Thanks. Alas another interview fail. I did get credible sleep in the end so i can't blame that. Would have been a challenging position- Supermarket every 6am to pick stuff.

How do I deal with feelings of uselessness when there's so much truth in them?
I'm stuck in the quicksand of my own making.

^^ I guess look at where those feelings are coming from, how much truth is there to them. Even if there is any truth in them then what about treating yourself with kindness, it's ok if you struggle with certain things, it's not your fault.

@ Neverwas - I'm glad you wake up as are lots of other folk

@ anxiouslondoner - Feel better soon AL

I wish I had the right words


Feeling awful with the pelvic pain. Eating seems to make things worse. I want to go home and hide under the duvet until it goes away.

"How do I deal with feelings of uselessness when there's so much truth in them?"

Do you use ticklists? I find physically ticking things off and reminding myself that I've completed x number of tasks that day helps.

Incredibly uncomfortable. I've got a mosquito bite on every limb and they're red and raging with itchiness and are making me feel all spiky and hot. And then I have a mouth ulcer that's just under my lip - so aggravating it is unavoidable. What even causes mouth ulcers.

Use Eurax cream for the itches. It stops itches immediately, no exaggeration. It's been a godsend for me over the years for insect bites.

Get a mossie net.. ? That is if the bites are from overnight in bed. Or you can get those smoking coil things to ward off insects, though they're probably not too good in an enclosed space.


My holiday officially comes to an end in a few hours and i'm feeling a little glum.

^ I think they were from an evening walk. I could roll around town in a zorb ball at night. Going back to work after a break is tough. It calls for a special treat in your lunch box to have something to look forward to.

Thanks, jam - I'll see if I can get my hands on some.

Thanks, BFG - I'm going to have to cream myself with your suggestion on one side and jam's on the other. A cream off!

Oh hang on, your suggestion was for ulcers. I'm going to pop to Superdrug after dinner I think because it's still red and raging!

@Nanuq - I do if I'm having a reaction to them, which I sometimes do. I probably should have done last night. Whoops!

I had my singing group and SA hit quite hard. Probably because I didn't know most of the song lyrics, my face is still swollen, my tooth still hurts, I'm stuck in a mental rut self development wise and I have money trouble.

Thanks Miss Dougella.

Bit short on funds at the moment. Am due to receive £150 from the DWP because I'm on PIP but it's taking it's sweet time in getting here. I also don't appear to have received PIP this week.

For about the next 8 weeks. Then I'm down to my housing officer only.

^ Hmm that's not long is it. Anyway, maybe you could bring up some of these things with your support worker and they can help you with tacking some of them? If they can do that.

I've been waiting all day for the breast clinic to phone. I don't think they are going to now as it's past their office hours.

Their letter said they'd contact me by the 30th, wonder if they put the wrong date on the letter? I've been referred for an urgent mammogram and needle biopsy, i.e. within two weeks. I felt awful telling my mum the news because she lost her best friend to breast cancer not that long ago.

Will have to call them on Monday I suppose. :/ Weirdly I feel more anxious about the phone stuff than anything else!

^^^ That's annoying Tubbs, although some clinics seem to be running at weekends aswell now (I think because they're trying to get waiting lists down) so there's a chance you might receive a call tomorrow. Either way i hope you can get in touch with them by Monday.

Hopefully you get a letter in the post tomorrow, Tubbs.

Sorry that you're going through all of this worry

I am feeling so bored lately, and nothing I do seems to lift it. It's not a case of finding something to do/occupy myself with - cause even then I'm still bored *sigh*

@ Tubbs - I'm so sorry that the clinic didn't contact you by the 30th as promised, as I know how very worried you must be feeling right now. I hope, as Dougella said, they'll phone over the weekend or on Monday at the very latest

@Mo34 - I think I can relate to that feeling. It's like even when I've got loads of things that I could occupy my time with I still feel that there must be more to life than this, kind of thing...It's a sort of restless feeling. It's difficult to explain and even harder to know what the solution is!



I'm feeling so worried about my physical health, something isn't right. Every day I'm being plagued by this pain and various other symptoms but I have zero faith in getting help for it anytime soon, if ever

Yes, it's very hard. I did drag myself of for a long (and lovely) walk this morning which has lifted my mood but even so... it's a short term fix I guess. I'm sorry your feeling it too.

^ yeah definitely. Like you I haven't a clue what the solutions is!

I'm sorry your still feeling unwell. It must be frustrating to not be able to get to the bottom of it or feel it's being dealt with properly
