Hey @Sunnyside226 ,
I hope you don't mind me making this thread for you.
I just wanted you to know that the whole forums community is here to support you through this challenging time.
Please look after yourself. I recognise it's hard to look after three small children on your own.

Oh that's really rough @Sunnyside226. Hopefully with the kids down for a nap, you can just focus on yourself for a bit. Don't forget to take some slow, deep breaths hun. Do you have anything else on today?

Aww hun, it sounds really rough to be toughing it out all on your own @Sunnyside226.
If you need some time to yourself, that is all good. But I can still support others, and I can support you, if you think it could help 💜

@Sunnyside226 with all the extra responsibilities and not enough support, I'm not surprised you're feeling this way! Have there been any updates from your brother, is he returning soon?

I'm crying so hard and I don't feel good enough @Jynx
He's back in a week or two

@Sunnyside226 you are definitely good enough hun! You are in a really tough spot right now, way out of your usual comfort zone, so it makes sense that it all feels too much.
A week or two! That is both very soon, and probably also feels ages away considering everything. But you've got an end date, that always helps.
What can you do for yourself to help you soothe and regulate this evening? Do you find walking helps, or doing something creative?

I think I've done enough walking/ running today the 4 year old kept running away after being yelled at all day by a 4 year old because I didn't do nothing right has she said I just need adult connection or chat @Jynx
I feel worthless because I don't feel like I'm doing anything right
I wish it would stop the crying and feeling down
How's you? And kitty cats? 💜💜🐈🐈⬛
