Not Coping

Not Coping

Hey everyone how are you all?

@RiverSeal @Shaz51 @NatureLover @tyme @Former-Member @Eve7 @Former-Member @amber22 @Jynx @FloatingFeather

I'm not doing great at all today. I'm feeling down. I also keep beating myself up for everything and feel like I'm just failing. I need a break from everything. It's getting so hard that I don't know how to keep going anymore especially since I can't talk to anyone around me as they are leaving me or don't understand.

Hope you don’t mind me reaching out I just really need a chat and though I could come on here and vent and talk for a bit.

Thank you

Re: Tw Not Coping

Her husband finally agreed to a nursing home 2 years ago @amber22. He is 92 this year and was her carer until then. With a bit of help from my mum and me. In the beginning I would be the only one to pull her out of an episode. I’m her favourite grand child. It’s a horrible disease.

Im an awesome mum. I just tell her to get over it. 😂 Mind you I keep the house cooler than I like for her and give her ice cubes. I also have a small dog pool in the backyard for her!

I hope you all get well soon @ArraDreaming

Re: Tw Not Coping

That was a good decision, I find that when people are that old it is better for them to be in nursing homes for their own safety, and also for the peace of mind for their families to know that they are safe.

Awww, that is so cute. A little dog pool sounds amazing, I bet she loves that! @Captain24

I am going to start to wind down for the night in a few mins, I hope that you do too!

Thank you for that @Captain24 yeah the rehab hospital didn’t have the right services or care she needed. Yes it has helped I’m not as worried as I was when I could out.

Hi @amber22

I’m at work, but I wouldn’t say I’m feeling that great today. How are you though?

Re: Tw Not Coping

I'm sorry to hear you aren't feeling that great today. Is there anything particular on your mind? @Birdofparadise8

I'm doing alright today, feeling a bit tired but getting through it with baby steps
