Hello @Paulette I understand where you are coming from. I'm in a similar situation I hate my current work, so have to concentrate on the positives like you said, paying the rent. Keeping a roof over our heads is fundamental to our wellbeing.

Also if we hang in long enough. Potentially a reference. Try and enjoy the time when you are not there.

I get a lot of enjoyment from the forum. I hope you can too.

Don't let those bullies stand in the way and take from you especially in your leisure time.

Sending you light and love.

Take tiny steps in getting through the evening 💕💜 and sorry to hear of your grief 😔.

Hi @Former-Member

I'm sorry Maggie.

My tears would amount to the millions. I hate crying on here as other people don't deserve it but I'm so lost. I'm so in pain. I question about being here so often....I'm here at work and I just don't know why. I'm paying rent. I don't belong here. My heads breaking nothing makes sense. I'm so alone....I just need some love and support.

Hi @Paulette @No need to be sorry. Just empathetic to your situation

It's ok to cry and be sad.

I got your back and am here to listen.

Sending you all the support that I can xx

• Hi @Former-Member ,

I so appreciate you just being there. Yeah I cry a lot and most just never understand why I cry. It's called desperation fear alone grieving. Even now I grieve the children I didn't have and family members. I'm ashamed to share my grief at times.

Hugs @Paulette ,

I'm sorry this is sounding like it's so terribly difficult for you to stay at your current job. I'm not sure of the ins and outs of your job, but is there ANYONE you can speak to?

Is management also an issue?

Hugs, tyme

Hello @SJT63 , @Carlachris👋😀

Hello Paulette @Paulette @ I'm estranged from my adult daughter 25 I am constantly grieving too. I cry at the drop of a hat.

I have a sister I am estranged from too. They don't understand my illness and blame me for it.

Thats why the forum is so good for people whom understand. We also grieve for our health.

Kind Regards and keep in touch.

No need to be brave just kind to yourself xx

Hi @Former-Member ,

I so feel for you. I can't imagine how painful and terrible it feels being estranged from your 25 year old daughter and also your sister. It's all too much. I do care and you are much loved. At the times those we love so much can't find it in their hearts. I'm truly sorry. We will get through the pain. I've dried my tears for now but the internal pain endures. We have to just be there for each other. My 11 and 13 year old no longer love me but I take another step forward each day. I hope we can heal the pain and time changes us all.

@Paulette I try to see everything in the here and now. I have no doubt these people will love us in the future - just not ATM or are they just not able to express it now ?

Your children are very young.lots of time to change their mind especially depending on their influences.

Sending you love. We never know what the future holds 🤞🍀💜💕

Hugs to you both @Former-Member @Bow - I'm sorry this has happened. Seems so unfair. But I am pleased to see your courage and the steps you have taken to seek connection with others and in a way that is meaningful.

For both of you, please know you are not alone in this.

Hugs
