Emotional and physical pain together are so hard!

I'm feeling uneasy about your reference to an ambulance at the moment. Did you mean that in a literal or metaphorical way @Former-Member?

What are you doing at the moment? Have you taken anything for the pain?

Hi @Former-Member

Sounds like everything is really overwhelming tonight because of the pain, both emotional and physical, piling up. Don't forget that lifeline can provide crisis support if you are feeling unsafe. They have a chat option as well as phone number to call. Stay safe and look after yourself tonight.

@Former-Member

Yeah i know @Former-Member

[Former-Member]

It might help to put some ice or heat on it @Former-Member. Or take a bath? Do you have a nurse-on-call kind of line you could check with tonight? They might be able to point you towards something that could help

[Former-Member]

Dont think they can help with emotional distraught @Former-Member

[Former-Member]

Im heading off now @Former-Member.
Hopefully i make it through the rest of the night

[Former-Member]

You're right - they probably can't help with that. They may be able to help you with the physical pain if you wanted though.

I'm going to try and sleep now. I know you know where to get crisis support if you need.

Stay safe and take care tonight. See you around tomorrow hopefully

Thanks @Former-Member sleep well
