You can always come here and share your ups n downs. We all been there and will continue to do so. Keeping busy does help to a certain point and distracts your brain.

Griefs a rollercoaster especially when you donât know which one youâre grieving for. Things like this definitely help though, bottling things up is never good for you. Hope everyoneâs day is good today !

Spent majority of day in bed, had a sleepless night with Thalidomide again. Wonât be the first time, itâs happened on many occasions. Not been back on it long, 2 weeks if that.
Thatâs the crap thing the things they have to give you have not v nice side effects, wouldnât it be nice if treatment didnât make you feel crap
So everything today is an effort kind of feels the day has passed me by and everything is too much effort today for me.
Thereâs no harm in resting when you are feeling really worn out, your body must need it

Just got back from the hospital, back in on Friday. I can leave Thalidomide tonight, I donât know about anyone else here, but for me Christmas was a set back. I was telling my doctor about the negative impact social media had on me over christmas. Not really a nice time of the year, I look forward to the nights getting lighter.

Social media can be deceptive though, we donât know what goes on behind the photos. Some people use social media to show the world they are happy when in fact they are not. You will be happy one day too

@Malcolm2 your so right itâs very rare people
post all the crap going on in their lives, when your headspace isnât the best itâs better to avoid it, thatâs just my opinion everyoneâs different

I have depression so I know what itâs like to feel you have to put a brave face on and hide things.
Yeah me too thatâs why I avoid it as much as possible
@ Everyone
I donât put up anything too personal people I know maybe. Social Media does show you stupidity is on the rise and increasing. I find it a insult to my intelligence! If course none of it really matters I got more important stuff to concentrate on. Animals may well over take us as the intelligent species at this rate. Weather looking bad for tomorrow, sad that Scotland has had to cancel a lot of their celebrations.
