Today was a busy stressful day for me. Firstly I missed 2 buses to get me to my appointment on time. Then I got to my appointment late to see my Pysch dr. Well I got there in painfully at 3.30pm and I was in total agony. She asked me how I'm going. I'm not doing as good as we hope. So she up'ed my anti- depressents and since I been sleeping alot she brought my epilum back down to 400mg per day. 100mg in the morning and 300mg at night. She said if I don't feel any better ring the clinic or go to ER. She asked me what a I worried about and I told her I'm worried about my husband's health that I'm scared it can get worse. I told her I struggling with keeping up with housework and cooking. She said she get my social worker to help get som support for me so I don't have to be under to much stress. She said if I don't look after my mental health then how can I be a proper carer to hubby.

Once I got out of appointment I sat in the clinic waiting for hubby and he didn't turn up so I went to the library and he weren't there. So I went to the closest phone and rang hubby on his mobile to find out where he is. So we met up at Big W. Then we went to have dinner at Hungry Jacks\Burger King and after that we went grocery shopping which cost us $90.

Well I'm home in agony. My right ankle and right lower back is killing me. I'm about to ring the Health Direct and see what they say.

  1. Hi Rochelle. do you think the change in Medication will help? I hope it does. I was sad to hear you where in pain. I am in pain now with my head (bummer) How are things going?

  2. Rochelle, I hope you are feeling better soon. I think you really need more help... and you need to put your health and happiness at the top of the list so you can take care of your hubby.

    It's just like when flying, if the oxygen masks drop you have to take care of yourself before helping others.... because you won't be much help to others with no oxygen mask for yourself.
