I don’t feel as tormented this evening. Wonder how long this will last

Soon I will take a sleeping pill and my quetiapine.

I might ask for a bit of diazepam tomorrow.

@Qwerty you look terrible , your very lucky to be alive. I would get talking therapy number from your gp or see if mh can offer you anything quick, sooner rather than later. And yes diazapam they probably wont give you in conjunction with the sleepers.

Was your neighbour living on his own i take it? Has he family to keep you updated?

Oh cool, glad they did what needed to be done.

Im so sorry to hear about this accident.

I hope with time, it starts to dissipate from your memory a bit. As it was quite an extreme event, cannot even imagine myself.

Hey @Qwerty. I can’t believe I didn’t see this earlier. I am so sorry for everything you have been through. My heart goes out to you. Hang in there, and take your time to heal. You have so much support from the forum, and it sounds like you have support IRL as well. Use it when you need it; don’t hesitate to ask for help. Hugs to you.

Hey @Qwerty how are you holding up? Do you see a therapist? I wonder if they can help you deal with those thoughts.

@Mars I don’t have a therapist. I’ve had therapy in the past though. Mainly to do with the trauma of birthing my youngest son. I need to find another one now.

@jukebox that’s a sweet gesture. And funnily enough a friend of mine brought me flowers yesterday.

Almost 4am. Think I might be up for the day. At least my sons are in school today so I can rest and catch up on sleep if need be.

jUst checking in on this thread. Hope you are feeling at least a little better @Qwerty . I know sometimes injuries like this feel worse a for a bit before they feel better.

i think thats a really good idea… though we might be able to brush off old trauma in our life as not really needing therapy, this was no doubt a hugely traumatic experience and very recent… Therapy could really help i think.

I’m glad you got flowers…I’m so sad you are so banged up…emotionally and physically…I hope you find peace.

Morning guys. Just gone 4am and I’m up.

Lost it with CMHT yesterday on the phone. Won’t go into detail but thankfully the lady I spoke to was nice and understood.

I hope you’re all good.

I’m listening to music now and chilling
