tks all.
Sigh. T reminds me that everyone who asks for home help has to go through the "toilet and refrigerator" check as I called it. That HE has to be here too is something else. I wish not, but it won't happen if he isn't. He's too nice to do this, as I don't think he has for any other patient. Maybe if it helps me, it will be something he offers for other PTSD patients having troubles like me? IDK. I think only half of the PTSD ppl are alone like I am.  Funny, you spend your "life" investing in a relationship so that you expect them to be there when you need them... and not. Often I wish I were dead; when I think that if I knew all I would have to go through (what I've gone through already) and ALONE... I wish I had died in the accident. guess the stress is just growing. grrrr

((((((((((((((( Sky ))))))))))))))))  Hang in there! It's good that your T will be there too. You will feel safer. Try to remind yourself that you have had enough bad luck in the past and it is unlikely that that will happen again. You survived the accident. You are still here for a reason. You got through that trauma and YOU can get through this too. Take care.

Sigh. Things have settled down a bit now, and now one of my fears is that I will let my guard down too far and open myself up to be hurt more than I would normally. Normally? What's that???
Anyway. I've had fit with sleep and lack of it this last week. Fatigue is my enemy. I'm forcing myself to go eat each day. Today a group of young bball players came into the restaurant, and roughhousing nearby, they knocked over their pitcher of soda and two large teens jumped up at the same time, backing their chairs into my table... I also jumped... and this pulled my muscles... and bones out of place...I'm guessing the illia... since the pain went searing down my (left)leg... still. I hobbled home and put heat on the muscles and then ice and the TENS...my hamstring aches too... the pain is tolerable...but without sleep my muscles will pull taut more and and and... just because I decided to eat. The first tropical depression of the season is approaching... sigh I'm not ready.

You said that right! T says he will show up earlier tomorrow than the assessment team is due... and it's a gated community, so I will have time to breathe even when anyone shows up.
My descriptions of what I'm feeling, thinking, I think "concerned" T. If it were up to me, I wouldn't be doing this. I have no choice.

Ok, T is going to be there for you. He is your T and he is there for YOU. He's on your side.
It's going to be tough tonight too- breathing! .......and mindfulness and gentle distractions. When tomorrow comes use all your best coping strats, and remember that I'm thinking of you too, and praying that things go as smoothly for you as possible.

yes. breathing is important... PT noticed some railing I think.. add to that the elevated bp which I have never had (well...accident scenes)
Yes T is coming early, wants to get there before the team. I hadn't even thought to ask him. He also talked to me about seating and talking arrangements... so I think he has it all in hand. It feels really....weird...you know? He isn't my spouse, friend, brother, etc you know? Isn't that who usually helps with these types of things?

assessment over. not easy (simple but difficult?) T helped bunches
 I think they might actually ask for stuff for me...they were surprised I had already made so many accommodations on my own... guess that shows them I NEED this, whether they provide for me or not.Sigh. ok now I can try and stablize. I see T Monday  I need the weekend to rest from this. I have to eat, and I was supposed to go to pharmacy and also pick up dog meds from vet... and it all seems too much now...today.. afternoon summer thunderstorms moving in.
