Hello Judith, Hello Mer and hello Gillian, thank you all for you concerns, i really do appreciate it. I have had my first session with pain management solutions, which consists of two weekly appointments, one is a group session and one is a one yo one session which both give advice, support, guidance and copping mechanisms/strategies about living with chronic pain both physically and psychologically.
Sometimes it gets to much and i am the sort of person that tries to reach out and deal with it as opposed to bottle things up, its nice to know that people out there care and i am truly thankful for that, Mer i love the phrase illegitimi non carborundum, it couldn't be more fitting, thank you for your time,
Thank you Mer, your concerns are very much appreciated and reassuring, i am work in progress buddy. Well, the dog latin worked Mer because you did sound pretty clever, not only that Mer, i learned something, thank you. How are you Mer? Hows life treating you buddy?
Hahaha, i like that, people around me better get used to a bit of Latin now, unfortunately Mer my mental health issues were getting the better of me and i could see my grades decreasing, it was a tough decision, so i thought it better to press pause and then continue when i am in a better place, the pressure that has been released in doing so has been really refreshing.
My mental health issues are that which take a lot of time and energy and is 24,7 operation, i fold under pressure and i don't do surprises, i have great support and the professionals helping me are amazing, so i am very lucky in that respect, i think the older i get Mer the more i realize that my mental health has to take priority, otherwise i am no good to myself or any one else.
I know you mean well buddy, although i am glad you didn't try to talk me out of it as i feel that would of added to the confusion at the time, also i am a 24/7 career for my mum so the chores list never shortens, i have a small list of Open Learn courses that are helping exercise the brain
It's good to know you're cracking on Mer and doing well with your studies and i agree with you "what is easy in life huh"? We got to get our heads down and take it on right. So yeah come October it will be time to press play and pick up where i left of, the OU have been awesome and apart from coming around and doing the degree for me, they really couldn't of done any more.
As much as i love Guy Forks and despair the politics of GB LTD as to how they can mess with a people, i feel very privileged and lucky to live in a country that can offer me so much support, things could always be worse right Mer?
