Hi all, Some of you know me by now and have supported my a lot during very difficult times, so I just thought I owed you an update.  Last week was very hard and I even od'd, but I saw psychologist on Friday, and bashed things out with him.  Not sure how he managed to stay calm to be honest, but very glad he did!  Since then, I've cried, a lot, which is a very new and difficult experience for me, so I'm very pleased about that.  Also, at the moment I feel much more positive, about life, myself, and the future.  I just wanted to share this with you and thank you all for your kind words and much appreciated support which has also helped me through this.  I hope someone else reads this and realise there is hope and a life worth living.  xxxxx

    "Not sure how he managed to stay calm to be honest"

    It's their job, it is what they come to expect, what they have to deal with.

    Thank you all for your kind replies, means so much to me.  I realise I'm not out of the woods yet, and no doubt there will be setbacks, but at the moment, I'm really enjoying myself and plan to make the most of every minute. xxxxx

    Hi mami I am so pleased you are feeling so much better now.   Now if I was you I would write those words down and keep them somewhere you can see them if you ever felt that bad again.   Then you will realise it was only temporary and you did come out of the other side. 

    Thank you for letting us know.  Take care  Bev xx

      Thank you.  Hope comes from mysterious places, never give up on looking!  Small steps can take you far, try not to rush things, you've come this far, and can continue.  Please take care, and always be kind to yourself. xxx
