The Psychosis recoverer wants to work in mental health

9/5/2018

Still all good, back at work now after a long week off looking after my nieces.  At 9pm I suddenly remembered while sat networking on my phone that I needed to put on a load of laundry, so I've just done that and now of course I have to wait for that to finish before I can go to bed. 

I don't really like hanging up the washing at 10.30pm when I'm half asleep, especially when it's mostly underwear as it is tonight, but I'm sharing too much. 

I haven't had even a thought of anxiety today, lucky me and I hope I don't tomorrow either.  Downstairs on the TV is a programme about Meghan Markle, lovely woman, and good luck to her and Harry.  I've spent a lot of my free time today searching out people on social media with an interest in mental health who might like my website and writing them a quick note to advertise it. 

Since doing that at 4pm I've had over two hundred hits on my humble little site, such is the power of Twitter and Facebook to reach lots of people in a flash.

I've been waiting to hear back from the mental hospital in town that I attended when I was seriously unwell 12 years ago, as I have applied to do some work as a peer support worker there.  I have been told that I am a shoo-in because it's only part time and voluntary at the moment, but I hope, and have been told that it could quite likely turn into a full time paid role. 

It feels like a natural career progression for me to work in mental health, and I'm quite enthusiastic to start.
