Hi @EchoGirl and welcome
Hi everyone else who has checked in this morning
Unproductive day here 🥺
I had hoped to make progress on an accreditation I need to complete to hopefully secure some work later this year but procrastinating and time wasting prevails.
I did have the opportunity to catch up with some former work colleagues for coffee. That was nice. Although hilights my resentment surrounding the decision to move on. And the resulting lack in capacity.

@Shaz51 thank you for the coffee! I hope you are well my sister. I've moved but the cost of living is terrible and I don't think i csn afford to look after my mental health. Today I feel completely alone and just want to scream.
Hugs to you dear one 🫂

Hello @Healandlove, I can hear today is feeling hard for you... please know we are here to support you. It really sounds likes things have built up for you lately, so what if you did scream, stomp, cry, dance, shake it out? Would you be open to exploring that and seeing how you feel? 💛☺️

@Shaz51 @AuntGlow thank you for your kind words 🙏🏻
We've moved homes. Things are stressful financially and I continually feel like rejection follows me in life.
Family estrangement, husband with cptsd, aging parents who are growing emotionally detached.
I feel like a rejected small child.
We have couple therapy this week and I see my psychologist on Friday but feel like there's no end to my suffering and internal turmoil.
I haven't been around the forum because I've just been hanging on day by day. I've thought of you all specially my sister Shazzy
When will I stop feeling rejected?
