How are you doing? How was your week, was there anything particularly nice or something worrying this week?

I don't have any group support meetings to go to any more, because the center has changed its schedule.  They've eliminated the groups I attended, because no one who works there wants to be there those hours.  I don't know what to do.

I twisted my ankle in January and it's been hurting ever since.  A few weeks ago, I fell and it got worse.  Today, I fell, and it's even worse.  The doctors haven't been any help.  They want me to get an MRI but the insurance company refuses to pay for one.

@WharfRat

Hi, Rat,

I'm sorry to hear about your ankle.  You have clearly injured it and now it is in a weakened state, so it is not strong enough, and not healed completely, not to repeat the injury.  I say this because when I was younger, I had chronic weak ankles.  I have ripped tendons, torn tendons, fractured, sprained and broken them both at least 80 times.  Right now you need to stay off them as much as possible.  Can you put ice on the injured area for 15 minutes at a time, whenever you have the strength to get the bag of ice?  When it feels better, you need to start ankle exercises.  They are easy.  It pretty much consists of going up on your toes, then down on your heel, WHILE HOLDING ON TO SOMETHING.  You don't want to reinjure your ankle while trying to strengthen them.  Then you need to roll onto the left side of your foot and then the right side.  You can also look on youtube for videos about sttrenghtening your ankles after an injury.  These exercises saved me and my ankles.  Go slowly with the exercises.  and Be sure to hang on to the back of a chair or a table while doing them.  

Take care my friend.  They will improve.

I have a lot of worries, and am not doing well mentally or emotionally.  I don't want to think about this too much right now.

Sorry to hear you are not well 💙. When things feel overwhelming it helps me to take out some time just for myself. What could give you some comfort now?

My week was up and down, but doing ok.


I miss having a therapist, but I hope to have a new one in a few weeks.


I was feeling very concerned about my position at work early this week, then was shocked when I found out it's more secure than I ever would have thought. I am always afraid I am going to get fired. Then they keep surprising me by making me feel like they want me there.


My anxiety is playing havoc with my feelings towards Hubby this week too. So ups and downs there,


All of it has been manageable which reaffirms that I can do some of this on my own (as my former therapist reassured me many times before he left).

@HealingGriz

I am glad you find what happened in your life manageable and feel it reaffirms that you can do things on your own. Having worries about work and about home situations can be tough. Hope things will improve soon for you.

@soulsings

Good that you could sleep again in your own bed and feel rested! Nothing is better than one's own bed!

Hope there will be more cooler times for you, the heat wave is quite challenging for many.

Hello. I'm doing ok right now. But tomorrow my son is going to Hawaii to spend time with my parents. I suggested the trip so he can relax and get out of the toxic situation at home for a while. Unfortunately, that means I will be without my hiking partner for a while. I hope I will be able to endure until he comes back.

I got rejected from another job application even though I did well in the interview. It took a week for them to respond which made me really worried and now I know why. 

Tomorrow I have another interview but this is in-person which I don't really enjoy. At least it is really close to where I live.

@wandamx26 sorry the first one did not work out.

There are a lot of advantages to a nearby place of employment. Long commutes are expensive and time  cnsuming. Good luck.
