Bad days are the death of me!

[imsotired]

hi guys,
A few days ago I went driving with my mum also I just had an operation on my back of Friday as since my back still hurts I think that what I did wasn't normal as after an operation you need to rest after so I don't strain my back. my mum said that I did a good job walking but I can only focus on the negative things and when a bad thing happens like that, I get rlly upset about it as for me it is not normal to be sad as I never felt sad before or had anxiety. I feel so numb and I don't know what to do
like I cant even speak it hurts to speak I know I will get better as it always does but I don't know when.... half of the time I feel like I am wasting my life just lying on my bed staring at the wall and watching tv whereas I could be doing other productive things. feeling numb rlly gets in the way of everything I feel sick that I cannot feel anything once the numb feeling is gone I can live on and do my daily things.

You need to find yourself a hobby. One you can do at home as you recover. I had 3 operations last year. Had to rest up for a few months when I came home. Took up jigsaw making and other similar things. Just staying in bed won't get you very far. Just make you very depressed. Try find something you have always wanted to do.

As for your back? Ask a doctor, via phone, what you are meant to be doing. What you should not be doing. Just so you know.

There is nothing wrong with you, and there is nothing wrong with recovering and having a recovery, its for the best.
