It's very variable, I had a health issue a few months back and very different approaches from people.

Physical distance, phone in another room during set times eg past a certain evening time or if watching TV. Put on aeroplane mode when out and about.

We've got lettuce growing in ones which were left here when we moved in. New ones will be for tomatoes, a courgette plant and maybe more lettuce, then winter greens through the autumn hopefully.

Planning on sorting out some veg planters we had delivered today, will feel nice to have that sorted.

Felt like he definitely struggled a bit with anxiety / feeling uncomfortable at the start, impressive being able to confront that whilst being filmed. Nice to see reality TV of people just being nice to each other.

Bee experts, if a neighbours put a hive right next to our hedge is it likely to cause an issue? Love bees but it's right next to our compost bins which we regularly use. @drcakeberry.bsky.social @intheflowerbeds.bsky.social ?

There was probably a lot more horrible stuff I missed out. He said the people may be dead now that he mentions but their family would still be alive. If he's only changed names people could still recognise themselves.

He goes to work in social care for the council at one stage and complains people are too 'lefty' and don't like his 'banter' I think we can probably all imagine what that would be like....

I listened to it today. Its unbelievable some1 can write about being abusive towards patients and face no consequences. Regularly getting drunk on shift,being derogatory2patients, misogynistic views, so so many issues. Yes it's an incredibly hard job, but the way they've written about it is awful

Out of the wind yesterday it was such a lovely day on Mendip, we didn't walk that far but it was so nice to just sit in the sun after such a grey winter.

I was taking 5mg which is half of the lowest dose prescribed, urgh!

Did you find it took a while for the amitriptyline withdrawal symptoms to go away?

RV @outdoorperscript.bsky.social · 16/03/2025
I did try that too but got horrible UTI type pain :( hope it helps you.

RV @outdoorperscript.bsky.social · 16/03/2025
Nortriptyline for me, I'd avoided taking anything the whole time I've been in pain, but was really fed up with it last month and gave in. The gastro side effects have made me stop.

Reminding me of benzo withdrawal which I really don't want to be reminded of! Felt terrible this morning but it lifted whilst I was outside, but back to grim again this evening.

Started taking a pain medication last month, did help a bit but side effects intolerable. I took half the lowest dose prescribed but now having horrible withdrawal symptoms trying to get off it. My body is so sensitive to medication, always wondered if its linked to Gilbert's Sydrome which I have

We spent a week near festiniog and hardly saw anyone whilst out and about in the lower hills. I would guess the numbers are probably even higher for the % these days.

I didn't go to the one near us(couldn't face it) but will try and comment online if I can find some spoons.

Its pretty un-user friendly to wade through and comment, but due to gov targets they are having to identify extra sites for potential housing. Nailsea and Backwell badly effected and many of the fields by Weston Big wood :( n-somerset-pp.inconsult.uk/connect.ti/R...

Moel-Y-Gest only 262m high, but packs a punch, the only small hill I've had to abort an ascent, descend to the bottom and start again! Beautiful far reaching views and small rock scrambles.

Yes, it would be interesting to see some actual numbers.

Me too. My work alarm is 7.45 which is horrendously early!

Home working means I can use my lunch hour to clean my house when I have energy, rather than sitting in an office lunch room doing nothing and being too tired to do it after work. Added bonus of being active.

.. not from the civil service as they don't advertise any as fully home working and staff have to fight for adjustments.

I don't know where they expect all these imaginary part time, home working, flexible jobs with supportive employers to come from.

I'm going to write back with 'thoughts' if I find the spoons, they just don't understand what it's like for people in the real world. I want to change jobs but impossible to find a WFH part time job within my abilities. #MadSkyChat

Avoiding the news but then got an email from local MP which pissed me off. Talking about the gov supporting autistic people to get into work zero clue about barriers and for some work make not be possible or appropriate. #MadSkyChat
