It’s been a while

Hi everyone,

How are you? Haven’t been gone of course, as I’ve been still giving some likes. Just haven’t been posting at all. The lady who was cleaning my apartment passed away not too long after my last post. One of my friends and I went to the visitation for about a half hour. On the positive, the newsletter at work is starting up after being defunct for years and I made my first contribution.

What’s not still great is my mental health and it seems that my brother is trying to control my life even more. My psychiatrist had to cancel our last appointment and rescheduled for November 1st. And my most recent case manager is out indefinitely as we were supposed to meet again today.

I’d really like to think that I’m just “making a mountain out of a mole hill” over my life overall as in the last couple of months, I’ve been socializing more. But, who knows, maybe even that’s been contributing to it.

Always a good sign

Yeah, it could be, but, I think I consider myself a highly sensitive person, so it’s not my default mode. And of course, the pandemic is dragging on and I’m not getting enough support from the mental health clinic, either.

Do you have a peer support specialist? Or someone you can speak openly to? That might help

I could just ask the OT at the recovery centre if I could speak with her privately on Wednesday. Everyone that attends on the days I go know what I’m going through as I’ve been talking about it during programming, appropriately of course.
