Hey @Sunnyside226 just wanted to stop by and say hello. I’ve been reading along and following what’s been happening for you the last few days, sorry haven’t really been up to posting much though. But did want to say that you are doing an amazing job under the circumstances that you find yourself.
Glad that you have found us lot here and can have a place that you hopefully feel safe to talk and share. 💕

I just got yelled out because the baby was crying

I'll talk later if anyone wants too 😊

Hey @Sunnyside226 ,

Do you live with other people so that you got 'yelled at'? You never cease to amaze me with your ability to have 3 children with you.

Is the baby still in hospital?

What are you doing today? Plans?

Hi @Bow

Hey @tyme I have my own house with the partner 😃

I got yelled at in the shops because bub was crying

Plans for today, we went to the skatepark, pet shop so the kids can see the puppy's and kitty

We spent 1 hour looking at the fish going around and around 😂

Do you have plan @tyme what you up to today?

Awwww, poor baby @Sunnyside226 . And poor you! You don't deserve to be yelled at. Are you okay? Is that the 2 year old that was yelling?

I have a 3 year old here who yells the house down. She will sprawl herself out on the shopping centre floor screaming to get what she wants..... it's my sister's kid.

Lol, I'm glad you went to the pet shop, but ONE HOUR looking at fish?! They obviously don't have fish at home! At least you used an hour up.

How's your brother and partner? Will they be helping with the kids at all? Or do you have to have them full time? It's a lot for one person.

Haha yes kids are good at screaming in the shops 😂

It was a person in their 30's that yelled at me because the baby was crying and the 4 year old had ran off

You think they would of seen fish before it was a long one hour tho never again or any time soon 😂

I have them full time for a while it depends on how everything goes

My brother and his partner are very stressed my brother called today to tell me it could be longer @tyme

The kids are having a nap and now I am sitting here talking to you

Is it okay if I talk to you @tyme ?

I'm not okay everything is hurting I'm having a meltdown

Hey @Sunnyside226 tyme has finished up for today but I'm hanging about. That sucks that your brother might be longer, that's so much on your shoulders! Any idea how much longer?

Hey @Jynx he doesn't know yet he will keep me updated

I am about to cry my chest is hurting I'm having a panic attack or anxiety attack everyone I have message is busy my body is tingly I am not coping with this I have no one to talk to

@Sunnyside226 I know the feeling well, it's very hard to sit with but it WILL pass, always remember. Take long, slow breaths. My fav breathing technique to help with panic is 4-7-8:

Big breath in for four counts, hold it for seven, then exhale slowly over eight counts (the 'counts' don't have to be a measure of seconds, just whatever feels comfortable).

The reason it works is because when we breathe in, our heart rate increases, then it decreases when we breathe out, so making the exhales longer means the heart will start to slow down, reducing feelings of panic.

If you wanna chat to someone, you could always try calling Beyond Blue, or if things get really heavy for you, chat to Lifeline. Take it slow hun, one step at a time. This will pass, takes maybe 30-40 minutes for adrenaline to work its way through the body once you've started to calm. I'm here with you 💜
