It's okay Phillipa, I sometimes have trouble keeping track of my own meds.
I was pleased that the grant came through because now the agency will be expanding their education programme (they go into school to talk to kids about mental health). I think it's so important for kids to know about mental illness - what it is and what it isn't.
I used to do a lot of grant writting for one of my jobs, so that is why I volunteered to do it. I didn't expect it to come to fruition because many agencies were competing for the grant.
Today didn't go very well. I had trouble expressing myself and forming complete sentences. This is for a group that has nothing to do with mental illness so I don't tell them about my problems. But really I was quite embarrassed with my inability to communicate. :(
Hugs for you Phillipa!
Maxime
> I'm sorry Maxime. I mixed your meds up with someone elses. It gets hard to remember what everyone is on. Please don't be so hard on yourself. Again, you demonstrate how caring of others you are. I think it's wonderful that you got the Grant. You must have worked very hard. Now, please take care of you, too. I understand how you feel about taking care of others. It helps with depression when you know you are doing important work for others that can't help themselves. It becomes almost like an antidepressant. I hope you will be able to do your work tomorrow. I'll be thinking of you. Fondly, Phillipa
