Yeah, actually got one of the GP partners yesterday who was amazing, really listened, empathised and helped. Definitely felt supported. #MadSkyChat

Hey, I’ve been keeping fairly quiet but signed off work this week and next, having a tough time. But I’ve got my cat for lovely snuggles 😻 #MadSkyChat

For me it depends hugely on stress levels at the time. If I’m relaxed, managing well then I can eat all sorts and am open to trying new foods, if I’m struggling it becomes much more restrictive, and if I’m really struggling it’s the same every day!

I hope it’s somehow easier/ better than your mind is telling you…

I’ve been wondering all day if it’s really as cold as I feel or if it’s just because I’m feeling a bit rough!!

I want to get up to get myself a drink but Pepsi’s asleep on my lap so I’m not allowed!!! Cats are definitely in charge!!!

A beautiful old black cat sat in a very bare looking garden with an old wooden fence behind and the pole for the washing line.

I love how my Pepsi cat is currently following me everywhere… I’ve been working in the loft most of the day, with her by my side (on me if I was on a call with anyone because if I’m talking, obviously it’s to her!) but lunch in the garden and now at the end of the day, she joins me too. So sweet.

I don’t understand it but it’s always the way… and I don’t even take my time packing carefully (unlike my daughter who is AMAZING when it comes to packing!!!)

We didn’t sleep well while away either, had to choose between being too hot or opening the window to a very noisy road and trams… and typically then forgot how to sleep once home πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ #MadSkyChat

Love this! Always!! I took an expanding suitcase to France last week knowing I would want to buy things to bring back, and still struggled to close it πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I’m absolutely exhausted! Lesson learned, book the Monday off work too when travelling home on a Sunday! Straight into 3 really busy work days might have been a bit too much!!! #MadSkyChat

Oh lovely! I grew up in Ulverston so you’re very close to my childhood home!

Whereabouts in Cumbria are you? I grew up up that way!!

Lille was incredible thanks, it was 4 nights away with my teenage daughter. Just happened to coincide with the launch of Lille 3000 Fiesta so there was an amazing huge parade through the city last night too! We did some WW1 history too with a day trip to Arras!

I’m attempting the trains today too… an hour delay on Eurostar back from Lille and now on a delayed train up from London too! Trains are never good on a Sunday…

It was awful, they ended up putting me on 1:1 as I was so distressed and they then considered me a flight risk. No one should have to wait days in A&E.

I spent 7 nights in A&E a few years ago waiting for a MH bed, they said if they moved me to a ward the wait would have been even longer as it would have moved me down the priority list! A doctor gave me an eye mask and play doh, I was so grateful!!!

I’ve been wondering about seeing it, loved the preview, but I don’t often go to the cinema, didn’t realise it got political though… might avoid now and wait until I can stream it!!!

It’s Saturday, it’s not a work day, I do not have to study (although I might have to… simply because I love it!!!)

I’ve booked to attend- just creating my own PhD proposal into autism and eating disorders and considering doing an autoethnographic study as part of it.
