Shifts (3 shifts). Was so fed up of calling in every week saying still no better I'm so sorry etc. plus it wasn't helping my anxieties with it looming over me. I wouldn't go out to try and feel better and now I'm like stuck in te house from not doing so. Scared to go out due to panic attacks and phobia. However I'm hopping that now I have left work that it will help me get over my problems before baby gets here :) I'm having to start CBT again although it find help me the last time round :/ .. Any ideas other than pills to help me get over this again!?

My tablets are working well for me now (sickness ones) just make me drowzey so going to see how I get on without one in the middle of the day. .. Fingers crossed.

Oh hun, really hoping things start picking up for you soon!!! Xx
 
Thank you! :) turns out I'm not really entitled to any help except maternity allowance which will start 11th October. So once I get my last pay on 26th aug I will have to try make some money by selling! :)
Who would have thought selling a wii console to be so hard?! Lol x
 
Could you do a car booty? Is there anything you enjoy doing that you could make and sell? Something not stressful or straining but would also keep you occupied and take your mind off other anxieties? Card making or stitching? Painting/sketching? Cakes? eBay can turn over a decent amount for unwanted clothes etc? Xx
 
I mention the creative stuff as I remember going to CBT years ago and she encouraged me to do something just for me, write in a diary even. Was just thinking if you made things, you may make some money from it too! :) xx
 
I hope you feel better soon hun :) Crikey with Xmas looming im surprised no one has snapped your hand off wanting a Wii console haha. My wages this month have been crap tbh. Due to sickness! Xxx
 
Just tri hopping, I got signed off for 4 weeks in total because of a back back and hip and felt sooooo much better. Stresses you out thinking and worrying about calling them doesn't it. Hope you feel better soon xx

How about just starting with some things you enjoy then set up a page on Facebook or go along to a car boot sale and see whats on offer. I've 'liked' loads of Facebook pages who are sellers o creative products, have a look through my liked pages for some inspiration maybe? Do it as a hobby and see how it goes, don't put any pressure on yourself to sell it, just use it to give yourself some 'you' time doing something you enjoy. Maybe try making baby themed bits that could be personalised? Get some plain grows and do some stitching on ready for your bubs? Even start by doing something ready for bubs coming just for you? Its a kick start to something? Xx
 
Went to Asdas today and picked up some noodley things called mug shots. You empty the sachet into a mug and poor hot water into it and then leave it to stand for five mins, then you can eat! They are small, easy and delicious! I thought it may help with your sickness if you're not really eating much. I have them when I'm having an off sicky day, and bubs loves them, she dances around whilst I'm eating them lol. The chicken one is my fave but there's a variety on offer!
Thought I would tell you as they help me on days where I can't keep much down! Xxx
