This is so distracting

They're not very good people . I know I haven't met you in real life, but you are extremely kind and caring

Don't worry about it too much. I'm sure you'll be able to go to the next one. I don't think i'll be able to go as well, as I have a revision class in school just before it.

Haha sorry do you want me to stop talking to you?

well thanks hun, you are very lovely too had a cup of tea now though so feeling slightly calmer now!

But yer it is just quite annoying was looking forward to actually doing stuff with people but ah well we will have to both agree to go to the next one!

Hows the work going?

A recent review carried out in 2011 found that approximately 13.5% of the general population reports that they have experienced hearing voices: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21574793 Only a tiny proportion of those will ever need intervention from the mental health services.



Yes it's called being Billy Joe Average who functions as a perfectly normal human being The stereotype of people that hear voices is often someone diagnosed with psychosis and then medicated with antipsychotics for the rest of their life, when in reality the majority of voice hearers are just perfectly normal people going about their daily business. You never a hear a peep from them because the relationship they have with their experiences is a positive one rather than a negative one and as such they do not meet the diagnostic criteria for any illnesses http://www.psychminded.co.uk/critical/marius.htm

No! Don't stop

That's nice

I know

Not doing work at all. Don't even have a tiny bit of concentration. Really don't know what to do

even if you did (which you wont), you wouldnt be alone in doing that - im sure up and down the country a significant proportion of doctors are like that so much effort and work comes with the profession, it's hard to invest in anything else i reckon

Maybe we can all get together and yeah I suppose

haha ok then as long as you are sure I am not distracting you from work to much you can always talk to me on fb though if you want an actual conversation anytime!

But nah I am having real issues with the concentration at the moment and pretty sure I have done the stats stuff on my dissertation wrong, I really hate stats not really sure how I can help you concentrate because I have not mastered the art of concentration yet! hope you manage to do some at somepoint though hun

Crisis team haven't called me back 1 hour later. I don't think they understand the meaning of 'crisis' in their job title blerghhhhhh

im not sure if i'd want to marry a doctor. yeah, if i fell in love with a doctor i wouldnt say no, but i dunno - it would be like, medicine 24/7 and you'd never have time for eachother

Hmm yeah same, I'll try not to think of professions and just think about whats important..love (I sound like an old lady )

I'm still not doing work. Going to eat now. And yes, that would be nice. Would have done so already if I wasn't so shy .

Stats are pretty annoying . Don't worry about helping me, because I haven't been able to help you!

old ladies are cool theyre more wise than we are

True

how's the tea?

hopefully tomorrow can be a less miserable and more productive day

I have managed to do a little bit of work tonight which is good really, but not done any more of my dissertation! Back into university eating mode now though which pretty much means just eating snacks throughout the day .... fun times

But haha don't worry about it just talk at me on there anytime, I am not that bad!

But nah you have helped, it has been nice being able to actually talk to someone about all the feeling ****, don't have any one other then you to talk to about it so thank you

Lovely thank you, wish it had more milk though, dammit.

Hopefully, I reaaaaly must work tomorrow

It's nothing scary. I've seen a couple of different teams, and I've never had to be in a room with more than two people (and usually it's just one of them who does most of the talking). They'll probably just be discussing stuff like ways they could help you, getting a handle on your situation and that kind of thing. The people that you see will probably be something like a nurse or a social worker, and there will also be other people on the team like a psychologist or psychiatrist who you might end up seeing.

Remember that the aim of all this is to help you (cos you're important and awesome and stuff ), try not to worry too much, and be sure to post on here about any more questions you have.

i dont like milky tea! has to be stroooong
