ah - if they won't give you formal "sleeping pills" like zopiclone, you could try asking for a milder hypnotic like diphenhydramine. That's available OTC, so they'd really have no reason not to give it to you.

One thing I will miss about being at a low weight is how hard you're hit by pharmacology in terms of milligrams per kilogram. A little of something weak can knock you out completely, in the best sense of the phrase.


Hmm.. Ill see what I'm like in a while. I just want to sleeeeeep! I love my sleep but it's annoying when you actually can't sleep :facepalm:

I know right! They gave me something a few days ago and it knocked me out straight away haha.

You can do it, tomorrow will be a great step forward. If you keep it up you won't be in there for long. Just be strong :smile:

Felt really bad about 4 hours ago for no particular reason, was just thinking how **** everything is at the minute. Feeling came and went pretty quickly though and I went back to my Buffy marathon. i'm probably going to go to bed soon but I thought I'd post since I have done something productive today, I applied for a job.
It's a part time thing and I'm probably not going to get it since I have absolutely no retail experience but that's the first time I've applied for a job so I'm quite happy with myself.
I'm debating whether to register with a GP tonight (the surgery I want to go to let you register online) or wait and do it tomorrow. I should probably register so I can see if they will give me some different meds and get on the waiting list for whatever therapy-type stuff they want to send me for.

Does anyone else constantly wish they had a more 'normal' life? :frown: Literally every time I go on facebook I feel awful because everyone else has friends and hobbies and is successful and things. I don't know, probably a bit tired / hormonal but I just feel really upset this evening. :frown:


I think a few people on this thread dont bother with FB anymore because its too triggering, and i kinda feel it is for me too. So you're definately not alone :hugs:

For me it serves as a constant reminder that i haven't been in a relationship for around 5 years now. It makes me feel terrible that seeing other peoples happiness makes me depressed, but i can't help it.

Not slept one little bit, and I need a lot of energy tomorrow. Shouldn't have had that nap earlier. Maybe will take lucozade with me :tongue:

I feel like absolute **** right now had what 4 hours sleep grrrrr my body clock is seriously messed up! I have naps during the day cause I'm shattered and bored but then it messes up my sleep at night :facepalm: I just want my own double comfy bed back with my own room :cry2: I miss it!!!! That's not too much to ask for right??

On the bright side I get to go out for the day :yep: I have the strange urge to head down to the beach haha

Don't run - they'll only call the police (asu,ing you're under a section), and your admission will end up longer. Build up trust, and you'll get more day passes. I've tried to run myself, but never got far.

No not under a section but if I do leave my parents will never speak to me again that's the only thing holding me back otherwise I really would have been long gone by now.

That was my situation, too, until I was sectioned anyway... My parents wouldn't have let me live in their houses had i discharged myself.

just remember that, regardless of how difficult the regimen is and how unhelpful it may sometimes be, everything is, believe it or not, intended to help. (^∇^)

I've run out of propranolol and I have an exam in less than two hours. I'm trying very hard to avoid a panic attack... I guess at least the uni has put exam stuff in place so if I have a panic attack in the exam something something I don't remember.

I didn't realise I had magic powers!! The way I get ignored and people not realising that I exist has led me to believe I can be invisible.

Awww :console: people can really suck sometimes. I don't really know what to say tbh, but I know how that feels :frown: but that can't be generalized anyway, right? I mean, there are those people in your life that do care about you so much, even if they fail to show it!
