Iām at the stage where I have one good eye and the other one hasnāt been done yet ,that will be early tomorrow morning.To read something for now ,Kindle reader or phone screen I have to cover the eye thatās already been done as I canāt read out of that eyeā¦Iāll buy a cheap pair of reading glasses from a chemist. I think they want me to wait about a month for my eyes to adjust before I get a new pair of prescription glasses for reading . I had to buy a cheap pair of sunglasses as my eyes are very sensitive to sunlight.
I already been to my first post op appointment and they said it went well

Thereās often a huge stigma about medications for things but they are the best things so glad to hear youāve got a diagnosis and then a plan for levelling things out to help have a good life. Hope thereās not too many side affects with the meds and that it has a positive impact for you.
We have so much more knowledge and awareness of mental health than even only a generation ago so thereās so much that can be done now compared to the past.
Also great to hear! Hope the other eye gets done tomorrow morning and goes just as smoothly and the recovery goes smoothly too.

Since this is the random thread Iāll join in here with my experience.
I can usually go a few days before I start to have issues but one thing I noticed since going on my anti-depressants is that while my moods are so much more stable the highs I have are often higher but the lows I can experience can be so much lower and can hit with absolutely no warning and last from only a few seconds to a few weeks and just are so hard and tiring and I need to carefully watch everything I do to make sure I donāt do anything stupid, permanent or I would regret. Thatās why news today of Jock and in the past with Danny Frawley and others really hit me hard.
For those who are similar, and Iām sure thereās a few, please look after yourselves. Check in with how youāre feeling and put in your strategies for getting through or reach out to people you can trust.

Becoming very common with Seek ads Iāve noticed. Full of grammatical and spelling errors. Not a great look.

I live very close to where two level crossings are being removed and my street will be closed from tomorrow for three months (ugh) with only local traffic permitted. Weāve all been given a bright yellow sticker with the instructions to āplace inside windscreen on bottom left passenger sideā, which is fine, except the adhesive gum is on the reverse of the sticker so theyāre not going to be able to see itā¦

I think the sticker is meant to be placed inside windscreen like the car registration label used to be. Did you contact the authorities about the error?
