Flora Report post Posted April 8, 2008 Anyone want to join me in a sobfest? I'm really really down in the dumps just now. Nothing major, just a combination of things. I can't seem to shake it off. I'm permanently tired and unmotivated and just can't be bothered to do anything at all. Having major hasstle from my ex (or rather the organ grinder... his new wife!). These aren't really reasons, just adding to my general state of feeling blue Flora Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

baddad Report post Posted April 8, 2008 Bu-limey! Wot a load of old misery-gutses! Seriously, this seems to be the way many are feeling at the mo My personal theory is that it's sort of a variation on SADS: Winter - or at least odd/strange/changeable weather - has just dragged on and on and on this year, and every time we just start mentally to come out of hibernation another icy blast up the urals seems to hit us . It's playing havoc with our body-clocks, which don't know from one day to the next whether to send us shinnying up trees in search of nuts an berries or off to our caves for another 3 months kip... Good theory, eh? Dunno about the rest of ya, but i know this counts for flozza and it's certainly part of my current doldrums... TRANSITION. I've spent the past two years or so planning, fretting, dreading all of the cr*p that the transfer from primary to secondary is going to make. I finally get the call, and even though it's all good it brings crashing into stark focus all of the other STUFF that 'good news' entails, and after a brief period of staggering around looking pretty dumbstruck I'm back to planning, dreading and fretting for all of that. It's crazy, but totally basic human psychology - When you're busy fighting the fire you can't see the effects through the smoke. Smoke clears, and you suddenly realise that the fire-fighting was only the first part of the job, and there's a mile of other mess to contend with before you can sit down and put your feet up. Ouch! <'> The Good News? Whatever's left to clear up you ARE a big step closer to the cuppa and feet up moment. Stock up on hobnobs. Summer's coming...

ScienceGeek Report post Posted April 8, 2008 It has been really confusing over here.. In the last week we've had hot sunshine, rain, snow, hail and then hot sunshine again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flora Report post Posted April 9, 2008 I feel better already.... See, misery does love company I think baddad's theory is spot on. Not only have we weird weather to contend with, but after a long period of fighting with the LEA with one aim in mind, but now I've achieved that goal there are indeed a load of other things to contend with.

elun1 Report post Posted April 9, 2008 <'> <'> <'> <'> To everyone. Your theory's spot on BD! Definitely joining. Life is cr4p at the moment here too. Fighting big battle over Os ed provision, tired of the incontinence thing now, just cant seem to sort it - I think at this rate I'll still be changing nappies when he's 20! I used to be glad to escape to school (part time teacher) butI find that hard at the moment too. Elun xxxxxx Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScienceGeek Report post Posted April 9, 2008 My brain is feeling in a fuzz, like looking at everything through cloudy water (or the water at the beach in sheerness). I can't face being here (uni), but can't face the journey home either. I don't know what to do. I feel like I'm being swallowed up by all the sound and bright lights. My head is killing and everything sounds extra loud. I hope everyone else is having a better day. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lorryw Report post Posted April 9, 2008 I worry about stuff all the time. Then I remind myself that worrying will make no difference whatsoever and try to stop. Works for a little while and then they all creep back. They do say a worry shared is a worry halved, so here goes halving mine. 1. Mum very ill and about to undergo investigative tests. 2.Son not settling in autistic specialist day care I fought so hard for him to get, no idea what to do if they say they cant cope with him 3.We need a new roof, latest quote was for �11,000 plus vat. BUT nice things happening.... 1.Off on holiday to a lovely isolated beach cottage in Wales on Saturday 2.Bought a lovely piece of furniture on ebay which is coming tomorrow 3.Sweeney Todd DVD (Johnny Depp version) arrived yesterday. 4 Desperate Housewives is on tonight The sun is shining!!

Kathryn Report post Posted April 9, 2008 Flozza, and everyone else <'> <'> <'> I'm not so much down as really stressed and overwhelmed. Work which is normally non stressful and enjoyable is a nightmare with extra work for the forthcoming inspection in a couple of weeks. I lie awake imagining worst case scenarios. And the demands of home and family don't stop in the meantime! I feel as though I'm doing neither job very well at the moment. K x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kathryn Report post Posted April 9, 2008 Kathryn <'> <'> It sounds like an awful lot to manage at once.Karen. Thanks Karen - but the pressure will at least ease off in a couple of weeks so there is an end in sight, which is more than some people can say.
