It is the upcoming anniversary of my Pop's death which I was reminded of by the anniversary of a death for someone else. It has brought back alot of memories and grief.
Combining that with some other stuff in 'the real world' - I haven't known what to do or where to go. It really felt like I was on my own and really alone again. I haven't coped with any of it at all well.

yes agree agree... we are all at such different stages of what we feel comfortable int alking about and dealing with. Me i feel a bit like a fragile egg with cracking shell and doesnt take much more than a few words to chip me open and leave me oozing mess everywhere! but for others who are ready to delve into more of the specifics of situations or maybe find it easier to describe things i think it must be difficult. Agree completely there was no maliciious intent at all. And im not sure abotu second person but ... its so easy on here to mis read things at times too because intentions can get lost in the writen word without all that other stuff to help convey full meaning.
You are much loved and valued here though @Zoe7 hope that things can settle for you here and you will feel safe again. Hugs!
I am going to have to get ready for bed, hope you bot sleep well! Will be thinking of you both! @utopia
night xx
