My head is pounding and I've got bad pain in my side. I don't feel well at all! Took painkillers and slept - didn't help. Gona try a bath and see if that helps :-(
-
Spent a lovely day with my sister and my beautiful niece. We put the Christmas tree up at my sisters and Nevaeh is now crawling and she went straight for it! lol
-
Would so love an Elaine Nicholson hug right now! I'm feeling pretty lonely and would love nothing more than to see her smile at me and hear her say it'll be ok. I hate being so far away from her sometimes! Time to pick myself up and do something to help me feel better - perhaps some drawing...
-
Can't believe I slept till now! Shows how sleep deprived I've been. Hasn't made me feel any better though - I feel rough as!
-
I wish I could get across to people just how horrible it feels when I have to try and cope with unexpected change or a complete lack of structure and routine, because I feel like I look so stupid when I break down in tears over what looks like such a non-issue to everyone else. Having said that credit where it's due, my manager has been incredibly understanding yet again.
-
I've made my foot go dead from sitting on it again and now have got major pins and needles while the feeling is coming back! I don't even notice it's happening until I try to move because sitting on my feet feels so comfortable. Just one of my many quirks!
-
Had a fab session with my therapist and a lovely evening with Robert Mann. Happier Sonia today

With a supportive kick up the backside and nudge in the right direction from Elaine Nicholson, I have managed to overcome my feelings of stress and anxiety and deal with the situation that was causing it. I'm proud that I listened to what was said and did something, rather than letting the anxiety win and just saying 'I can't do it!' I am definitely making changes - small ones, but changes none the less!
-
Feeling anxious and stressy. Why did I ever go along with something I was never comfortable with - stupid, stupid girl!
-
Once again I've messed up! It's hard when you interact not based on instinctively knowing how to, but based on what you've seen and heard others say and do in similar situations. I responded how I thought I was supposed to in the circumstance, and have only served to land myself in a pretty messy situation!
-
I rather stupidly tripped over my dressing gown on the floor and landed with by big toe bent under and all my weight on it - ouch! That'll teach me to leave clothes lying around on the floor!
-
ouch
I trip over my feet even when there's nothing on the floor hehe!

-
I'm really regretting falling asleep earlier because now when I should be asleep (and really want to be asleep!) I really can't sleep!
-
I fell asleep without meaning to and have just woken up. I've got a horrible headache and want to go back to sleep!
-
I feel like I'm doing really well this week. I'm handling things a lot better than I have been and I feel proud of myself for it. It's actually making me feel gutted I'm not seeing my therapist to tell her about it. I don't often feel proud of myself so I know I've done good and I kind of feel like shouting it from the rooftops!
-
Looks like the Valley is going to flood. Will be interesting to see how the roads are tomorrow for getting to work.
-
Finally, after 7 months of living back at home, I have TV in my room connected to an aerial that works - yay!
-
I'm so glad my mum is home and safe - I was so freaked out when I got home and no one was here. I somehow totally forgot she was in Bangor so would have been affected by the flooding. She was so stressed out when she got in - sounds like what she endured was pretty hellish. I really do feel for all the people affected by the floods!
-
The wind caved in my kitchen window - fixed now. I'll see it when home for xmas. 3 trees down on my street.

-
Bad, bad, bad day! I hate how I'm feeling and so wish I could have an Elaine Nicholson hug right now! I can feel a drawing coming on because I need to try and calm myself down.
-
Just made a vegetarian lasagne completely on my own. Now just got to worry about when to get it out, and the taste test that's to come. Here's hoping I don't poison my mum and Clive!
-
Well that's me well and truly turned off from the XFactor - what a joke!!

Are you ever going to post on the forums again?
