useful start and frustrations.

I was well enough to get to see the Disability Advisor so that was the very useful start, but then only had energy to spend a short time on the editing

Psychologically I have not been up to the challenge of editing so again a good sign health wise that I had the courage to walk into the department where I always get the feeling that I am greeted by some of the staff there with a sense of despondency and ask for their help. Despite the huge list of students waiting for help I was ready for the challenge and sat waiting for the staff to finish with them and come and help me. 40 minutes later I had tried everything I could try: I realised no one was coming and my energy was gone. I wrote an email to the staff to say I was going, popped back to their office to see if they were still helping other students, only to see everyone was working i.e. they had forgotten me, so I left fuming and belittled. When you have no energy and no money you can do without such editing days. It took two hours to get home because of the snow, and this morning I felt very ill again. But hopefully I can get an extension because of my continuing health problems and I can really confront my fears and get on with the editing.
