After the directions hearing the court have ordered that I get a letter from my doc to say I went to see him to give up weed when I did, They also said I've got to take a hair strand test and complete a spips course by the end of this month.
Now Ive got my letter from doctor and sent it off to cafcass, the courts and my ex, I've had the nurse round to collect a hair sample the result will be back next week and I've book myself on to the spips course next week too.
Think is I can't stop thinking about my girls I miss them so much they're on my mind 24/7 ive had hardly any sleep for he past 2 nights, I'm keeping myself busy at work every day, doing weights when I get home and eating really well but I can't stop thinking.
I've been cannabis free for 15 weeks now and I bet im still suffering withdrawals from that I've just started crying at work as another engineer was asking about the girls its a living nightmare, I'm getting so down in the dumps I don't think i'm depressed I just wish I could stop thinking.
has anyone got any ideas on how i try and stop thinking or ways to cope with not seeing your children, I haven't got family near me and I'm not seeing anyone so feel a bit lonely if I'm honest 🙁
...you've already done so much to help yourself through this ordeal Slim...have you thought about meditation, or even yoga? Keeping busy is one thing and its great to take your mind off your troubles but mediation and yoga offer inner calm which I think would be helpful.
See if you have a local yoga class run by Buddhists in your area, or check out some online meditation techniques there are plenty that are free to download.
Never tried it myself, but perhaps martial arts or boxing - constructive ways to get stress out of your system.
As it happens I dj to Yoga classes in america It looks [censored] hard work although I found myself just looking at all the fit american chicks 🙂
Yeah I'm thinking of starting Karate again I used to love it, the past 2 days have been [censored] never been so down in the dumps although I've cheered up tonight been pumping the iron big time and stuffing my face, I've put on 2 stone since giving up smoking the weed and fags 🙂
I'm not surprised to see so many stressed out Dad's awake at these early hours. I had a bolt out of the blue CSA demands letter and I haven't slept since getting the letter. I'm hoping to get some help so I know which way is up...good luck with the stress - I found exercise to be helpful but it didn't block all the thinking.
It can be very stressful not seeing your children I know how your feeling remain positive and optimistic. Good luck
...I think Slim has found the perfect way to de stress.... A couple of trips to Ibiza, sun, sea and good music...I'm sure he'll be on later to tell us all about it! 8)
Yup.......it has certainly helped.......I feel like the walking wounded, I've done/doing all I can so what will be will be 🙂
Hi slim, I attended the spip course I thought it was quiet useful. Did they say what would happen if you didnt attend the course? As I think my x partner didn't turn up, all I know is that the court are told about this.
