  • Interview

    Saturday, July 19, 2008 | An Anxious story

    Mencap held an open day yesterday to interview potential employees.  I couldn't decide whether it was a job I was suited to but decided to go anyway.  The interviewees were very pleasant but from what they told me, I don't think the job was for me.  It seems I'd have been working alone at times and with epilepsy, I can't really take on sole responsibility for anythi...

  • Journal Entry for December 7, 2008

    Sunday, December 7, 2008 | An Anxious story

    I think i might be getting a little depressed.  I just haven't had the motivation to move this last couple of mornings - I've given church a miss today.  It's also dawned on me that I haven't been eating or sleeping all that well for the last week or so.  I hope it's not depression sinking in  again as I've had it before.  I've probably spotted...

    Wednesday, September 16, 2009 | An Anxious story

    I don't know what happened but I woke up in hospital being told that I'd been rushed in by ambulance suffering from status epilepticus.  Apparently I'd been going in and out of seizures for the previous three days.  Friends from church were fantastic, with someone visiting every day, bar the last one.  One friend in particular was good to me - looking after my flat in m...

  • Mystery (Part 3)

    Friday, October 2, 2009 | An Anxious story

    The bad memories are coming back now - the reasons this may have all happened.  I'm now faced with the issue in hand and figuring out how to deal with it.  It's horrible - I can remember how I felt at the time and it's beginning to overwhelm me again.  I was tempted to SI again earlier which scared me a little.

    Sunday, October 18, 2009 | An Anxious story

    I am told I am obsessing too much about whether to go back to school after dealing with moms death only 2 months ago.I know I have to stop that .I have told myself to take it one step at a time , I guess you would call it "BABY STEPS'. I 'm driving myself crazy.
    Slow down girl, Rome wasn't built in a day.look at your options , you will do fine.
