    just be honest about what you have tried to do, and how you are feeling now ........ the two are not necessarily connected are they?

    but if they are then it is up to you to decide what you want to do, the doctors we see need to treat all of us not just the label! :wink:

    I hope that you get some help and some useful advice to help you - you deserve it after all your struggles.

    Oh Chrisov
    He will be pleased to know you have not given up and have spirit I reckon. Yes he might worry that it has made things worse, but as Wonky says the two might not be connected eh?
    Good luck from me :)

    Hello Christov, I hope that your consultant is glad that you are able to do some work. I wouldn't have thought that retirement would happen unless you felt that you couldn't manage. Anyway the very best of Good Luck!!! Love Sue

    Hi Chrisov,

    He's not allowed to judge you on whether you work or not, it's your choice at the end of the day - he's not your Dad. :| He should you support you whatever you decide to do. It must do your self esteem a power of good knowing that you're able to work and he should applaud that - I do.

    Luv Legs :D
    Love, Legs x

    sounds like wise words - we have to think about the impact of everything we do as well as what we want to do don't we :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: gets really frustrating at times.

    hope you keeping warm.

    HI Chrisov
    At least the snow is giving you a little breathing space.
    Your professor/consultant sounds really lovely you know. I guess you will know what to do.
    Whatever you decide We are still here for you too.
