    Can’t breath. When my sister is not in my room and when get a chance. Probably Monday now. I’m gunna ring gp to get blood test to check my iron levels and to see my sugar levels. If they say it is Anxiety So don’t need to (they did last time) I’ll just say well if it is knowing I’m not anemic Or diabetic would help.

    @Salix_alba_2019 How you feeling now? IT's great that you're able to identify an onset, that means you can do all that you can to help yourself to feel better, and if it happens - that's okay too. I hope you get some good rest tonight and wake up feeling a little better <3 

    @Shaunie Sending hugs, what's worrying you at the moment? I'm here if you want a chat! Sometimes late at night we can get ourselves into a spiral of thoughts so remember to practise some self-care and you can always battle the thoughts in the morning if they're still there with a fresh pair of eyes <3

    Hey @Shaunie big hugs we’re all here if you ever need anyone to talk to. Is it possible to contact your gp they may be able to help ?
     Sorry I can’t offer better advice, we’re always here if you ever need anything  <3

    @Shaunie Ahh I see, what's making you think you've done that? If it's a worry, I would defo recommend speaking to your GP about it! I'm not very knowledgeable about that area so I don't think I can be much help about that. Is there anything you think you can do to help settle your worries tonight so you are able to get some rest?

    @SpaceOtter

    I’m hoping the pain will go when I wake up 
    but  I’m going to my gp tomorrow for blood tests and I will ask her if this looks like it could cause nerve damage and if need to see someone for it and how to take care of it. But know she won’t be able to say much as not much time

    It hurts to move my arm. It has done before but not this bad. Then I was reading stuff about nerve damage 😭😭😭😭😭😭

    @Shaunie The internet is a dangerous place when it comes to searching medical things! Remember the internet doesn't replace a GP, I often find that Googling symptoms makes something awful come up when nine times out of ten it's nothing big :) 

    Trigger Warning - Self-Harm 
    I'm wondering if you have self-harmed recently and that's what could be causing the pain? There's plenty of ways we can try to minimise the pain you're experiencing if that's what's causing it <3

    Yeah it was recently but it’s hurting even when I’m not moving it 😭. 
     But yeah I think I might be over dramatic. It can be when it hurts from the beginning it’s in your mind that it’s carrying on hurting, I’ve heard that can happen anywayI can’t even pick teddy up with both hand and I work in primark that needs my hands when heavy stock

    @Shaunie It sounds to be like perhaps you should rest it for a little bit, that might help it to heal and ease the pain. Maybe try not to pick Teddy up until it feels better? Are you on furlough at work at the moment? Now's the best time to let your arm rest if you're not going to be at work for a few weeks! 

    It sounds like what you're talking about it mind over matter? Like how when you're ill you'll only feel as ill as you think you do, if you tell yourself you're not ill, then you won't feel as ill! That could be what's happening maybe

    Trigger Warning - Self-Harm 
    You mentioned you had done it recently, make sure you've cleaned the area with the cuts - that might help it feel better. Or you could always put a really cold cloth over it to help soothe it!

    Ahaha thank you @Aidan  and @Eleanor

    yeah that’s exactly what I mean. Mind over matter. 

    Tomorrow at my blood tests I’m really hoping she tells me to go to walk in centre cause I’m so scared lol

    and yeah I’m on furlough! Doing nothing so my mind could be overthinking it lol. Does probably need some rest

    i swear I’m never self harming again

    @Shaunie Ah best of luck for your blood tests! You can definitely ask for some advice on what to do there! Give you arm a rest like you said and see how it goes, talk it easy :) I hope being on furlough is going alright for you! And make sure you get some sleep at some point!

    TW_self harm



    Showed it to the person who was doing my blood test and she got the doctor in. The doctor said the nerves need to re grow and will be very sensitive for awhile and will hurt my whole arm for awhile. I didn’t know nerves can regrow 
    it hurts just not as bad as yesterday so that’s good 

    Said it needs antibiotics cause of redness and swelling which I can not be bothered to collect later 
    But anyway atleast I will be able to have some function in my left arm soon! Literally was so scared I’ll never be able to use my arm properly lol and gave me lots of bandage stuff so that’s good cause never have them cause they’re actually expensive
