This waiting is enough to make someone sick. Finally get call about seeing surgeon now that hes back from holiday and they cant see me till the 22 to discuss the keyhole surgery to get a biopsy.. I just feel absolutely useless...
Good morning Frazzled at least you have a date now! Nothing you can do but sit tight and wait, just try and keep busy to take your mind off of it. Worrying won’t bring it any sooner x
Oh I know this. It's just for the keyhole biopsy. My main worry is the 18yr old daughter who lives with me shes wrecking havoc in my life at the minute and nothing I try is making it easier ..
Was she like this before your diagnoses? Or is this something she has started since you have known? I am just wondering if it is because she doesn’t know how to cope so is reacting in this way.
Have you tried sitting her down and explaining how you are feeling and that you cannot cope with her behaviour at the moment? Is there a family member or friend that you can confide in that could maybe chat with your daughter ? X
She has always been a bit like this it got worse in April when her grandfather died and it's just gotten worse. She has ADHD to the highest spectrum but while she lived with her dad he disnt set up things at school he didnt medicate and shes off the rails abit. It makes me feel like a bad parent cause I dont know how to deal with her shes mean and nasty.. it makes me so on edge I feel sick most days with dreed.. and yeah I talk to my eldest but my 18 yr old has decide she hates her to... honestly I'm at a loss
Im sorry to hear that. It’s not something I have experience of, but I would think there are things in place to support teenagers with their mental health, especially as she already has an ADHD diagnoses.
I would speak to your GP about this, as there must be platforms he can refer your daughter too. It’s certainly an added stress you do not need at the moment x
