I thought I'd start a discussion where we can check in with members and use this space to keep in contact. It's a space to be able to say how you really feel and it's a space for the good, the bad and the ugly moments in our lives.

That is a tough topic @Sans911 Not surprised you are having a little difficulty with it. It is good that you have made a start though - maybe get some more done later when your mum leaves. Keep us updated hey

@Sans911 @I had a quick look online at a Psychology Today article about that. Very big topic by the looks, but quite fascinating too.

Not easy, but hopefully will help you process done if the past stuff too @Sans911 ..... with some self-compassion in there somewhere. When we are trying to survive difficult circumstances we only know to respond with the resources to hand, and the wounded feelings we are experiencing at the time ..... and we all do that.
Please be gentle with yourself ..... and wishing you a good assignment outcome ......
Sitting here with you 💜
