Re: not coping

I’m not being rude but like is it really a good idea to be writing about clients you work with on an public forum pretty much saying it’s annoying that they are disabled, I know it’s like relatively anonymous but I think it’s the principal

Re: not coping

I have never mentioned names, or anything personal about the clients i work with. it more just saying that it is tiring being a support worker and some of the things they are exhibiting such as high behaviours can be tiring esp since im working double shifts to help them all out right now. but yes @ArraDreaming i will be more careful

Re: not coping

i also apologise if you felt i was judging @ArraDreaming thats not the case, more that im working my butt off at the moment and with some increasing challanges it has become quite tiring for me as a worker not as a judgment on the clients

@outlander nothing you say on here is wrong. You are simply saying what you feel and everyone has a right to express themselves. So keep talking hon, we are here to listen and support.

Re: not coping

I dont think so @outlander you never come across as anything but supportive and caring.

My day has been ok. Just did some things around the house and some supermarket shopping.
