A place to exhale

A place to exhale

Well the eggshells I've been in at my mums with her husband have finally reached a limit. Mum has been talking about leaving her partner after she's been more aware of the behaviours and how unhealthy they are.

Today he made a statement about splitting and assumed mum would leave the house as he stated she is choosing someone over her own husband. Not to be mean but they've been together 10 years and he's not a parent and I'm her daughter of 35 years who has just been working through a sever disability. We have just equipped the house and he thinks we should leave?. Logic is telling me he has always been like this and I was just the last thing but it's hard to not take it personally and not be triggered by own experiences.

Anywya mum has gone to work and he's here slamming doors and banging and I'm just hiding in my room trying to avoid conflict and stay calms, while also not worrying what the next days entail after already so much displacement.

ah life is surely never boring.

Hi @tyme

i don't know if you know the answer but I've tried to register for the sane guided program twice this month. The emails say that you should hear within 24 hours. Just not sure if I'm doing something wrong? Any tips?

Hey @Former-Member ,

Did you sign up with the same email as you use for the forums? If so, I’ll follow up for you.

Sorry to keep you waiting.

Thanks @tyme @yes I believe so. It's ok I thought I must of not done right or something. I am pretty used to no or slow responses now but just reread the email and saw that is says 24 hours and thought oh maybe I did something wrong 😂

Usually, you get a phone call withing 48 hours, and then access to the Guided service portal @Former-Member

I won't be able to chase it up until Monday though.

Hey @Former-Member ,

I've just checked your Guided Service account. Looks like you were enrolled in the Guided Service on 3rd Oct. Does that ring a bell?
