I saw the Psychiatrist today, as usual it was a delight to be there; I kept asking him to repeat things and he didn’t understand what I said. At least I was in a forgiving mood. We talked about why my mood’s dropped, he gave me the bog standard exercise, relax, don’t drink etc advice [...]

Slippage
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged CMHT, depression, doctors on July 13, 2009 | 1 Comment »
I’m slipping further and deeper into the murky, muddy waters. Was it my fault? Probably. Was it always going to happen? Who knows… There’s never going to be a clean cut answer to this, maybe it was a temporary up, maybe it was meant to stay good but I messed it up. I don’t want [...]
On a scale of 1 to 10

How useless was today?
I think we can say very.
And that’s only about my meeting with ED:IT. So… what now?
First of all, there was an issue with signing in. I got there 15 mins before my appointment time and waited 10 minutes to see the receptionist. I told her my name and who I was there [...]
That sinking feeling
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged birmingham, CMHT, manchester, university on April 19, 2009 | 4 Comments »
That sinking feeling is back, the one that hits at an inconveinient time, like on the A38 into Brummie land. Coming home from holiday, being in Manchester for a day and then going again really didn’t help, I wish I could have either gone from holiday to Brum, or not gone away (however lovely it [...]
Tomorrow/later (depending on how precise you want to be)
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged assessments, CMHT on March 19, 2009 | 4 Comments »
I can’t sleep. My scalp and feet are itching like hell… and I’m worrying about tomorrow. I’ve looked through the last months’ worth of entries, selected things that really represent in a way how I am feeling and I’ll print it out and take it with me. Even if I don’t use it, I’ll feel [...]
The speed at which things happen
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged CMHT on March 12, 2009 | 6 Comments »
Well, my referral to the CMHT has gone through, and it’s for next Thursday. I wasn’t expecting it to be quite so quick, considering yesterday the CBT lady/MHW said we’d draft a letter next time we met (in 6 weeks’ time!). So, I have that to look forward to.
I’ve had a call off my doctor, [...]
Shouting loudly in an empty forest

So, today I went to the doctors for a checkup and seeing how well I’m getting on with fluoxetine (I’m not). We discussed everything that’s going on and she’s keeping me on it for another 2 weeks to see if there is any improvement. I’m slightly upset by this because what’s going on is scaring [...]
So, today.

Three things. Three tasks to complete:
The doctors
That went surprisingly well, no “I’m going to call your parents” but, on the other hand, no action. However, that is purely my fault: I’m moving away to university, so he can’t refer me to the CMHT in Brum (well, actually he could, but he didn’t. Not entirely sure [...]
