I tried, but I put on a pretty good face with my MH nurse. I'm honest, but I don't feel the same when I'm there as when I'm at home. I did tell him that I feel like a hopeless case and a burden. He disagrees that I'm a burden, stating most clients in my position would feel aggrieved not like a burden but that it's my disposition to have a different focus than others.
I still feel like a burden despite him saying this.
He has given me a goal this week to try and get my days and nights in order - to have a clear transition between daytime and nighttime. I've got to try and get up by 12pm every day.
When my doc is back from leave we will look at increasing meds.
It should be an easier week.
