To those that are starting groups - good luck! I have found groups to be beneficial. Just remember if you get ONE thing out of them, they have been worth doing. Its really not as scary as you think, everyone else is in the same boat and will all be very understanding of your pain and struggles.

Just woke up, feeling ok moodwise but a bit sick in the tummy and sore. I didnt find codine did anything for me either, and usually Im a light weight when it comes to pain meds! So Im giving up on the pain meds and just using the heat pack instead today.

Havent been recording my mood the last few days when it is most essential a bit mad at myself for that, I keep forgetting but I dont feel that is a good enough excuse.
