Having another breakdownz

Having another breakdownz

Hi everyone and anyone,

i am really struggling tonight, im not sure why, im crying and having severe panic attacks. it was mums birthday today and i tried to give her the best day possible. she is 77, maybe that has something to do with it. i have severe seperation anxiety from my parents, the last time i was away from them for the night was 1994.

im not sure how i will ever cope once she is gone.

im sorry i am really struggling tonight. i have not been sleeping well and have not been feeling well for a while now either.

Not feeling well or sleeping well will not help either xxx

Re: Having another breakdownz

Hello @Jacques I'm sorry to hear that you're struggling at the moment, it sounds really tough for you. I can understand the separation anxiety when you think about her being gone but maybe for right now you can try to think of the good moments that you've had with your mum.

Is there a highlight from today that you can think of?

We're here for you always ❤️.

thank you @Shaz51 and @MissGremlin i have just come into mum to talk to her. to tell her what is going on. im having a complete breakdown. i knew it was comming. just was not expecting it so quick.

i took mum out for breakfast this morning @MissGremlin she had pancakes and berries. i had the same, then i got her a black forest cake and we had chinese for dinner. she had a wonderful day until i messed it up just now.

@Jacques that sounds absolutely wonderful. You haven't messed it up though, try to be gentle with yourself ❤️. I'm glad you've gone in to talk to your mum and I'm sure she understands how hard things are for you right now. Maybe you could sit and have a cuppa together to help settle a bit.

Sounds like a great day with your mum. I don't think you've messed up anything.
