Help. Please.

@saltandpepper
Yes my daughters ex is exactly what you said snd more!!! That's why my daughter stayed with us. she couldn't afford rent. She has bought everything for her dsughter. And she's raised her into a beautiful smart caring little girl. He hasn't bought one thing for her.
you will find someone that is right for you. You will. My daughter didn't think she'd meet anyone but she has now snd can't believe the difference.

Jesus. I really feel for her @BlueBay and very glad she had you there during such a Hellish time.

Yeah, well I'm glad she is happy now. I'm not sure about getting into anything serious again really. I thought it a lot when I was married and now that I'm single it makes even more sense. I just don't think I'm made to be in a relationship really. There's just too much baggage there. I'm not an easy person to live with and things tend to be in flux for me a lot of the time. I just don't know how sustainable it is in the long run really.

But I'm ok being alone, relieved even. It's just that it gives me too much time to think and get caught up in all my shit. I guess I'll learn how to manage that too one day. Being alone but not getting sucked into those thoughts.

@Anastasia what's happening with your son? If you don't mind me asking that is

Hey there thanks for the tag @saltandpepper 🙏

Oh God, I'm a broken woman tonight. Feel numb. He's back to self harming after six months thanks to bullying, the latest is in the hospital he's at. I'm so fu$&en angry...haha that felt good...following your lead. Angry with the lack of care, angry that I'm having to be "that interfering mother" angry that he's gone backwards, just angry...but mostly sad, so deeply sad I can feel it in my soul. I've cried a river of tears today to anyone that will listen. hope your not sorry you asked?

Course not @Anastasia I'm really sorry he's going through all this. Fu*king hate bullies more than anything. Wtf is he getting bullied in hospital? Who do I need to punch? He should be safe where he is not subject to more trauma.

Be an interfering mother @Anastasia if you don't then who will?

It is one of my greatest fears, that my kid will end up being bullied in school. It is just the most insidious aspect of being a kid in school. I really feel for you and your son. I hope he can pull through this, life after school is just so much better. Poor bugger. So many people just struggling to get through another day. I wish it was different

Just read your post @Anastasia i feel for you and your son. Sending you love strength and big hugs 🤗❤️ Xx
Hi 👋 @saltandpepper

Hey @BlueBay hows it going?

Thank you @saltandpepper means alot. Thank you @BlueBay. I want to p*nch them too, little ba$t@rds. My boy has a pure soul. Maybe that's why he's a target. I've been in the hospital's face since last night. Can't even explain my headspace, it's not good on so many levels. I spent hours today on phone to NDIS and the like making enquiries for new supports. Massive shake up, going to ruffle feathers, don't care...someone has to. Its all take, take, take the money, no results...enough. All these so called professionals, pftttt, it's time my boy takes and benefits and gets results. I won't stop till that happens or it k1lls me. It might but as long as he's sorted so got a long way to go yet. Will do more tomorrow, document it all, write more emails, follow things up and then all my balls will be in the air to ultimately create the avalanche of "good things" ahead for him. God I hope so S&P. I've nearly lost him before and I feel like he's on the edge of the cliff and the rocks are slipping...

Tell me about you if you like? Ive seen you here for some time, it's nice to connect with you 🙏

Aw @Anastasia I really hope he can pull through this. He doesn't deserve to suffer. I can't imagine how hard this is for you to deL with as a parent. It breaks my heart to think of going through it. I never want my boy to go through that. And I hear you, the pure soul thing making him a target, it's just awful isn't it? Just wrong. You sound really strong @Anastasia charging ahead and taking control of the situation. You're doing everything you can, I think that's amazing. I wish I could do something, help somehow. I hate to think of kids struggling like that.

YeH nice to chat to you too @Anastasia I'm always happy to chat to anyone on here about whatever. Not much to tell really, just an average person doing average things and living an average life. That about sums me up I think

Thank you @saltandpepper 🙏

I hope your boy never is a victim 🙏

Kids are awful.

I'm sure your not average, I bet there are things you can do that some can't!

I read you like to help people, that makes you feel like you have a purpose, feel good about yourself. Personally I think that's far from average. I think you're pretty special and I am glad I found you here.
