Re: Update on my life - might come back temporarily?

hey @Chloe234 🙂

ahh it is so lovely to hear from you, i’ve really missed having you around!!

it sounds like you’ve been dealing with a lot, and i just want to say how proud i am of you for pushing through and still standing strong, even when things have been really hard.

it’s amazing to hear that you’ve been able to turn things around with college, going from U’s and E’s to a C is no small thing, that’s such a big win and having that support plan in place shows how much you’re fighting for yourself, even when it’s tough - i genuinely am so so so proud of you chloe!!!

i’m really sorry to hear things with your eating have been harder lately, but i think it’s so brave that you’ve let your psychologist in and are starting to explore that. Same with speaking up about needing a female counsellor, advocating for what you need is such a huge and empowering step.

i can’t even imagine how scary the situation with social workers must feel for you right now, but i hope you can be kind to yourself and remember you did the right thing by speaking up. even though it’s bringing a lot of emotions, it sounds like you’re protecting your future and that’s really powerful.

i am really glad you might be coming back to the mix, even just for a bit, you’re so valued and loved here, and we’ve all missed you so much.

you have got so much strength in you, even when it doesn’t feel like it

Update on my life - might come back temporarily?

Heyy

Its been a while since ive been here aha! Obviously as most of you know I left the mix but there is slight possibility I might come back just for a short period of time just so I can try and figure out my footing.

Since I've left I have definitely not had things the easiest. So here's a brief update broken down:

College

Before i left I shared about some stuff going on with college and them potentially wanting to kick me out. Ive had a couple more meetings since then and now i basically have a support plan in place which requires for me to do things like see safeguarding every morning when im in college, for dad to be contacted every time I disclose something to them and then I also now have an orange spot which allows me to leave lessons when i need to but...im not being kicked out 🥳 my grades were also U's and E's however ive now managed to get it up to a C in a recent mock i did so thats another win, yay!

Eating (tw)

okay so as some of you may know, my eating is something ive struggled with for years but unfortunately it did get quite a bit worse. Before it was kinda something that i didnt really talk to anyone about however now my psychologist knows and we're going to try look into some support around it as we think some of it is trauma linked

CAMHS

So ive been seeing my psychologist for a while now so not much has changed with that however i did finally speak up about not feeling able to be fully open towards my psychologist because hes a male. So hopefully in about 4 weeks I should be able to transfer to a female trauma Councillor where ill hopefullybe more open and also begin to explore different traumas more

Social workers getting reinvolved (tw)

now this is one of my biggest fears and is actually petrifying for me. I never thought that it'd happen but I spoke up about something that's been happening for a while when I went to a family members house and college had to do a social worker referral. I'm yet to have seen them however they're going to carry out a social worker assessment and I think the first time they're coming to see me is next Tuesday. I'm in peices about this and regret saying anything because they are a massive trigger for me however I will have to push through as I can't reverse time unfortunately

There is a fair few other things that have gone on since but I feel like these are some of the key things. Currently I'm on Easter break so I might be popping up on here and in chats a fair bit as I have no support network for atleast 2 - 3 weeks. I've missed you all so so much

Mental health safety review

So I have a review with my doctor at 4:40 and I’ve written down how I’m currently feeling etc and that’s fine and I also need to ask them about this stupid C-ptsd shit because my college don’t even care whatsoever

Also when I had the meeting with my SMHP he showed me my camhs document and now I want a copy as it’s not on my app and it basically tells me what camhs were ment to do but didn’t, will my doctor print off a copy if I ask?

Vacation 😎

Hello all! I hope everything is as sunny and pleasant where you are as it is for me!

I just got back from a few days away in Berlin (saw some adorable animals!) and it got me thinking, in an absolute ideal world, where would you absolutely love to go and what would be on your "have to do" list when you got there?
