Hi Donna, I'm so sorry to hear you've been having such a rough patch lately, I hope things settle down for you soon.
Your message about taking things one day at a time and being aware that things can vary so much for all of us is really important. One of the hardest things for me going through treatment was trying to be in control of the uncontrollable and being upset about not being able to make plans, but there were enough curve-balls thrown at me to finally get the message through that I needed to deal with what was happening in the present and be patient with myself and my recovery (easier said than done to a compulsive organiser ??).
I'm glad you've been getting some emotional support through the social worker, just being able to verbalise some of those feelings and fears can be a tremendous help.
Wishing you a much smoother path from here on, Jane xx
