ago the same happened but they didn't even steal a think except MY BACK CUSHION.

Money, an ipod, and my expensive car stereo were all left out in the open.

Cue paranoia.

Years of being told I'm stupid and worthless make self-care a guilt-inducing and frustrating task, but maybe I'll be bit easier on myself after a break up and a fortnight very barely managing to stay on the right side of the thin line between crisis and coping. 3pm is acceptable bath time, right? #lushcosmetics #selfcare #bpd #depression #anxiety #ptsd

Our littlest babies! Middle three are my girls, rest are Ellie's boys! In order, we have Splodge, Christof, Olaf, Horlicks, Wren, Roger the girl, Teddy, and Sven. All with their own personalities and eccentricities. Like Horlicks who loves being down tops and Splodge with his adventurous death wish. #ratsofinstagram #ratstagram

One of my favourite things is after having a long hard day of being glamorous, getting home and putting on slippers and a big hoodie, and lounging around all cosy but with immaculate makeup
