Mental health update

So the last two days have been kind of bla. Up and down. My mood has swung between dark very dark, and lighter, happy even.
Yesterday, 2 nurses from the weekend mental health team, barbara, and yasmin came out to my house to check in with me. That went well. They were really nice.
I didnt know them, they dont work in my local area, but they were easy to talk to. Of course, Nitro was all over them, and having him to break the ice was great.
We had a good chat, we discussed meds, sleep, anxiety, mood, a safety plan, suicidal urges and self harm urges.
Then this morning the plan was that one of them would call me, which they did. I spoke to barbara. I was feeling a lot brighter this morning, after getting a good nights sleep last night.
I’ve had a mixed day. Right now my anxiety is back, but I’ll be taking my night meds soon, and I’ll take a valium and I’m going to hope that will calm me down a little.
I have a feeling I’m not going to sleep much tonight. I have therapy tomorrow morning, and I know that that is going to be intense.

    I’m sorry to hear you’ve been having another couple of blah days and that your sleep was shitty as well. I’m glad you could talk to the weekend team though.
