Glad to hear you're feeling less anxious - it's so easy for us to bury anxiety when there's a lot going on, for me I get through a stressful time, then it comes out afterwards.

And yaye on the whiskey, everyone needs a birthday treat (or four lol).

I get really bad hangovers, i get them when i just look at wine so "justify" that i may as well have a few glasses as have one glass. I always have milk thistle and find taking that before bed with lots of water helps. My biggest problem is that the hangover wames the hunger monster in me.

 

[Tessa2000]

Oh yes milk thistle is good I used to take that when I drank more often. Think I had a bit of a breakdown on a Saturday hence the huge amount of alcohol. Xx

LOLOL love it!

And me, I have to eat every carb in sight - all day!

Oh Tessa love, what caused that, was it delayed grief about your neighbour, maybe? I hope you're feeling more yourself now xx

Its definitely delayed shock about the neighbour. I am getting a lot of flashbacks to the night I saw him being carried out to the Ambulance. Can't really talk about it with anyone and wish I was closer to next door to support them more. X

 

[ladyfelsham]

You can only do what you're able to do hun, you need to look after yourself too - what about speaking to your GP for details of a grief counsellor? xx

 

[Tessa2000]

I am going to my GP end of March or beginning of April when I am back from Germany. Feel like a fraud about all this as I didn't lose a relative. Don't know why it effected me so much.
